Member Testimonials
Love the group fitness classes! The instructors push hard, but are so encouraging!
Elizabeth Doss’s Mat Pilates and Yoga-lates classes are fantastic!
Child made so much progress in swim lessons
Les Mills Bodypump is the best!
The diversity of the members, variety of activities, how the Y serves the community.
The staff, at the front desk and the trainers/instructors seem very open and helpful. The machines, pool and infrastructure inside and outside seem to be clean, up to date and well kept. The only fault I've noticed over the years is that I don't see trainers (or anyone) explaining to their clients how to use the ergometers correctly.
Love Zumba, body combat, Barre
Love women’s hour on Sunday!
Great community!
Please add more groups for the preschool kids, the times and groups are limited for leves 2 to 4
I primarily go to this Y to play pickleball. Really enjoy the level of play there. I've noticed the gym floor is more slippery than other gym floors I've been to. A few players have mentioned the same issue. Some players have actually fallen while playing pickleball.
A good number of players are middle-aged to senior citiizens, so I am concerned about possible injury with these falls.
Thanks for reviewing my feedback. Appreciate the staff at the Y and their good work!
A variety of programs and good instructors. Friendly environment.
Easy and very diverse.
Gym equipment
Cardio
I love, love Q’s Tuesday/Thursday morning water aerobics classes. He puts a lot of time in giving his class a safe sequence of water exercises using different props. I feel like I am getting physical therapy for my joints and bones. He helps with body flexibility and cardio for the heart. He’s also very entertaining The YMCA and club members are lucky to have someone like Q (Humberto) adding to our quality of life.

I like that there are so many different classes to chose from and that they are catered for all ages and abilities.
I like the variety of programs but, I would like more afternoon schedules
The downstairs weight area and the upstairs machines and aerobic workout area are excellent.
Great staff! Good classes. Great child watch.
Feeling of community. Resources go to what really helps people and all of the programs, and not to vanity fluff.
We enjoy playing pickleball at Townlake. The players are friendly and the competition is good.
My only complaint would be that the floors are slippery. Many players have slipped and fallen, even experienced players. This can lead to a potential bad injury. Can you do something about the floor to make it less slippery?
Breadth. Nice facility. Lots to do.
Gym is always well maintained, staff is friendly and location next to the water provides great access to getting on the trail
I like that there are a wide variety of activiteis available to me
continuous improvement
Love the lap pool swimming, and our group fitness class accessibility
Clean. Well maintained. Good BodyPump instructors.
I love all the facilities and equipment that's available. I mostly use the pool. I'm sorry about the broken fixtures in the men's locker room. I hope you receive more funds to make improvements.
Excellent weight room at the town lake Y. I’ve been a member since around 2016, and I’ve never been to a better weight room in Austin and I don’t plan on searching. As a firefighter, it’s important that I’m able to train at a good facility when I’m off shift, so I appreciate the Y very much for providing that.
Couple pieces of equipment I’d love to see here in the future:
1. Dip machine
2. Curl machine
3. V-handle attachment for cable machine
4. Lat pullover machine
I know a couple of these used to be at this location, so I recognize space must be a factor, but I just wanted to offer some suggestions from a longtime member!
Thanks for all you do

everything is so fancy and clean
Child Watch and Elena are fantastic. PNO is a lifesaver!

Like the layout of the gym and the fitness program.
