Member Testimonials
I like the facilities, the convenience, the staff and the other Y patrons. As someone who lives alone, I look forward to interacting with staff members and the other people who are working out while I am there.
I have had wonderful exchanges with people there, and many times I did not know them at all. I think that speaks well of the atmosphere there, and why I am grateful to be a member there.
I would -- and have -- heartily recommended the Y to others.
I’ve been going to the YMCA for almost a month now and I’ve had the chance to participate in some of the classes they offer and it’s been an amazing time. Because of my work my schedules are different every week, but the Y has a wide range of options (activities and times) and that allows me to enjoy the different classes they have.
I only have me and just use the workout room but it's very well equipped
I love the classes! There is a lot of variety to choose from and they are challenging to complete.
I have found the swim lane booking system to be very effective.
Swimming laps in the pool
Restricted size of Group classes
Great atmosphere for workout! Love the aquatic staff, the aerobic equipment and the circuit training equipment! Clean and neat compared to other Y’s I’ve seen.
Friendly staff too
I'm currently only attending the Little Lattes program and it is very nice. It starts on time and the instructor is very polite and skilled in her craft. The past two sessions were the first couple of sessions and have been one on one. Hopefully others will join. I love it though! Definitely going back. Here at Cowart is one of the very few facilities that offer parent-baby activities. I would love to see more please!
I’ve Appreciated the group exercise classes and instructors so much…especially the “at home” options. Been a ymca member for 28 years.
Great instructors!

Great instructors
Love the friendly staff, squeaky clean facilities, variety of classes for all ages, and especially the water aerobic classes!!
Outstanding staff that keep the programs and facilities the best.
The variety in group classes is unmatched compared to other YMCA’s! I can take Fierce Funk, African Dance, and more classes that are unique to this location and they are all super fun with great instructors!
The employees are friendly.
I like the friendliness of the staff when you enter the building and the warm welcome.
I’ve enjoyed the water classes of Laura, Mercedes, and Shawnee. I’ve been to more of Laura’s and really appreciate your teaching style, friendliness, and overall efforts to know our names.
The enormous variety, especially classes moving to music.
Good variety of equipment and programs, including a large pool and indoor track.
Good workout area family friendly
Everything! You are very member oriented and I love that. The staff is friendly, the trainers are always ready to help when you need them.
Sometimes, however, the trainers on the floor are reluctant to enforcing rules (outrageously loud music last week when two guys were practicing dance moves in the studio with the door open annoying the rest of us who prefer to workout in peace - Phung didn”t want to do anything about it, so I went and closed the studio door myself. As I went back to my Peloton bike, a member thanked me; people talking on the phone; people leaving their personal items for 45 minutes or longer on the Espresso bike using it as a clothes horse or to reserve it while they are working out on weight machines; people putting their sports bags in aisles or doing their stretches in the aisles = hazard). I’m constantly having to go to trainers to try to get them to enforce the rules. Rules are great and are what enables all of us to get along.
Other than that, everything about the Cowart Y is great! I love you guys!
Lots of program choices!
Family friendly, safe, and very professional.
I love the swimming pool and water aerobic classes!
My husband and I go to the Y regularly because we love the variety of equipment and classes, but especially because we love the staff. They are friendly and helpful and always welcome us with a smile.

Firstly, staff are very friendly and helpful
Secondly, the aqua aerobics and other pool programs are great
