It has pickle ball
I like the variety of classes especially the unique Barre class taught by Jenn Gooding. I also attended the Body Balance class offered as an introction on April 9. I do hope this class will be offered on an on-going basis. Jenn is excellent at tailoring classes to meet the needs of those who are attending. She teaches people, not just a program. Her knowledge and experince in many areas of total health are evident in each class.
convenient location. Good classes
I like the energy, the variety of classes, and how the Y helps me get fit!
Reasonable price, good hours
Great friendly staff, great equipment, always enjoyable
Great Staff!
Amazing staff and cleanliness
Socializing, which gives me motivation to come back.
One change I would like to see: water aerobics/zumba instructors sometimes teaching a whole session from the deck so we can see the moves. It's tiring trying to hear shouting over the water.
All staff are friendly class instructors are excellent!
Not too gym-bro-ish, but still serious enough to get results. Even though im overweight and almost 50, im comfortable working out at the Y. I hired a personal trainer and have seen incredible results in strength and muscle gain. its a good family or individual setting to maintain or increase fitness.
Appreciate the availability of on demand video fitness classes.
I love the group exercise classes. All of the staff are very friendly, great atmosphere!
Haven't had the time lately but membership increases are making me doubt the continuation of my membership. Used to be much better for the whole family. Good option in general.

I am a huge fan of the YMCA, and especially now the Greater Maryland YMCA/Arnold. The gym was always in good shape, and has a competitive price point especially for young adults. If I hadn't moved I would have stayed forever!
Some great instructors who motivate and educate! The opportunity to make great friends!
I love the classes available - especially Sarah Middel's cardio classes. She is amazing!
We love the Y in Arnold.
Would like to have machines and equipment maintained better, especially the basketball hoop nets.
Thank you

Everything about the Y is wonderful!
