Member Testimonials
The location is conveniently located, it has a large selection of excercise machines, it has a very nice pool and shower and locker room and the instructors are helpful
El personal es muy amable y me explican lento y claro porque yo no hablo muy bien Inglés.
Welcoming setting, inclusive, good array of fitness classes, and it’s conveniently located in my community.
My only issue relates to cleaning the floors which could be better maintained.
Friendly staff, clean bathrooms!
Family atmosphere; friendly staff, community engagement (a deciding factor in our membership)
I love the Y staff! The fitness instructors are fantastic - especially Paula, Kalindi and Natasha!
All the various events/offerings - stay and play, Y camp, childcare on holidays and evenings; the hours; the pool
For the most part everyone is welcoming and friendly and makes you feel at home at the Y. The classes are great and I take a wide variety of classes- body pump, boot camp, cycle, yoga, circuit training, etc... I would like to point out that there are a few ladies at the front who are the opposite of welcoming and friendly. It is consistent that these two ladies are cold, unwelcoming and short with me. I actually had a friend decide to not join the Y because of one of them. Also, the text alerts while helpful could use some improvement- more accuracy and also it is necessary to notify when there will be a sub and when as a result of a sub, the class will actually be a different class all together. Other than those comments I love the Y, it’s clean, welcoming and motivating!
The friendliness of the staff. The helpfulness of the staff. The cleanliness of the center. The availability of the equipment and pool when I am available.
The facility is very clean and welcoming when you arrive. The locker rooms are well maintained and the staff are great! I appreciate the kids Stay and Play so the adults can exercise. The variety of classes are great and the communicate on bad weather days is great! It's a true, family-friendly place that tailors to the well-being of all ages.
It's the best location I've been to in my area
It's a great place to feel comfortable about your body. Everyone is relaxed and not all concerned about the way they look.
I like the community atmosphere. The peaceful, tranquil morning vibe. The families that are there on the weekends. The condition of the equipment. The helpfulness of the employees.

The people
I enjoy the swimming class. The employees are very kind. There is only one thing that bothers me. The women's locker room is freezing cold after the pool. I'd like to walk back into a comfortably warm environment to shower and dry off in; otherwise the experience is great!
It wa so easy and the kids had a great time!
My daughter loves tumbling with Ms. Paula! She is learning new skills and gets to burn off energy in a fun way!
My son loves Sports Mix with Coach Jordan! It's very convenient that he can add-on this experience to his After-school program at the Y!
I love our swim instructor for this class. She has a great disposition and does wonderful with all the kids. I can see major strides in my child's swim skills in this class. I do think the class is at it's best when only 4 kids or less are there. Over 4 children it's rather hard for one instructor to keep all the kids interested and safe.
Friendly staff, great instructor, and clean facility.
My swim coach Megan is amazing!
The instructor was very patient with my son. She took the time and made the extra effort to try and make the lesson a fun experience for him.
Coach Jordan really kept the kids engaged. I liked that he was teaching them skill
My grandson is three and taking swim lessons and we go to family swim at least once a week . Also he experienced his first drop in mini fit session recently . He has stayed in stay and play many times . So what I love most about the ymca is all the different opportunities for him to be healthy. And I forgot to mention the awesome family room with all of the different games and the tables available to have our snacks at. The staff is very friendly and warm which is another reason I love the YMCA !
My 7-year-old daughter is enjoying the swimming class of Lv 3 - Water Stamina a lot!
My son loves the sports mix and coach Jordan!!!
Parents night out offers great activities for my 7year old. She looks forward to attending and meeting her friends. My 26 year old attended the Y youth activities and has kept in touch with her Y friends over the years. My seven year old will have the same experience. The staff are dedicated to creating the best experiences for her.
Everything and everyone is very helpful
I love the Y because the pool is where I get pain free exercise required by my doctor to help my osteoarthritis. Joan is a caring and inspirational teacher. The unexpected bonus at this Y is the kind and friendly Christian women I have met in the pool. My quality of my life is better because of my experiences at The Catonsville YMCA. I thank the helpful staff who always greet me with a smile, decorate the center so brightly, and who treat seniors with free drinks and food regularly.
I look forward to many years at the Y.
