Pickleball
The instructor Mr. Bill is absolutely amazing! He is fully engaged, with full demonstration and guidance. Big thanks to him for his energy, love of swimming and kids and amazing coaching skills. I just wish the class size was more manageable for more practice. 10 kids are a lot for 30 min lesson.

New member. So excited about size
so many options of activities to promote healthy activities.
As a senior citizen, I am happy my insurance covers my dues at the Y. I only use the fitness center at this time but feel I should explore other offerings.
There is a variety available. I like the pickleball sessions.
I love spin with Courtney Last name removed!
Our family loves the activities and staff at UMLY!
Great coaches and staff. Good, clean facilities. Water aerobics is especially wonderful.
The outdoor 50 meter swimming pool.
Camps and things offered for children
Updated gym equipment
Spaces to take classes seem larger than the West Chester YMCA near airport road however the staff at both locations were very friendly and welcoming to a new member.
Everything EXCELLENT - Staff friendly and very helpful, absolutely clean everywhere, tons of equipment, lots of classes, several pools inside and outside, and a lot more - a great place to get and stay healthy and enjoy yourself along the way.
There is a large number of opportunities for all ages for people to exercise, learn and experience.
Group exercise! Body pump is my favorite.
Love the outdoor 50M pool. You should allow guests for a fee (e.g., $10). The pool is not very crowded. I would take advantage of it occasionally and therefore come more frequently. I drive 25 miles (40 minutes) to get there and thank you for sending out in advance notifications if there is a 50M closure.
Pickleball
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the West Chester swim crew who have patiently led my daughter, Faith Last name removed to the current level (Stroke 2). One year ago, she used to be the one who was afraid to put her nose under the water, but then over the last summer, she overcame that fear, and I was able to sign her up in Youth Swim Basics at Main Line YMCA.
But then after a couple of months, because of the schedule conflict, we had to come to West Chester site just hoping that she could continue the Basic class, but when Leslie saw Faith outpacing other kids, she instantly recommended her to move up to Intro to Stroke Academy. There were many hoops she had to go through to get the right spot, but she took care of all of the troubles. Ever since then, Faith has really been enjoying the swim classes and flourishing under great teachings/guidance by Ashley and Sean. Faith loves both coaches. :)
Lastly, recently Faith had another struggle as she moved into Stroke 2 and the practice got much more intense, and she wanted to drop off. When I shared this with Leslie, she and her team including Ashley were seen encouraging Faith during the lesson. At the end of the session, Faith came back to me saying "I think I'd like to continue the class" with a big smile.
I really want to thank the whole crew for their passion/love for the kids. Also, the systematic approach the crew is taking is helping kids to step up and go through their challenges. Without their help, Faith wouldn't be swimming like she is now. So, thank you again!
Regards,
Sang
People are friendly, and a variety of programming exists.

More than anything I like the community of families and individuals that gather there for variety of exercises and sports. I like the friendly staff that make us feel at home.
