Member Testimonials
I am a senior citizen and I love the classes specifically designed for seniors. I am fairly new to Austin and it’s a good way to meet people.
That there is always something to do for me and/or my family
I like the pool
I like Pilates.All instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. Child Watch at Southwest is great!
Yoga!
I like the outdoor pool. I usually swim at the TownLake Y, but like to get outside sometimes.
Family friendly!
Friendly staff!
Positive Culture
I loved tha facilities, some of the staff was not as helpful as the staff at Townlake. Told them it was our first time when we walked in and one of the three people up front politely said hi. If someone had told me it was their first time somewhere, maybe offer to show them around or check to see if they had any questions. Just a thought. Besides that, the facilities were nice and lifeguards were helpful. Love the option to attend any YMCA location! Very happy here.
Nice classes. A broader variety of yoga would be appreciated
I like the classes
We love that there is a indoor swimming pool. That is it open late and on the weekends. Rain or shine we have somewhere to go as a family.
Everything
The Y is very family friendly! I love the yoga classes with Rebecca!
We love the facilities, inclusiceness of the programs and overall positive vibe that the YMCA works to maintain.

Lap Swimming
Really enjoyed the outside pool. Great for little kids
Miss Joy in child watch is amazing!! My kids always learn something fun and valuable. Everyone else who works in child watch is awesome. I love the classes and the trainers... especially Rocky and the early morning cycle trainers. Honestly I love everything about it. (Oh I do wish child watch was 2 hours. Haha!)
Pool
The outdoor pool is gorgeous and the lifeguards very nice and helpful
Outdoor pool, yoga classes, and exercise machines (some new ones!) all good. Special programs/speakers welcomed.
It's a nice place

Due to my schedule it's hard to enjoy all your programs but I like the facility. It's got a lot of workout machines & 2 pools & showers which is awesome! I also like that it's very clean.
