Lap swim needs more time

Wide variety of programming at the Y. I especially enjoy the deep water aerobics and pickle ball. The fitness center is also very good.

Yoga! (adding a class on Tuesday would be great...)
warm pool swimming

Properly regulated and organized

I love the pools! I also like that the therapy pool area is warm and helps me to get my muscles warm before I do lap swimming.

I like that there’s always opportunities for families to swim together.
I like that there are plenty of personal changing rooms available
I like that there is a machine to ring out your bathing suit when done
The staff are very friendly and say hello and goodbye to you when you come into the pool area

They're good for the whole family. Lots of things for everyone.

Pool and gym

Amazing staff and facilities. Couldn’t ask for more!

Staff is very friendly and helpful; equipment is well maintained and operational; and support for both young and older members is outstanding.

YMCA offers many kinds of sporting activities

Good tennis

I love the Aqua fit classes. I usually work in the mornings so cannot make many classes. I would love an afternoon or evening opportunity. Before the pandemic, I went to Aqua fit 2 nights/week and loved it. We had great teachers, Janet and Mary, and had a real community.

The childcare is amazing! Our daughter is in the early twos class and love how it’s set up by age (early twos and late twos). The class sizes are smaller this way and more collaborative too. We look forward to our daughter having access to all the classes the ymca has to offer too during her day once she goes to preschool. The teachers and staff truly care about our child and communicate daily with us.

Our son loves all the morning activities (gymnastics, swimming, carpenters class). He goes to school in the afternoon and it’s wonderful they offer so many classes in the morning.

We haven’t been able to participate yet in the adult workout classes, but We’ve heard wonderful things about many of the classes. My only recommendation is having a few more early afternoon classes if possible (that’s the best time for me, but only a few classes offered at that time)

What an amazing community!! I grew up going to UMLY camps and now my children get to benefit from everything that is offered here!

The locker room is clean and well maintained. It is warm, a plus for these chilly days ahead.
The Family Pool is perfect for exercising or swimming - whatever your preference.

The staff is wonderful with our children!

They scheduled my daughters at the same time on Saturdays; as a busy parent I really appreciated that. It was great they separated the kids by 2 years, as opposed to dividing them up by three. Toddlers and preschoolers really need to be with kids close in their age developmentally. Coaches were super patient, encouraging and supportive. We will definitely be back next year.

We had a gret experience and appreciate the coaches and facilities very much. They were very good at keeping the kids engaged as well as teaching skills

The staffing facilities are great, the convenient location is perfect and it reminds me of my childhood, because I went here when I was a kid and now I bring my kids here

Pickleball program development.

The instructors in classes I’ve taken are clearly well qualified and engaging and the facility’s well maintained. I like the other members and the family feel of the place.

I mostly use the Y to swim laps. I also like the extensive tennis program and being able to get lessons. I do have a problem with the temperature of the pool water. The B pool is too cold for me to swim laps, the C pool is a little warmer but still too cold, and the family pool is too crowded and has very limited availability.

I enjoy the fitness classes.

Soccer program is great - clearly communicated info, dates, times. In-person experience is excellent - enthusiastic and friendly refs and staff who are motivated not only to teach soccer skills, but how to be a kind team player and show good sportsmanship

I like that upper main line provided coaches. However, the combination of practice and game all in one made it a little challenging. I think having a separate practice during the week and game is better and allows them to learn the game better. In addition, since they practiced all as one big group and not separate teams there wasn’t too much a concept of team displayed. This is specific to soccer.
Lastly, I think that the communications were not the best before it started. I don’t think communicating the week of first week was best. I feel that getting an email at least saying thanks for registering we are working on finalizing teams so we know we’re on the distribution is appreciated.

Sitter service and child watch are awesome! I literally don't know what I would do without it. And the guy at the front desk is super nice! Wonderful place!

Socialization and movement comes together

Great swim classes!

I am a senior and only do Aqua Fit. Our instructor, Rena has done a great job of adapting our workouts to the needs of Covid protection. I've made great friends through the Y.
