Member Testimonials
Variety
Friendly staff
I just started going and have a disability. I was able to utilize the pool program and sauna. My husband utilizes the weights and equipment such as treadmill and bikes.
Open at 5 a.m. Family friendly atmosphere. Pool is great.
I joined the Y in 2016 and just started using the exercise equipment because I didn’t know anyone and was intimidated to walk into a class, until I saw a notice about a class that was starting for people “50 and Fit” taught by Carrie Pasquale. She is amazing and as of today 2022, I now take her HIT, Kick Boxing and Stretch classes. What I love about her classes is she gives you options of each exercise according to your ability. I can’t move like I could in my 20’s. The exercise is great, but for me it’s also a social gathering. What I love about these classes it’s comprised of all ages from young moms to those of us 70 and older. These friendships are so special. The staff at the front desk are so friendly and make you feel you are important. Every time I enter, they always say “Good morning” and call me by name. Just a warm, friendly atmosphere!!

The variety of program offerings is great. The instructors are equally great and always encouraging. The Forsyth Y is a pleasant atmosphere and I always feel more relaxed when I leave than when I came!

Great programs & instructors
I have enjoyed my experience at the Y. It has helped me get back into the habit of working out.
Our YMCA is a huge part of our family life. We love the friendly staff at the Forsyth YMCA. Our YMCA is always very clean and is beautifully decorated for Christmas. We have been members for over 12 years. I enjoy all of the organized classes including cycling, yoga and Zumba while my husband loves the weight selection. Our daughters have gone to the childcare since they were born. They loved going to Parents Night Out. They believed the only real Santa was the one at our Y and visited him every year for their Christmas pictures. Not only did our daughters learn to swim by taking swim lessons at the Y but also did the YMCA kids triathlon and many races when they were older. The Mommy and Me swim lessons were some of my favorite memories. Our oldest daughter began cheerleading at the Y while our youngest played basketball for the Y for years. We have had their Birthday parties at the Y. We love that our Y helps families in need around us. As a family we have participated in ways to give back which is a wonderful and important lesson to teach our children. As you can see our YMCA is not just a gym it’s a family oriented home away from home full of beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.
