I like the classes although they are somewhat limited right now and my favorite class (GoLo) is only on Tuesdays.
Great facility with top-notch class instructors. Doing a great job during this pandemic.
Professionalism, informed teachers !
I love the Y. The Wellness Center is well equipped. Everything is clean and sanitized. They have water and land classes. There is activities for children. Daycare is available. I am looking forward to the coffee area opening back, if that is possible
Hydro Pilates. Aqua Barr.
Friendly staff, pools and water Aerobics
A friendly atmosphere, especially from the front-desk staff, COVID-19 precautions, and the lap pool are all advantages.
I’m there for the pool.
I think they motivate you with the great trainers you have.
I love the Arthritis class
The kind and helpful staff. It's just a cheerful place! I love the Christian music playing in the halls too. Group exercise is always instructed with encouraging teachers. I just love the Salem Y!
Clean, pleasant staff.
I like the variety of classes, class times and instructors. The staff are friendly too. Also, the place seems very clean.
Wonderful staff
Love the classes but think the boot camps should be part of our membership and not extra. Especially now that other classes are limited.
Love the pool and the wellness center at the Salem Y
I like the workout classes
The staff and instructors are nice and helpful!
THE people that work there are very friendly. The instructors are educated in what they teach, They make it fun and wants everyone to work at their own pace, the facility is clean. Overall its been a good month or so for me.
I swim; usually is available but the printed schedule doesn't always match who/what is actually using the pools
Variety of classes
The arthritis classes in the family pool are such fun! I could feel myself getting weaker and losing balance when we were not able to attend, due to covid 19. In addition I missed my friends. So glad when I could return. I just wish a Monday class could be worked out. Please let me know when that happens!!

I like the family atmosphere and surrounding views of the mountains.
