Member Testimonials
Great variety..great teachers ....BUT
Very disappointed that the Y does not buy the needed equipment for the senior fit classes... Bands, weights etc ..We have needed more sturdy chairs for years and they have been promising to get them for us for many years.
Finally Annette talked to the Y and got permission to take up a donation . Members are buying the chairs and donating them to the Y. I donated money, because the chairs are needed, but this is not right .The Y could well afford to buy chairs for these classes around $700....Some of the chairs are not safe for seniors to be sitting in and getting up from. Members of the classes feel we are not valued members which is really unfortunate when the Y has so many seniors.
I really like the water exercise classes.
The people, the instructors the availability. Just wish there was more parking
Like the classes and friendly instructors
I would love to see more aerobic type classes throughout the day and not just mornings.
Cycling classes, group fitness classes
BODYPUMP and Les Mills Core
Love the Y!
Seniors programs are perfect for old folks
I attend the 8 am fitness classes and love them!
We love the indoor pool in the winter and the outdoor pool in the Summer
I love to see all the generations in a healthy, clean, friendly environment. I recently tried Aquafit and its do much fun!
Clean, colorful, and fresh building, great greeting staff, doable cardio classes. Annette and Penny are such fun and inspiring, but I never feel pressured in their classes. I have sampled Yoga and Aqua Fit and enjoyed them as well. My health has improved and Chloresterol level is down. My arthritis pain is diminished, and I simply feel better……..
By the way…..I’ll be 81 in September.
I am only acquainted with the swim lessons, so can't evaluate everything. My 7 year old grandson wanted to learn to swim this summer, so I brought him to the Y, where I could be certain his instruction would be professional and thorough. What I didn't know is how much fun he would have, and how proud he is of his accomplishments so far.
I love the pool. You have great treads with screens so you can run to cool scenery.
I like the variety of offerings

Getting young people and children into programs
The aerobic classes keep my cardio vascular system healthy. The weight room addresses much needed muscle retention. The people support my need for social interaction. I'm a widow with no children and no family within a thousand miles. I NEED THE YMCA!
The Dripping Springs YMCA provides a variety of programs for all ages and interest. Though I have not participated yet, I particularly like the Yoga and Tennis options. I hope to sign up to one in the future
I like the group fitness exercises. Some of the instructors are really excellent.
I really appreciate the water aerobics classes available at the Y. Participation has helped me to build strength and increase flexibility.
