Member Testimonials
I love the classes, the smoothie shop, and the availability of machines and equipment. Thanks YMCA!
Good classes, good instructors and wonderful friends I made!
I like that the Y has a variety of classes and activities for different levels of exercise and ages, is community-minded and convenient, and generally clean and well taken care of. I love going to the sauna in the shower room, but I don't like the fact that there are new rules against throwing water on the stove, when this is clearly the same stove where water has always been thrown to generate steam (and is Finnish-made, where the stoves take water). Also, you should be able to visit the sauna from the showers wrapped in a towel, it's next to them after all and we are in a same-sex locker room!
I would definitely recommend the Y to anyone living in the community, especially to families as there is kidcare in the facility and lots of kids activities. I look forward to finding out if there is a play room in the renovated Y for older kids (8-12), who still need some supervision while the parents work out. It would be nice if the staff engaged this age group better, rather than parking them next to a computer.
All the people i encounter when registering or working in and around the warm water pool are exceptionally friendly and helpful. It dets a positive tone for members, too
It's a real family friendly gym.
Available machines, helpful and friendly staff, clean, wide variety
I enjoy going any time I feel like it. Plenty of equipment to use. Friendly people:)
I very much enjoy the Y experience. I have met many new friends there and look forward to my visits.
Several things I would like to bring to your attention:
1. The men's locker room needs some upgrading. The showers need to be renovated and the lockers need replacement. Something like the lockers in the pool locker room would be satisfactory.
2. The choice of music piped in on the PA is monotonous and banal. With over 130 channels on Sirius XM, it should be possible to listen to something other than Pop Rocks! How about some music from 50's, 60's, 70's, Big Band, Sinatra, or classical?
I enjoy the group exercise classes available such as Zumba, Cardio Dance, and PiYo.
Convenient anywhere I travel
renovations are great. Suggest providing and requiring members, who do not use locks on the gym floor lockers, tags to indicate a locker is in use. very frustrating to have to open and close a dozen or more unlocked lockers to find an empty one.
Also, would really like to see a second entrance available to the building from near the pool. On days when parking lot is full and weather is inclement, it is no fun to have to walk from the back lot to the front entrance.
Friendly, helpful staff. Availability of equipment and open hours.
Nice facilities
The ambiance. Cleaness. Updated equipment. Most of all, the homeschool program
Year round for the whole family. The ability to work out knowing my children are being well supervised elsewhere. Year round swimming.
Many programs offered, affordable.
Like what is available for the older person
I love to go to the Y because it has a wonderful program and the people are very friendly.
The class options are diverse; however, there could be more equipment in the lower weight range and definitely more yoga blocks. Would be great to purchase blocks from Annapolis Green, who sells an environmentally friendly option from used corks.

Great place all around!
Really great meditation/yoga classes with Gretchen and very much enjoyed yoga with Harumi. I am brand new and VERY pleased that I joined.
I haven't been going here long, but so far, everything is going well!
There is something for everyone in the family to do. There are so many class options for mom, lots of gym floor equipment for dad, the rock wall and kids Zumba for our 6 year old and the kids room and tumbling room for our 2 year old. The whole family also enjoys the pool!
I always look forward to the classes
Community and friendly staff. I do wish the basketball courts were more kid friendly though for family time.
Only been twice so far but it has been great! Looking forward to experiencing more!
Jocelyn is an excellent trainer. She listens to our goals and designs a program that works well for our needs. Highly recommend her .
It’s a clean gym. Excellently maintained equipment. The employees are super friendly and helpful.
Wonderful group exercise instructors!
