Member Testimonials
Love all of the Silver Sneakers classes. Great variety of workouts.
Many good things. Group Power can be fun or whip our butts; Yoga Bob is very good. Most everybody is friendly and Christian! They care about families!
Love how updated the facility is with relevant classes, like pickleball and a variety of water activities.
Love Love the swimming pool and the exercise we can get there. Like the dry heat room, our new showers and dressing rooms. The only thing we women need are new toilets that are taller for the handicapped. At least two of them need to be replaced with hand rails. We have had the same ones since I started using the YMCA Lyons in 2015 since I retired. Thank you for your consideration.
We've only been a member for about a week but so far everyone has been very friendly.
An effort has been made to appeal to a variety of people. I like the different age range of members. The effort is made to provide a variety of classes and programs so there is something for everyone.

The variety something for everyone
Swimming laps. I especially appreciate the renovated showers in women’s locker room.
Every time I enter the building I am greeted by someone behind the desk with a genuine hello.
Easy to register, friendly greeters, great barre class and outdoor pickleball!
I do not take advantage of all classes due to the time of day. I prefer earlier than later. I miss the class of body sculpting, which works the whole body but not at a high intensity.
Traditional, family orientated, well organized, wonderful staff, clean facility.
Swimming
The sauna!
Great hours, lots of classes, nice work out area, and the pool!
Ms Ann is the best of the best!
Many to choose from
We are so very blessed to have Bridget leading our Y. The ME Lyons YMCA is a huge part of my families life. Ann Gartner has taught my 3 kids to swim and now they are teens and swimming on club teams. I’ve never seen Randall without a smile on his face. He is passionate about his job and it shows. I’m also grateful Bridget lets us use the conference room each week for our Ladies Bible Study.
We have the most amazing Y!
