Member Testimonials
Ann is an amazing swim teacher!! She is building so much confidence in my daughter who began lessons crying and screaming. She now loves her class, goes under water, and floats on her back! It’s amazing to watch her learn and comforting to see how she trusts Ms. Ann. So grateful for the amazing people at the Y!
Excellent instructors. Matt (or Mark?) does a fantastic job teaching the children with patience and kindness. He is an incredible asset to your team at Lyons
I greatly admire long-term staff members like Vev at the Front Desk and Sue Brown who has been the backbone of the water aquatics for 25 YEARS. Few people know the extent to which Sue goes to be helpful to anyone in and outside of the YMCA Community
I have been at the MELyons Y for 30 years and Vev has always been a constant source of friendliness and information at the front desk. It will be a sad day when she retires…..I hope no time soon.
Kids programs like soccer swim lessons etC
Every swim instructor has been amazingly patient and our 2 kids grow stronger swimmers each week they r excited to show us the new skills
We adore our instructor Ms Ann. She has been so wonderful with our little guy who is really unsure about swimming and has made some tremendous progress with him feeling more comfortable in the water! He also typically has a hard time separating but we love her sense of confidence she instills in him and he walks away so proud of himself after each lesson. We could sing her praises all day and are truly just thankful to have her!
We have been very happy with our swim class!
My son really enjoys the instruction!
Great teachers, take the time to help our son learn. Always on time which is appreciated!

I like pools and lap swimming opportunities. Life guard support is excellent. This Y is lucky to have Bridgett running the place.
Instructors are awesome!
Easy to access, enjoyable, lots of availability, lots of variety, great teachers, childcare
I haven't been involved in any of these things. I've visited twice, but I've talked to some very kind people here including staff. That says a lot about your Y! Thank you!
Katie's classes are great. I enjoy the work out and her attitude and encouragement. I like going to Zumba, water aerobics, and yoga classes.
Variety of activities.
everyone is very friendly, classes are very helpful
I really like the group exercise classes. The front desk staff is always friendly.
The workout area is very nice and there's good options for use of equipment. Both pools are very nice. I would like some more sports that my older son can join, he's too old for the basketball teams and he really wants to play but his school doesn't offer it.
The pools, cardio, and weight rooms
This Y is GREAT!!!
Sports for kids, lap times for pool, after school programs Jess is great - Caden/Parker's dad
