Member Testimonials
I love body pump so I'm disappointed that some classes later in the mornings were canceled. I hope someone will step in to those slots so classes can resume.
The Y is a very welcoming place. I have been a member for about 12 years.
The Y has bounced back well from the COVID closures, but admittedly that was tough.
Would you please consider returning those group exercise classes to the 1 hour length. There are many classes that take place in a space that is EMPTY after the class. This should be easy.
Consider the time and effort it takes to get to a class with traffic and the cost of fuel. Frustrating to have a YOGA class end so soon.
You wanted to hear from me!!

Cycle
Clean building, new equipment (much nicer than NE Y) and super friendly staff.
Everyone is very nice and the facility (pool as well) is clean and well maintained.
Clean pool & whirlpool, easy location, Joseph’s group cycling
Excellent range of classes and great instructors. The weight room has plenty of machines and free weights and there are seldom more than 20% of the machines in use.
They’re fun, inclusive, and challenging. I appreciate the very early workouts to get my day started, but wish there were more in the 6a-7a time frame.
I really only take Indoor Cycling once a week now, but the class is amazing. Joseph is a GREAT instructor and the people at the Y are wonderful. Although I'm not there as often as I used to be, I always look forward to going. It's a special place that has community and great activities for all ages.
