Lots of opportunities for yoga classes. Ample parking even during the busy times across the street/behind the building. Range of new/niche fitness classes though I typically try one then return to my tried and true.
Sabrina’s group exercise classes
Very clean and the employees are helpful and friendly. I like the atmosphere and the facilities.
I really loved that when I did basketball, and baseball, my coaches were amazing!
My instructor makes class fun. She monitors our movements to avoid any injury. I like interacting with other mature adults.
Indoor pool exercise classes
I generally don't participate in the programs and activities. I just use the gym equipment.
I love the variety of classes! I’ve taken several now and there’s still more to try! Have loved all of them and the instructors. There’s also so much more than just classes that I have yet to try! I also very much love the community and encouragement I’ve received from fellow members. It is a joy to go to the gym!
I would like to have an additional Slow Yoga class added to Wednesday morning. Other than that - I really like our SouthWest YMCA!
The Senior Fit Chair classes and the Senior Fit Strength class I attend are spot on for my ability.
I like the remodel at Southwest location
The instructors a choice of classes

I liked the swim lessons for my daughter
We joined recently for the gym and pool. Happy that equipment is being replaced on the first floor. Many pieces of equipment on the second floor are broken and the mats need to be replaced.
The pool is very nice, but it would be great if management would consider adding an aerator to help keep the water temperature reasonably cool in the heat of summer.
Love the outdoor showers (in the women’s restroom), though one doesn’t work and they could stand to be cleaned occasionally.
Thanks!
I have been going to the Southwest Family YMCA lately to swim laps. I love the outside lap pool. It’s peaceful in the morning and a great temperature. Clean as well. Lifeguards are friendly and conscientious. Also the front desk staff is very kind and helpful. Oh, and I sued the upstairs area for stretching, warmup, etc. It was clean and well equipped, and I appreciate it especially while the downstairs weight room is being renovated.
The adult swim class, I've had some very good instructors like Ilsie and Gabriel. I'm on the wait list for the Adult basics for September that is on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6:40 to 7:20. It's the best time to coordinate with my work schedule. I hope I can get in.
Thanks
I like the location, programs and activities available.
Lots of variety. Don’t feel I have to buy fancy gym clothes to work out. Everything is very clean. Everyone is supportive.
Friendliness
I only use the outside pool
I absolutely love Rebecca's NIA and yoga classes. Also love all the personal trainers.
