Member Testimonials
Thanks to community partnership, I get a much better price.
I feel comfortable working out, swimming, and going to group classes even though I’m not skinny and athletic. That culture takes a lot of work to cultivate, and I deeply appreciate it. I also trust that my kids will be safe and have fun while I work out, and I love that we all get to be around people from all walks of life in our community. The Y is truly a community center, and I’m proud to spend 5+ days a week there.

Welcoming. Great Trainers—Especially Emma! Accessibility. Fabulous programs for seniors
The Y is a nice, well cared for facility that allows me to stay in some semblance of a good condition. The staff are friendly and helpful and the resources are plentiful. Now if I could just get my wife to join me in my workouts.
good variety of programming, class and equipment. Friendly staff.
Nice front desk. Good fitness instructors. Clean facility
Numerous classes, friendly staff, clean facility.
This Y is very clean and a lot of the equipment and resources I desire. Unfortunately there are frequently people using weight machines as places to take a prolonged rest, which degrades my experience
Great people who work there! Really friendly and helpful
Friendly front desk
WiFi
Good machines
Everything! The staff and instructors are extremely friendly and helpful. I cannot EVEN believe how all or mostly all of the equipment necessary for taking the classes, such as Les Mills classes, is provided! The variety is unreal! I get bored easily and love trying all the classes from Pilates to Zumba to CRX. And then all the amazing equipment, such as treadmills, elliptical machines, cycles, and weight training machines-WOW. I have had memberships at multiple gyms in several states, and the Platte County YMCA in Parkville is far and away the most user-friendly, comprehensive, state-of-the art facility I have ever used. And I haven't even started in on the amazing pools! They are awesome for workouts and the wade-in pool is ideal for when my grandkids want a day at the pool.
I could go on for days about all the many features. We even had my granddaughter's 5th birthday at the Y, with Mr. Science, and it was SUPER fun!!!!! I love the Y!
It provides all the services I want and need in one place.
The Y educates us on safe and smart exercise. It provides a place to meet people and share the journey of health and wellness. It gives me a place to walk and a place to read. The YMCA is like a small town where people respect others and leaders inspire us to stay motivated and safe. I am grateful for the YMCA in Parkville.
Super friendly staff!
It is full of happy people.
Clean lockers, pool, courteous, helpful & friendly staff!
Variety of machines
The instructors were great! They truly cared and managed to work with every child individually but also together within the entire group setting!
