Member Testimonials
senior exercise class is great!
I have been a member since 1982 and the programs, services, and facilities are designed for EVERYONE in the community to enjoy. Superb! Inclusive! Available and accessible to All Austin residents!
I love the body pump classes!
I love that all are welcome. The ymca is so diverse from age to body types to race/ culture to different needs. There truly is something for everyone!
Yoga
Excellent instructors who understand the needs and activities appropriate for seniors. My favorite class is the senior range of motion class in the therapy pool, followed by a soak in the spa. A strong social group has developed through shared activity and long-time participation. The Town Lake unit has more diversity of classes for seniors than other Y's.
Kids Club is awesome !
Love the numerous classes offered at convenient times.
Energetic instructors!
I recommend the Townlake Y every day because of the pool , how clean it is and how clean the dressing room and showers are!
Group classes, including yoga. Personal training.
My wife and I, both, love the Y. We are just using the various machines, not group activities.
What we like most is the human element: the people at the reception desk at once so welcoming and so businesslike; the very diverse public using the Y; the loving overall mood of the place; the care with which it is maintained.
At a more practical level, we love the location of the Y, and the facilities.
I like how there is a variety of programs and activities for people of all ages. There are classes at different times of the day and different days of the week, so it's easy for me to find something that fits my schedule.
Indoor pool with enough room for the kids
It's a nice mix of interesting people that one finds at the Y.
I like how welcoming the staff is. I like how diverse the clientele is. I am happy with the exercise programs.
- my only complaint (now that the funk downstairs this year is gone! How did you get rid of that smell that always shows up in summer?) is that some equipment needs to be replaced more quickly than others - great example is the bicep machine downstairs that seems to really wear out fast.
- Overall I think you guys do a great job - pleasant/nice employees always ...
I like like the clean space and friendly, helpful staff. As of yet, I haven't participated in any programs or activities. Just a workout.
Variety of exercise classes. Offerings for active seniors.
Like the daily senior workout class @ 9. Wish it was offered on the weekends as well
The staff is super friendly and approachable. Plenty to chose from.
Lots of variety and good instructors.
I like the instructors of group classes that really don't hold back on the classes purpose, and deliver intense workouts that really challenge me. I can work out hard on my own, but it's so much easier to have that guided routine, so all I have to do (but not really) is "get to the gym".
I love the fact the YMCA is welcoming to people from all walks of life.
Love the place. Could use a larger women’s shower area.
Great, convenient facility at an attractive price!
Like your pool and I like your yoga and personal trainer Erika.
I like that y’all have the lockers with different inspirational words on it. I love the vending machines. And I feel there is a good variety of workout equipment.
Plenty of machines. Friendly staff. Good class choicsz
A wide variety of exercise machines and classes available for a wide range of hours in the day.
