I am only doing gentle yoga twice a week plus walking the track as well on those days. Rebecca B could use a bigger room on Wednesdays at 1110 as the class fills up and she has to turn away people due to the room filling up. She does a magnificent job but the room is too small.

I love the variety of programs, although I have only participated in the aqua fit with Shauna. I adore her in the class!

The women’s locker room could use better daily upkeep and maintenance, however. Last time I was there, I could not take a shower in the women’s locker room because two maintenance men were working on them. That was poor planning on the wise part because it coincided with the aqua fit class which is precisely when more people will need to shower then when there is not a pool activity. Probably the best time for such major maintenance and repairs would be after the Y has closed at night….

I’m excited to see what the new paint job will bring to the facility. So far, it looks good.

I also appreciate the fact that this particular why does not have Bibles or biblical verses or other religious symbols or verbiage around. The last Y that I went to in another state had that stuff and I was very uncomfortable around it. It’s not that I am not a believer or religious and spiritual person. I just don’t want that stuff around a place where I’m working out and attending to my own health and welfare, because it felt like force, feeding rather than supportive.

I hope all this information helps.

I only use the outdoor pool and I love it. I love that it is outdoors and that it is heated year-round. The lifeguards are attentive.

I like that this Y has an indoor track, great for days when the weather is bad or brutal hot. There is also a sauna that I have not used yet, but will at some point.
The area upstairs that has a few pieces of equipment and the resistant weights is nice as well.

I love the diversity of programs and all the instructors are so kind. The YMCA feels like home ever time I enter!

I also love having access to a sauna especially during the winter months.

I have tried out a few classes at the YMCA (cycling being my favorite please add more cycling classes!!) There are still so many classes I want to try!

I also do majority weight lifting at the YMCA and y’all have one of the best weight rooms I’ve been to. So much access to different machines and a variety of weights!
