Classes
Love the “Fit for Life” class.
Many different activities and friendly staff
When I was eligible for Silver Sneakers, I attended another YMCA. I tread water and do water exercises because it is easier on my joints and body. (I have a couple of old injuries). That pool was wonderful the first year I went there. Then new leadership took over, and turned down the temperature of the pool and I would go home and could not get my core warm. I noticed several seniors left, and I was dreading to go myself. So I made the choice to try the Highland YMCA. A choice I am so happy I made, for many reasons. The number one reason is the temperature of the water in the pool. It is wonderful for seniors. I look forward to going on cold days because I know it will be a great experience. i do get a few laps in on the walking track as well before I leave the YMCA.
The facility is beautiful. It is very clean as well. Although, I do not participate in classes, I hear many talk about how much they enjoy them. When I was younger, I would have loved the classes.
The staff may be the biggest asset for the YMCA. They are friendly, make people feel welcome, and accommodating. Thanks to the Highland YMCA, I am looking forward to the next few months of keeping myself moving during these cold months.
All personnel are kind and welcoming and knowledgeable. If I ever had a question, it has been answered and lead me down the right path. I must mention Holly. our Solver Sneakers instructor. She is always prepared and appears to truly enjoy adding some variety to each class. Thank you Y for helping me be healthier and happier.

Great instructors
Just a good place to enjoy and exercise. Great people and a truly wonderful asset to our community. Thank you to all.
The programs are easy to follow and add up. The facility is clean and well taken care of. The Fitness Center is well balanced and spaced out nicely. Keep up the good work guys.
Your Yoga classes and “Group Power” and Body Balance are all great. Yoga Bob is just such a wise and great teacher who really cares and makes Yoga classes very nice. I also have been luck enough to have a guide like Margie Casssni as a personal trainer and can use the machines in your workout room to keep in shape. Your front desk greeters are almost always helpful and nice and make questions it a problem. Just love the Y and their help living longer and healthier!! Thanks!!
The workout room.
Good variety of programs and activities. My wife and I are now in our 50's and use the exercise room. Our children formally participated, and I coached youth soccer, basketball, and t-ball. They also used the summer camps during summer vacation.
THE swimming pools and the fitness center
The accessibility, the people, the program are all great! The people are always so kind and helpful. I love the water aerobics classes!
