Member Testimonials
Zumba with Nicole Yates and Step with Elgin!
It hasn't been long yet, but everyone has been friendly and helpful. We love the outdoor pool and the slide!
The programs are grea. HOWEVER, what makes East Lake the best is the sense of community. I have gone to other 'Ys' and not experienced the sence of connection with other members. I believe ot has to do ,in part, with instructors such as Barbie and Karin!! Thank you.
P.S. The time schedules of the classes I attend, such as spinning and circuit, work well with my work.
Every thing
gym and classes.
I think the East Lake pool is particularly wonderful! The life guards and staff are amazing! I did, however, notice that the way the chairs are locked together this year is creating a tripping hazard by the front of the deck. I saw two children and one adult nearly face plant because of nearly tripping over the chain that is locking the chairs. Perhaps the chairs need to stay locked together for a reason I don’t understand, but the chain situation seems like it might be causing an unforeseen hazard.
Many thanks! And again, the facilities and staff are truly wonderful!
The schedule provides a variety of activities for my family.
Options are key to maintain optimal health. That’s what the YMCA offers!
