Member Testimonials
Broad range of programs for all ages.
The staff; the playcenter opening hours ; how clean they keep facility
Cycling classes are solid! Workout area is nice.
Especially like the Barre classes when Julia B teaches them! She's an excellent teacher!! Hope she stays around! I also like the pool.
Since the new fitness machines were installed, there is often a wait at a couple of them that now only have one machine. (Abduction/Adduction machine. Used to have two, now one.)
Also, the abdominal machine. Used to have two of those as well. Some of these seem to be built or adjusted for taller, larger people, (likely men).
Thank you for keeping all machines and workout areas clean and working!
Great gym for triathlon training.
The water aerobics programs
I love the classes and the times that they are offered. The facilities are clean and the staff is BEYOND helpful and friendly.
Friendly staff, good workout equipment
Hatha and vinyasa yoga, tai chi…
Everyone is friendly and welcoming.
I primarily come for the equipment use. I have participated in any activities in a long time. I'm more of a self-starter in my Y workouts.
I've been a member less than a year, but I see that DDY serves a large and varied population and particularly serves families in our area.
I really enjoy Turbokick with Megan and Fierce Funk with Jai. They are both excellent instructors and the classes are high energy and fun!
I like the long accessible hours. The fitness center is what I mainly use. It's always clean, well maintained, and well-equipped.
Quality teachers and the variety of classes offered.
Great location. Great People Love the new equipment.
Love the training I get with my personal trainer
A friendly atmosphere highlighted by several team members engaging manner. New exercise machinery is good, though some folks got used to the previous stuff, everyone seems to have adapted. We miss Terrance’s active presence on the floor as his successor seems to be much less visible.
My only personal complaint is that Netflix has not worked on the treadmills in months.
There are many more classes, particularly yoga, than when I attended years ago.
Inclusiveness, friendliness of instructors.
I like the cardio and strength training equipment you have at the Y.
wide variety of classes to choose from, friendly people and community
I’m taking adult swimming lessons & find them very pleasant. The instructors are quite good.
The variety for older adults too
The classes are wonderful, and the instructors are very nice. I enjoy attending any class whenever I have the chance. My favorite is the Zumba class, and I wish we had it twice a week. Thank you for offering it.
The gym is also a great space, and the staff is always helpful and friendly. I love going there, and my kids enjoy going by themselves as well.
Lots of variety, something for every ability and interest
everything!
