Member Testimonials
the staff is amazing and caring. i would highly recommend the y to my family and friends
All the activities that are offered. Just wonderful. My children were so excited. There is so much to do.
The hours. The instructors. That it is a welcoming and vital part of the community where I work and live.
I like the initial embrace and acknowledgment of my child by other Y members. I liked especially how initial communications between staff and child led to improvement in the child’s self esteem, confidence over the time he has been in membership and especially the results.
The hope is that with expansions improvements and diversification of services and personnel there will be continued progress where involvements and interactions remain positive and within the growth mindset for all.
Ms. JoAnn was very patient with the kids. She encouraged them and helped them after class when they asked her. The class size was good at 5 or so kids. Any larger and it would have been hard to control and make productive progress.
I came to this Y because I was taking a swim class when I had a bad experience at the Y in Dundalk.
I continued class at the 33rd St. Y and even though I was two classes behind, I still learned do many of the tasks that were taught to me. Bex was an excellent instructor! I wish I could have her again. I will be taking the class again in March because I still have things I need to master before moving on.

I enjoy the swim programs at the YMCA and my child's progress towards becoming a confident swimmer.
The instructor was very knowledgeable and supportive of students moving at their own pace.

Family friendly, clean
Everyone is always extremely welcoming. I feel safe and like I belong when I go to the Waverly YMCA. I really appreciate how diverse the community using the YMCA is, and it feels good to spend the time around kids and seniors and everyone in between. I also like that the hours have made it very easy to fit a swim into my schedule almost every other day, and my fitness and health are improving as a result. Thank you!
You guys do a good job of keeping things feeling new and updated. It's a bright, clean facility. It draws a diverse crowd both in terms of race and age. Only complaint is that there's no wifi and the reception in there is terrible.
There is always something to do at the Y.
Great value
It's like the TV show Cheers- you run into so many people you know (staff and other people working out alike) and everyone is so friendly!
The staff at the YMCA are professional and helpful to me. The facility and the equipment are clean. The environment are safe and productive for my exercising experience.
The Y has everything that I would expect from a gym with a friendly atmosphere and very reasonable price.
I love aqua fitness. It would be nice if you offered it on the weekend too.

Friendly staff
