Member Testimonials
Very professional and friendly instructors
Your instructors are VERY good. The problem i have with the Y is the shower/locker room facilities. you need to replace ALL the shower heads, clean/replace the ceiling, replace all the dated/ moldy tiles in the shower stalls. the whole building needs a fresh coat of paint and updating
Sauna jacuzzi
This is by far the most inviting YMCA I have ever been in. Word is certainly getting out as the crowds are continuing to grow. I go about three times per week to jog on the treadmill and workout on the circuit. Very clean. Friendly, helpful staff.
Love the mini workout hand towels and cleaning supplies. Thank you!
One day I forgot my earbuds and a staff member offered my a pair of headphones. Thank you!
Les Mills classes
would like more of them
Love the range of group fitness classes. 9:15am classes are very busy- I wish come more classes were added mid morning (Tone, BodyCombat). 7pm classes would be great!
Clean and staff always friendly. Plenty of equipment to do the workouts needed.
Parents night out and fitness classes
I love everything! The new weight machines are a game changer! The classes are great! I thoroughly enjoy the Y!!!!
There are many classes offered during the week at a time that is convenient for me. I especially like the Les Mills programs. The staff at the facility are very friendly and helpful.
Love the new equipment!
WOW program and our instructor Jeff has really changed my life. I love this program. I am felling fitter with more energy and positive mindset since committing to do this program. Jeff is fantastic, super experienced and encourages you to push yourself but not exhaust you.
It is super fun to me and my children
I love the new equipment and layout of the main gym.
The calibre of teachers/ instructors is extremely high. I speak for myself and others when I say that we feel extremely lucky to have such high quality instruction.
Patty and Katie (barre) also Connie (Pilates) all deserve pay raises and an award for excellence.
Unfortunately I cannot say the same for the state of the Y.
The endless air conditioning problems. Studio 3 is either a sauna or a freezer. The fans have been broken for months also.
The colored mats are threadbare and full of holes.
There are not enough of the black mats.
There are not enough of the 2,3 and 4 pound hand weights to go around.
The women’s showers are disgusting, with broken shower heads and no water pressure.
I could go on and on but in short, the place should have been renovated a long time ago.
The ONLY reason I do not go to Spear ( which is closer to my house) is because the teachers and classes at Gills is so awesome.
Thank you.
First name removed
Great variety of programs.
You guys do a pretty good job keeping you website updated with regard to group exercise class changes except occasionally classes are not what the schedule states
Great instructions for the most part. Only a couple are lackadaisical and do not lead the class positively
Variety of programs to choose from
Frequency and variety
I really enjoy the Monday and Wed 800 class with Kelly!
amazing staff, family environment amazing for babies and children! I love the staff and kid zone offerings in addition to the pre school program. So thankful for the YMCA community as a first time mom!
The facility is very clean, the staff is constantly vacuuming, mopping etc. Machines are new and there are enough of them to get a good workout in. Wish they had another dip/pull-up bar machine inside like outside but that is nitpicking. We have not yet had a chance to participate in any group activities or use the pool.
My rating is more so just for the facility overall rather than programs and activities. Love the gym, love the pool, love that additional machines were added and weekend hours extended based on feedback. Love how affordable membership is.
I do wish certain holiday hours were extended. When you close at 1, it gets packed from 10-1 with everyone trying to fit in a workout before close.
Facility is new and lots of weight training options
I like the versatility of tour group fitness classes. The teachers are great and the Speer is so clean and new it feels lime going to a very expensive gym with a hometown feel. No judgements, everyone is so friendly and it’s one of the nicest gyms I've been too.
Staff are helpful and professional.
Setting is clean.
There is a variety of things to do at different times of day
Haven’t attended enough but so far, so good.
