Member Testimonials
Group exercise and positive atmosphere!
My husband & I joined the YMCA almost a year ago. Since that time, we've been attending the Body Pump classes several times a week. The instructors are great! They are all different from each other, and they are all enthusiastic and very encouraging. I thought it would be difficult to feel engaged in large classes (attendance typically varies from about 10 to up to 40 or 50 people), but I have been pleasantly surprised at how attuned each instructor seems to be to each participant's performance.
I've never been in better physical condition than I am right now (at age 60!), and I am grateful to the Y for helping me reach this state of good health.
Great location and friendly staff.
Friendly staff. Has a warm environment. Everyone seems like family
Personal training and finding a group to share personal training with
coach jones (soccer age 3-5) is the best!
Welcoming atmosphere and personal attention of all staff.:)
Great fun for the kids!
Coach is great! Also, organization and communication is excellent from program.
friendly and helpful staff.
I like the indoor pool at Town Lake Y, and the option for an outdoor swim at other locations. I like the variety of yoga classes offered and have enjoyed the spin classes.
Excellent equipment, steam room, Jacuzzi
I like the fact that I see many people with disabilities at my local YMCA. It gives me a good feeling that, even when I can't get to the Y myself, my support of my local Y goes to an organization that so many can enjoy.
The inclusivity, the top notch instructors and the flexible times
The best coaches and the best organizer in Allison!
The pool and hot tub are always a great way to entice myself to visit the Y for a workout too!
Positive attitude of coaching and players
Remarkably complete facility. Truly conscientious and professional staff.
Spin class, strength floor, Daniel the Greeter
Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of facilities. Love Sunday morning women’s swim. Overall choice of activities.
Affordable and great programs, beautiful clean facilities with friendly staff
I love the variety and number of group exercise classes
For the most part my husband and I are very happy with the Y.
I would like to see more pilates classes and an additional stamina class offered mid morning. Right now there is Monday and Wednesday and a big gap to the next Monday.
The noon pilates class would be wonderful for 3 days instead of the current 2.
My husband uses the hot tub and it seems there are periods where days go by when there is a problem it's not open. He also shoots basketballs on the court when available and swims laps.
Love the weight machines and rowing machines! Helps with done density and flexibility. Always friendly staff!
Swimming
Important to me is that lap swim lanes are always available even if certain lanes are closed for classes and open swim use.
Diversity.
great staff and awesome swim coaches. Especially, Sara!
Very friendly team who always greet us and welcome us in. The pool facility is great, we love swimming laps there.
I like how the folks greet us at 5:30 each morning to open the doors to work out! I love having Daniel greet us too.
I wish we had more machines like AMT 8 , 9 and 10 in the Town Lake Cardio Room. Some times they are the first machines picked and there aren't enough for those who like them. I think they break down more because each of them is getting more use than other machines in the Cardio Room.
I like how clean the facilities are kept and how diverse the people I see there are.
I regularly do Body Pump and I love the teachers at the SW YMCA even though I'm less than a mile from Town Lake. Some of our Town Lake teachers are great and others don't know how to keep a beat or make us value the challenge!
