Member Testimonials
Convenience
The mission of the Y is important to me. And the E-gym and classes are terrific
Everyone has been very kind. I wish there was a greater variety of dumbbell weights in the back room. Such as 15 & 20 pounds. Otherwise I love how clean the facility is and respectful everyone is.
The helpful and welcoming staff; the course selection; the family atmosphere; Kell6 Keh’s Flexibility class!
Multiple fitness classes. State of the art fitness equipment. Indoor pickleball drop in sessions.
Large swimming pool for multiple purposes including fitness classes, lessons, lane swim, and a large section for family swimming. There are numerous and watchful. Finally, the rock climbing wall with times for young kids is wonderful! I love being a member of a dynamic community entity.
I love the staff and the people!!
Community, value, location
Convenient location
I like the inclusive atmosphere, clean equipment that is regularly updated and supports a variety of exercises, and the helpful staff. The array of class offerings is also great. What I've not enjoyed lately is the Saturday morning 8am Body Pump teacher at the Orokawa center. She doesn't have voice that projects, the mic often doesn't work, she doesn't reinforce good form, she doesn't show modifications, and she lacks the energy that most Body Pump teachers have to really get you going. Her quiet energy is the most frustrating part of coming to an 8am class on a Saturday- I need teachers who pump me up and encourage me! Most do- she doesn't.
Very welcoming environment; great instructors and programs
Flexible hours, friendly staff, clean facility, excellent (but often crowded) lap pool, and an inviting ambiance.
I love the classes, I love the equipment you have. It’s always clean and staff is very friendly
We have been Y members before and the receptionist explained our old file had to be linked to our new one and would take a day or two. She was very helpful and nice and explained things clearly.
Love the YMCA, Great place to get a work out. Everyone is friendly.
Excellent! The Towson Y is without a question the best gym in the area. It’s clean, wonderful staff, great
equipment, family oriented. On top of that you have a pool and a sauna. What else do you want?
My kids like the pool and the climbing wall. Haven’t had the change to do programs or the gym yet.
Nice gym
Good selection of equipment.
I like the group exercise classes.
The equipment is always in good order . Staff is always helpful and friendly.
It is fun to work out and make friends at the Y to encourage and support you.
Friendly staff, clean workout areas
I like the exercise classes especially BodyPump with Angela and Lauren. I enjoy the exercise equipment. The price is affordable and the building is clean and well maintained. Keep up the great work!
Amazing instructors and community.
The facility is well maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the range of programs is impressive. The monthly membership fee is starting to get a bit steep, but it remains reasonable, given all of the services. My only complaints would be:
You could use another one or two of the most popular weight machines, which tend to be backed up.
Perhaps this is just a feature of modern life, but it's frustrating to watch people get on a machine and then take a break to read their text message or check their social media feeds on their smartphone, sometimes for 5-10 minutes, while others wait to work in on those machines. I sometimes say something to someone -- and they generally are polite -- but it seems like it shouldn't be necessary.
The pool sometimes is closed when there is an electrical storm reported anywhere east of Ohio. I understand the need to be prudent, but really.
So far the programs for kids and especially gym is good.
