Member Testimonials
The varity of classes.
The people, both behind the desk and the ones in the programs. They are all friendly and dedicated to the program. Pickleball is the best, it doesn't what level of play you are they will play to your level. This helps the beginners the chance to improve without getting frustrated by losing every time.
Water aerobics - very friendly and helpful
Open swim
Love this YMCA kid friendly never ever have to worry about anything
It’s a hobby for me.
There is a group of us Seniors who meet most early mornings in the pool.
We exercise, we socialize, we listen, we share, we empathize, we welcome newcomers, we laugh, we grow etc., etc., etc.
It’s my home away from home!
I love the Egym!
Love the staff and my fellow classmates.
You have what I need for better health

I have been a member of the Brown Deer YMCA for over 30 years. I am there almost every day. I don’t participate in the programs and activities as much anymore. I use the fitness center.

Everything
I try to get there for each Silver Sneakers 1 PM class, as it helps me stay in shape. I also like meeting up with other beginners at the Pickleball courts. Just got started on your EGYM, so I'll try that for awhile.
Cleanliness, good equipment choices. Hours open.
The walking track and new workout machines
I like that you have programs for Seniors and I love the Schroeder Pool. I did join the WAC a few years ago because it was less than a block away from my house, however the water temperature in the pool felt like it was 90 degrees. The temperature in the Schroeder Pool is perfect when you're swimming multiple laps. I also like the equipment there. I'm not real excited with the E-Gym. I can't seem to get the hang of it and every time I do a work on it, it says that I'm over 80 years old which is a little depressing, so I've gone back to the regular weights.
Because I've been a member there since 1982 I do know a few people, so that part of it is fun as well.
Many fitness programs are available for people of all ages!
I like the way that people are so very friendly and the staff is very helpful and how they engage with the people that attend. So very much to do to get in shape and to stay healthy the cleaning crew are excellent in keeping the place clean. I enjoy being able to come to a place where I absolutely feel very comfortable and welcoming
Variety
For my particular needs, I enjoy the early access at 5 am and being able to start my day in a positive way.
