Member Testimonials
The welcoming, laid back atmosphere. The diversity, family-friendly attitude, the classes, the equipment. I love seeing neighbors and other friends at the Y. Like the price, I like most of the trainers. I wish there was a way to give feedback about them. But none of trainers is so bad that I wouldn't attend a class.
I like the range of activities and the large number of machines available in the main room. Staff is courteous and helpful. It is clean too.
It would be nice to have some more evening group classes for those of us who get home from work at 6 and head to the gym closer to 7.
One of the best YMCA in Baltimore County, if not the best! The staff is always very friendly and the facility meets all our needs.
The verse activities provided for the different ages
Excellent coaches and setup! Lots of fun for kids and parents alike!
Friendly supportive atmosphere. Lots of options for every age and level. An wide array of classes and programs.
It has so much to offer and so convenient
Ellie is a fantastic teacher/coach! She motivates me and I leave that class feeling strong and empowered
Swimming. And gym.
Clean, friendly
The PNO staff has been so wonderful with pur children. Prior to joining the Y, we were lucky to get one date night a year bc sitters are so expensive! Now we can have 1 a month.
Everything. The facility, the people, the vibe. I love the windows! I love the sauna! I like the myriad opportunities for the children. The Orokawa Y truly is a happy place where my family likes to be
Great climbing class for kids - gets them engaged and exercising!
Convenient and helpful service
Clean and well run.
The pools are great, and you have a great number of machines. Good classes too!
Stay & Play, CLEAN
I like the small class.
Friendly staff!
I love how there are a lot of options for getting fit. The facilities are lovely and the childcare is great. I only wish there were designated parking spots for mothers with infants! Target and IKEA have them so the Y should too.
Friendly environment. Variety of workout options: machines, cardio equipment, pool, classes.
The Orakawa YMCA is a wonderful place. It helps to build healthy bodies, minds and relationships!
It is a very nice family place with plenty of facilities for everyone to enjoy. I highly recommend the Y to my friends.
The facilities are excellent. A little more heat in the locker rooms would be nice.
I haven’t been a member for very long yet, but so far I have found that the trainers are very knowledgeable and very nice. The equipment is great also.
My trainer, Thalmus Allen
Modern open venue with lots of machines. Reasonable price.
Beautiful clean, kid-friendly facilities, kind and caring staff, lots of room to swim, workout and play basketball or other games. Convenient free parking.
From the moment you walk in the door, you are made to feel welcome. The Orokawa Y is so very clean and well-maintained, and I love that it is such a "green" building. The equipment is up-to-date and the people helpful. The early opening works very well for me.
(Can't say I don't appreciate the free coffee as well!).
The bikes with the games are the best! Also the other machines with video experiences. And the stretching machines are great too. Plus the water classes are great for those of us who can't do high-impact activities. Really enjoying this YMCA.
