Member Testimonials
Thankful that with my membership I am able to use the pool for exercise! As I have papers for arthritis and water exercise is best for my body!
The staff is extremely nice and helpful... the facility is always clean... the equipment I like is always available when I come in... I just love my experiences at the Y and so do my kids...
Everything the staff, programs and the cleanliness.
It can be busy but never too crowded. I went yesterday for the first time in 3 months and I like that y'all added another squat rack. I don't like to use the assisted squat rack so having 2 non-assisted ones is great.
I also usually know at least 1 person when I go, even if it's later in the evening. That gives it the community feel and indicates that people are continuing their membership for more than just a season/short time.
It is a reasonably affordable way to keep fit and enjoy exercise.
There is something for everyone. The kids love the programs (especially karate), as do the adults.
Friendliness and supportiveness of staff, cleanliness of space
Instructor was very personable
Excellent service
Tumbling with Ms. Paula was great! My daughter really looked forward to her class and thought Ms. Paula was a lot of fun. We can't wait to sign up again!
The Y has friendly and helpful staff. The equipment is maintained and clean.
The classes
Clean, accessible, and helpful staff.
Significant effort at my Catonsville Y to find a way to offer membership to financially challenged community families.
Everything
The Y is very clean and bright. It has been very good for my mood and workout experience. I feel no judgement during my workouts.
My son's teacher was very motivating, and motivated to teach. You can really tell that she enjoys what she is doing and it is translated into the sessions. It was also good to focus on tiny details to enhance their techniques which I think is what is essential at this point in their learning
The teacher (Ms. Paula) was very good with the kids- she's firm but kind and my kid loves her. It is a good balance of free play (when it's not yet their turn) and individualized attention ( when it's their turn) and the kids do not get bored at all. Very good price as well for what we get during the sessions. I have been recommending to everyone we know.
My six year old daughter loves coming to parents night out. She gets to meet new people and enjoy the activities. It has been a pleasant overall experience for our family. Thanks for offering parents night out.
I like the y it's very good place for my family.
Rachel is excellent. I have already recommended her to others.
For the most part machines are always available for my workouts without having to wait more than a few minutes or no wait. The facilities are very clean, and the staff is friendly and courteous. I like the wide variety of classes offered. I would like to see more senior classes offered in the early mornings, particularly gentle yoga. Yes, we are retired and available at other times, but having to break up my day for an afternoon workout doesn't work well for me - I like to work out early to set the tone for my day.
Working out, meeting. People, clean environment ,
The exercises (working out) and the water aerobics classes.
The friendliness of most of the staff
That I can walk in and get to work out without people shaming me. A lot of times I am afraid to go but when I get the courage I can get in there and get on a machine.
CLEAN SAFE AND FRIENDLY ENVIROMENT. THEY HAVE A VARIETY TO OFFER.
Good location, facility, and schedule.
It was just a windy day but it was great information.

The Ward Y is home... comfortable!
