What do you like about your Y experience?

Karen Culp’s classes help the elderly like me. The Y needs to do more chair classes and more for the elderly. That’s why I come. Thank you for keeping me moving.

What do you like about your Y experience?

I prefer the simpler, more traditional exercise equipment, as well as free weights, as their use is not only straightforward, but often more flexible.

What do you like about your Y experience?

My kids love the variety of classes they can try and I love that they are either free or very inexpensive, so it feels like very little risk, as they are 5 year olds and just starting to explore organized sports.

Just a suggestion- please put up coat hooks on a wall somewhere. Now that it’s getting cold, coats are everywhere and using locker rooms with small children in tow is not convenient or feasible sometimes. People are hanging coats on treadmills, leaving them in heaps on the floors, would be nice to have an area to hang the coats and not need to access a locker.

What do you like about your Y experience?

The Y for me is habit - more - a life style decision where I can walk up to old age and say "Get out of my face!" I go nearly every other day since I get an email every month commending my steadiness. Before hiring staff, I think that they must obtain some sort of friendliness quotient. I go regularly to Parkville, Towson and 33rd. My grandson works at Catonsville and I find the same thing: a pleasant greeting, paying attention to questions, desire to assist.
I'm a lap swimmer. I go into the changing rooms and they are always clean. The cleaning staff behave like they are honored to get a prim and proper place.
I spend about an hour and a half in the pool each visit. Minutes churn. If someone want to join me in my lane or vice versa, there is always cordial welcome and we keep going.
Hard to recognize that exercise ain't fun.

What do you like about your Y experience?

The best thing I experienced with my recent visit to the Y was the wonderful customer service given by both Harry and Fred.

Harry was welcoming and provided all the information we were looking for for membership. I look forward to interacting with Harry on our future visits to the Y.

And Fred took time out of his scheduled appointments to give my 13-year-old daughter an orientation to the cardio room. He was funny and informative.

What do you like about your Y experience?

The Y in Towson is the best! The facility is well-maintained, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The weightlifting area has clear windows that not only allow a lot of natural light inside the gym but also let you see the trees and nature around you. It's a lot better than staring at walls.

What do you like about your Y experience?

I love the pool. It's the perfect temperature for both water walking and swimming ( in my opinion).
I love that if you have the flexibility, you can find times for lap swimming where the pool is spacious and calming.
