Member Testimonials
The instructors, especially Margaret! We also love that the classes are small.
I enrolled my whole family, all of us had wonderful time.
Small classes, knowledgeable trainers and a very caring aquatic’s coordinator Eileen.
All inclusive to the community
Good teachers
I like the people. I like my new team, Ms. Lauren is very nice & awesome. I love my job. Ms. Haley & Ms. Smitha were right about me. Ms. Haley made the right decision about hiring me here @ Southwest YMCA. I am so grateful & excited for Ms. Smitha to be my new boss taking over Ms. Haley's old spot (even though she is working for both Adaptive Programs & Programs Director) she is great at doing both jobs & I am so proud of her. I am also proud of Ms. Haley by working with Townlake Y, she deserves that promotion CONGRATULATIONS MS. HALEY!! WOOHOO
People from all walks of life working out together. Upbeat, positive vibe. Friedly greeting when I walk in the front door.
Classes can be crowded or even overcrowded. Would love to see additional classes added for some that are very popular, esp Bodypump on Saturdays and weekday evenings.

Outdoor lap pool, hours, friendliness of staff, cleanliness of facility.
classes,
I go to the swimming pool, safeguards are kind, responsible and aware. Take care of the testing if the water.
facilities, masters swim program and Janet Risser as Coach. Great people!
I like everything about the Y. I am especially appreciative of cleanliness - especially of the pool and pool area, as well as the respect and friendliness of the staff there (and other Y members as well). I haven't tried any of the group classes yet, as I was just released from an ankle boot due to an injury, but I hope to do so soon.
POOL
I like having child watch and the pool. I wish there were 9 AM VInyasa yoga classes. Lots of gentle, yin, and restorative.
Great variety ( although I wouldn’t mind a chair fitness class on Saturday!) super positive instructors who make you want to come back.
I love the Y. It is welcoming and upbeat. The staff are friendly and helpful, always. The outdoor pool is perfect for my lap training needs and the classes are varied and at convenient times. The personal trainers are second to none and so experienced with all ages and needs. Special shout-out to Andrea Lopez! Everyone should join the Y!
The Y has the equipment and activities I need to get a good workout, and their multiple locations make it convenient. I have one suggestion for the Town Lake location: in the downstairs men's dressing room there are two bathing suit wringers. Please move one upstairs to the pool dressing room.
Water aerobics. Multiple time options. Great instructors.
I mainly use the lap pool. I like that it's outdoors and it's an additional pleasure to share the space with families and kids in a beautiful setting. The locker room is clean and well maintained. Obviously, there is a ton more activities to do there.
I love EVERYTHING about the Southwest Family Y in Oak Hill! Greatest gift! I'm a senior Silver Sneakers member and use they Y for walking on the indoor track and aquatic exercise in both indoor and outdoor pools. Every place on the property is very clean and all personnel are lovely, bright, welcoming and knowledgeable. No words can adequately express my huge gratitude for the Y and all who run it!
I love the variety of classes, although I would like to see more classes offered after working hours. Some of the schedules are just not practical for people who work a typical 9 to 5 and who don't' have the ability to get up at 4 AM.
Also, will the new ballet barre ever be installed in the Pilates room? It has been in the equipment closet for months now and it would be a great to have it. Emily's classes are fantastic and they are popular so and additional barre would really be an asset.
The friendliness of the staff and the members. There is just a feeling of community at all times.
The activities are so good for my health.
Friendly staff.
Childcare. Nuff said. Oh also friendly staff 👍
You've got great pools, friendly staff and cool folks to talk with. Your swimming lessons have been great for my husband!
