Member Testimonials

Varied, responsive to current health and safety issues,

Would like more 9 am classes for seniors. Otherwise you are on the right track. D. Little.

Great instructors and friendly, helpful staff and other members.

I do love the pickleball tournament and swimming lessons here.

Pickle ball. Swimming. Just working out.

I walk the track and exercise using the machines

I played my first pickleball games today, which was great - enjoyed the competition and the people, as expected.

Also, other than wearing a mask in the public areas, NO masks worn on beautiful new courts in the gym, which we all applauded. (and everyone I played with was vaccinated, as well)

You have a great variety of activities and ample facilities for your members. It is very rare that I have to wait for a machine or a swimming lane or any other service you provide. Keep up the good work.

Great! Good organization and everybody respect the social distancing also wearing masks.

Group exercise classes, Chile watch, PNO, camps, family activities

Outdoor classes and the instructors (Kelly M, Kelly J, Suzi B, Claire, Jay A, Mike L, Mary L, Megan L, Diana H are my favorites)

I like that the West Chester YMCA at Airport Rd employees always make the members feel like family.

It’s a great Ymca. I actually prefer it to the Lionvilke Ymca. I live closer to it but prefer the West Chester Ymca. The people are very pleasant and it makes a huge difference.

The competition pool open lap swimming

Just the availability of the facilities whenever we want them

I was not familiar with the lap swimming times and etiquette at this Y and the staff helped me.

I like the variety of group classes as well as equipment. My whole family goes to the Y together and we all have something that interest us. Only drawback is group classes getting so hot with masks on and they never have the fans on to help cool the room.

Always adding new things like pickleball, nice instructors, clean facility.

I like the outdoor classes.

Just reconnecting to the YMCA GBV community. The whole family were regulars in Kennett for over a decade. With relocations, etc., now it’s just me at West Chester. Still, it’s that same wonderful sense of community. Thanks for all you do.

Very well run

Gym. Staff

Haven't used them yet

We like the staff....always willing to answer questions and very helpful. It is a very clean and safe place to workout or attend classes.

I pretty much use the access to equipment and haven't engaged in programs or activities.

I like the variety of programs and activities. I do wish the Brandywine campus would stay open until 9pm like the other locations.

I do not participate in any "Programs and activities". I use the fitness center machines and track 2-3 times/week. I used to bring my granddaughter to swim lessons BC (before Covid).

I like being able to take early morning classes.

Please continue to have outdoor classes. Outdoor yoga would be greatly appreciated.
