Pickle ball
Excellent equipment and friendly staff. Wanda is great!
I love the cardio tennis! I have been spreading the word with my tennis friends at USTA. It's like playing a game and getting a workout at the same time which inspires me to go to the Y more often than ever!
The only negative is the pickle ball lines on the tennis court. It's like trying to play "Where's Waldo?" at the same time you play tennis. It shows a lack of commitment to the game of tennis and will keep the serious players away.
Indoor tennis courts— although not this summer unfortunately!
Great classes and facilities. Clean. Opportunities for community involvement
Great classes !!!
Many classes at all times of the day and suited to all ages and abilities.
Convenient (nearby), affordable
I love my Zumba Gold with Laurie of low and mid intensity class, but it's only offered 1 x a week. My class would appreciate another class by the same teacher.
We enjoy taking the classes and meeting new friends.
Nancy was an amazing swimming teacher!! I was a great experience!
Ease of use of they.

Tai Chi, the pool, and the fact that the whole place is finally getting cleaned and shaped up.

Swim lessons with Nancy E. are awesome. She is very patient with the kids and I would recommend her to anyone.
The variety of classes . Quality of fitness instructors. Friendly personnel. Renovation of building to a modern high quality community fitness center
I am a relative newcomer to the Y of Annapolis but I do have a little history with some smaller locations outside of the region. Where this The Y®️ lacks in personable staff it makes up for in programs and the abundance of cyber and other brand machines. I am a big fan of the diverse staff from many different backgrounds. There is a bit of an undercurrent of testosterone stress and I have picked up the worst crotch and butt crack rot of my life but I would not change fitness centers for the world. I have tried twenty four hour fitness (roidville) as well as Planet Fitness (pizza butt) but prefer the family atmosphere of The Y®️ of Greater Annapolis/Arnold. No offense to those who enjoy the harsh aggressive feeling of the above fitness centers but as a natural, bovine and performance enhancing drug free, want to be fit, black man with tattoos on his leg and arm I think that I have found a match for my budding family. My fear is that as a forty something year old afflicted with Shingles I will be taken advantage of by the young bucks and old men who have more “appliances” at their disposal. I type this half serious and half not serious. I grew up in the era of the Leaders club and want my almost two year old daughter to do the same.
I love the classes and the friendly people.
I have been a member at this facility since the day it first opened many years ago and it has gotten better since the Y became the owner/operator.
I use the Y on a very regular basis and I really love it. The improvements have all been great. I'm looking forward to my classes not moving around so much, and to having the proper weights and other equipment available where I work out. However, I can see that the staff is doing everything they can to make things run as smoothly as possible given the construction.
Great classes and instructors. The gym is always clean and orderly.
Every time I go i am always happy, it makes feel relaxed and I like how we can choose the classes for the times that we are available.
The variety of good yoga classes that are held at a variety of times is the biggest reason I am a member but I also do use the equipment sometimes. I like that my money supports an organization that supports the community.
Staff very helpful and friendly!
Variety of workouts.
Age span. Love old and young people together.
Friendly staff, usually helpful.
Nice clean new facilities.
Started using the pool this summer. Everyone is polite and lifeguards handle situations tactfully. No obnoxious parents or kids. Usually can find a chair. Lots of shade in the afternoon.
Haven’t been there when camp is in session, but looks well run and doesn’t affect my workouts.
Hoping my favorite machine comes back after renovation (#1), or if new style, hope I can figure it out and find it.
Love you
