Zumba classes!!
I like the classes and the dedicated instructors that teach the classes.
Good environment
Helping me be stronger. Balance, Bar, Tai Chi incredible classes
Excellent staff & facilities. Get to see friends there and meet new ones.
The classes at both the Arnold and Pasadena classes are great! But the sound system in Arnold is sometimes difficult for the instructors to connect to and results in a delay in the class start time.
The staff is excellent, I really appreciate how everyone is so kind and always willing to help.
The Y is clean, the machines work well, and private instructor Jill is the best.
Many quality activities to choose from
convenience
I enjoy coming to the Y.
Friendly, clean, and welcoming!
Great activities and friendly people
Enjoy the various options. I play pickle ball, attend fitness classes and use the machines.
Wide variety of equipment. seeing other people regularly that I would not see otherwise.
Good communication. On-line schedule is up-to-date. Friendly people (staff and patrons). More Chair Yoga sessions have been added.
Array of equipment, clean, and attentive staff. Though fixing the grip on the True DB bench press machine would be nice and a having a like incline BP would be appreciated.
Stay & Play allows me to keep up my fitness routine, while caring for my pre-school grandchildren full time
I am happy with the y. The water aerobics classes have really helped me get healthier.
The Y offers such a large variety of exercises and activities. I really appreciate yhat.
I love the Y. I use both the Arnold and Pasadena centers. I have been a member since it was called the Big Vanilla, 1995.
There IS one major concern. The volume of the music in the workout rooms is DANGEROUSLY loud. I have expressed this issue many times. Some instructors won't turn the music down. It is damaging to one's hearing...seriously. I finally gave up and bought some earplugs. I would recommend the use of decibel meters...an app on the instructor's phone would indicate the orange or red zone for danger, and would scientifically objective.
The staff at the Y in Arnold are always amazingly happy and helpful!!!
I attend yoga classes with Chris Kelly and Body Balance and Barre with Jennifer Gooding. I especially value and appreciate Jennifer’s attention to body alignment and proper physical movement from an internal muscular and skeletal perspective. Her teaching brings more body awareness and lessens injury during daily movement.
The friendliness of the trainers helping me learn the equipment
Excellent value for the money.
Price plus all the ammenities just make this everything a gym/community center should be. Don't change a thing. Fight the temptation to always be improving - you're perfect.
I use the Y at Arnold and am always happy to be there doing my routine. The people are very friendly; the facility is clean and I always feel better following my workout.
Friendly Atmosphere and professional sraff.
Ample equitment, large facility.
I love the variety of classes and the energy and experience of the instructors!! My only complaint, which I have expressed in person and in these surveys many times, is the lack of cleanliness of the studio floors, especially studio #1. The floors during Yoga class on Monday morning are disgustingly dirty!!! Studio 2 is not as bad. The floors need to be vacuumed AND wet mopped PLEASE!! TY
Having a pool is great
