Childcare for my 8-week old son.
Wonderful staff, excellent facilities.
So far we love the Y in Pasadena and recommend for anyone.
Great staff. The facility is fantastic and clean. The equipment is in great condition and the pool area is great. Class instructors are very friendly and hopeful. Would highly recommend people to check the place out and join.
The range of activities for the community
Family environment. Multiple areas and different ways to stay active. Friendly staff. Weekend hours could be longer.
I love everything about it. The staff that I came in contact with was Amazing. I just finished swim lessons and I always had a great fear of water over my head well with the guides and amazing compassion of my instructor Nancy I have conquered my fear I m in deep water. I also signed up for next swim session with her. I also love the water aerobics
I was delighted to make it off of the waitlist for this event. I have tried to enroll many times before and it was full. It would be amazing if it could be offered multiple times a month.
Great facility with a lot of amenities and everything is very clean. Really great place!
Cleanliness, lots of bathrooms, and lots of equipment and space
the y is a friendly and highly efficient place for exercise and meet old and new friends
I love how family oriented it is. There are lots of activities and options for the whole family.
It is a very comfortable place, so friendly and inviting, it feels like home.
Everything.... Personnel Team, Facility, Programs, Support Options, etc.
My daughter really enjoyed and we are signed up for the spring session.
Daughter loved having Bill as an instructor.
Daughter loved Bill as a swim instructor.
Bill was an awesome instructor.
The free group classes specifically water aerobics and chair yoga. Also senior fitness class with Karen. Instructors are great.
Most of the time, the cardio machines are not completely full so I can get in and out of the gym in a timely manner. I would enjoy if there was one more platform with the rubber weights, because there are a few people who tend to do one rep then take a 20 minute break between sets. That gets frustrating especially when I try and be in and out of the gym in an hour.
One other thing I would like is to see more of the cardio machines have the apps on them. Currently there is one stair master and two treadmills with apps like chess, solitare, and sudoku. That is a fun thing to do while running and I am sure others would enjoy that!
Otherwise the staff is mostly helpful and the front desk people are always in a good mood!
• Convenient Hours
• Great location
• Ample parking
• Well maintained facility. Although some locker doors could use some repair / replacement.
• Friendly staff
• Good selection of equipment that is fairly well maintained, could use a little more attention.

Open airy place to go for a workout.
i enjoy the classes and the ability to get healthier. I am enjoying water walking presently.

I was choosing between Pasadena YMCA & Arnold YMCA. I realize you have the same missions, etc. However, three things made me choose the Pasadena YMCA:
I. I wanted to be in the LiveStrong Program and had problems with finding out info in the community. A friend shared it with YMCA Program Coordinator in Pasadena and she got me to Karen and Mary! BINGO! I have been accepted and already know this is a good program for me.
2. When I cam into the facility to meet with Karen, i liked the attitudes of the staff i encountered. They project, "I like it here. This is my job. You will like it here." To that I say, That attitude as staff are involved in many things, portrays to the prospective and current members that they ARE in the right place.
3. The CEO and Program Coordinator said WELCOME to our group Tuesday evening. Now that's what I want in my community YMCA - that's what it was like growing up as a member in my tiny town of Elkton, MD. The persons responsible for our Pasadena YMCA care enough to say hello to a new group. They are happy, intelligent and personable professionals. You know this YMCA is successful and they want MORE not less success for the members.
