Member Testimonials
I love the Y at Moores Mill! There is adequate equipment to do everything in my workout routine, you're conveniently located, parking is easy and the staff is so incredibly kind. I particularly love having the Peloton bikes and all of the beautiful new weight floor equipment. If anything were to improve, I'd expand the space dedicated to stretching. I have yet to participate in a class, so can't comment there. The gym and locker rooms are clean, which I also appreciate. I'm looking forward to playing tennis and taking advantage of other amenities when it warms up.
Convenience
I like that there is a play center for my child while I exercise. I also like the new option of parent day out.
Easy access, clean and friendly folks who work there!
I regularly attend the 530am spin classes that are provided at the Y and I love them. My main suggestion is to recommend that the Y look at how the sign-up system works. Currently, one can only sign up 24 hrs in advance of a class. In the case of several 530am classes, the reservations fill up within a few hours...sometimes even less.
The issue is that, in order to secure a bike for the next day's class, you need to interrupt the current class you are taking to sign up for the next day. It is an interruption of the beginning of the class that can simply be avoided by opening up the reservations to 24 hrs + 30 mins. This way, we can sign up beginning 30 mins before the class starts and avoid the interruption of spin class by fiddling with your phone while riding...
I hope you will consider this solution as it allows you to be totally mentally focused on the class at hand instead of trying to sign up for the next class at the same time.
Another option would be to eliminate the reservation system entirely. As it is, you need to wake up early two days in a row in order to reserve a bike for one day. For example, you need to wake up at 530am on Sunday mornings (and then go back to bed) to book the Monday morning class...and early for the actual class the next day...Without the reservation system, we can just show up (albeit a bit earlier) and secure a bike...I'm sure there's reasons that this won't work, but it just seems simpler...
Great programs and activities
Flexibility of schedules :)
The variety of classes and equipment makes it so worth the price! For the first time in my life I have felt motivated and like I had a fitness & wellness community, not just a gym.
FACILITY is super clean. Staff are super friendly. Family friendly. Weight lifting machines are brand new and all equipment is well-maintained.
I love that the YMCA is a multi-generational facility with so many activities to offer. The Cowart location is always clean, bright, and never TOO crowded.
The trainers!
The different offerings in terms of classes offered is great. The workout equipment is great quality too.
I can't speak to the programs or the activities, I just love the fact that I can walk across the street from my home with my kids and work out in a very nice setting with like minding people, work my kids out, while at the same time getting my workout in and be home in less than an hour.
Daycare is great, pool is great, workout areas are always clean
Variety, quality and availability
The new equipment and current staff are excellent. The fiscality is clean, bright and there's a wonderful sense of comradery throughout the wellness areas.
PLEASE - us petite ladies have been asking for another pair of 12.5 weights. That would get my rating up to a 10!

I primarily use the equipment.
Everyone becomes your family and friend, where you can form a great relationship to reach your goals
Water aerobics with Ms. Sherril. But haven’t seen her lately
You've always retained good instructors. All the employees are friendly including those at the front desk who are welcoming. You work hard at keeping things clean and you also work hard at offering many programs for different ages and stages in life. And there is brand new equipment in the work out area with knowledgeable instructors to show you how to use it personally.
Thank you!
