Member Testimonials

I love all the Silver Sneakers classes. The Cardio classes on Mon-Wed-Fri and totally full. It would be nice to have other sessions of this class and other senior classes. Maybe late afternoons? Everyone has different schedules and commitments, so adding late afternoon classes may work for some - including myself!

The only complaint I have is the parking. Between 530-7 parking is incredibly difficult. I would suggest scheduling each activity 30 mins apart so more spots closer to the facility would open up. Besides that everything is great

There have recently been some new programs added including Silver Swans, ballet for adults, and I love it. It’s great for the body, posture and movement poise. Our teacher is the dance director and she’s fantastic. It’s also been wonderful to meet other members who share this interest and we decided to do a group outing to a ballet also!

I have belonged to numerous exercise clubs over the years and for the first time ever I found a class I love at the Y, i.e., Silver Sneakers Cardio with both Tina and Barbara. I also spoke to Cindy with whom I have scheduled some training sessions. Talking with her on the phone I just know she will be the right trainer for me.

Variety, frequency, friendliness

pickle ball is pretty popular now；hopefully there are more indoor time slots during weekends at umly

Love to swim in the indoor and 50 meter pools.

I like the wide variety of options at UMLY. I appreciate the friendly workers. I love being able to grab a quick cup of coffee on my way out the door.

I have used the personal training program and gym. My trainer gave me confidence, kept me on course towards my goals, and gave me new exercises and pushed me to be better. The gym has all the equipment anyone would need to achieve their goals and maintain their progress. I like that they have redundant machines so that more than one person can work the same machine. Well maintained space and very friendly and helpful staff.

You provide knowledgeable instruction for the Silver Sneaker age gtoup.

I like easiness of registering/enrolling online and the diversity of the classes offered.

I love the Deep Water Aerobics class taught by Devon. She is a fantastic instructor and ensures that the class is both challenging and fun. Overall, she is a gem!

I also like the variety of the equipment in the gym, which includes so many different exercise opportunities. My husband will be joining the Y this year.

Great facilities! Courteous people!
I wish I had joined years ago!

Thanks

The instructor’s are very knowledgeable and kind.

Love the pool and gym. Friendly staff, good location.
The morning coffee is the icing on the cake.

Great value if a member, clean facilities, extended operating hours.

plethora of activities for all ages and variety if sessions. staff are friendly and eager to help you to quickly adapt to the environment

Like: The pools and the gym, the hours, the greeters at the lobby.
Do Not Like: the excessive electricity use. Too many lit ads are just telling members that waste is acceptable.
Do Not Like: cut down trees from the green areas have not been replaced. We need more trees for a peaceful environment.
I do not like: the You Are Beautiful board on the road. Still do not understand its purpose, as much as I read it.

I built my house 43 years ago to be close to the UMLY !

I enjoy playing pickle ball and working out at the upper main line Y

Your organization is simply the best by any measure. Thanks for being you.

Love the Silver Sneakers class Yet you need to know it’s too crowded!!! You upped the number of participants who can register. People are waitlisted while others come without ever registering. There’s not enough floor space and often not the desired number of weights in the poundage wanted.

Great variety of programs, helpful people. I'm a member primarily for the pickleball program which is great.

I like the front hall facilities and overall the variety and amount of exercise equipment and programs. The outdoor pickleball courts are fabulous! The indoor ones just ok--dont like the inability to raise the basketball hoops, the glare from the windows, etc.

I like your campus.....and enjoy the outdoor classes.

The Staff members with whom I mainly have contact at the Front Desk, the Gym & the Pool, could not be nicer more knowledgeable and helpful. The gym--the gear there and the fellow&sister instructors, along with all the gym workout folks-- is by far the best I have experienced. & the swim pools & lifts are clean and well maintained.

On a personal note, I have been wheelchair bound for the c. 57 years since I got blown up in Vietnam. & I am especially appreciative of the entire UMLY environment.
