I enjoy the morning classes and the talented instructors. However, I wish the Rite Hite YMCA would get more fans for the studios/classes. It gets really hot and uncomfortable in studios 6 and 7. Please get some more fans.
Thank you
Good employees
Very Good..
I like the body pump classes. I like the new Franklin YMCA.
Lynda is one of the best instructors ever. Body flow is great. The equipment is nice and there is a great variety to use.
Your weakest link continues to be simple to fix "disability"issues in the locker room (female at least) : In the 3 wide body, wheelchair accessible showers,
1) only 2 have grab bars, (at least last time I checked)
2) the removable shower head is very cheap and apparently not easy to figure out as people keep trying to pull 1st, rather than lift and then pull. They don't realize it is not a spring loaded holding device.
I have repeatedly suggested a simple water proofed diagram on the wall next to shower head.
Surely that is cheaper than having to continue replacing with non-institutional grade devices.
3) the soap dispensers are mounted too high, making a person have to stand to access it.
The pool into woman's locker room auto-door opener worked only 1 week (after my last mention when it was supposedly fixed.
The placement of the skid proof long mats from the showers to the dressing/locker area should be placed closer to the actual shower entry/exit tile rather than several yards away to lessen the chance on slipping on wet tiles.
Thank you for your consideration.
Excellent gym
Please bring back the Senior Chair Yoga!

Easy to access classes, variety of ones to choose from daily
Large workout areas and equipment. Women's locker room. Swimming options. Especially Scroeder pool. Location.
Safe environment, Friendly employees and the people that attend this facility are friendly, caring and helpful. Equipment in good condition mostly. Once a year the pool is cleaned. I would like to see the floors in the womans showers cleaned. That's about it. The open hours are great.
The Y is more than just a fitness center and pool. Over the years, I have met so many people and it is such a caring community. I recently broke my arm. So many people wondered were I was since I didn't show up for 3 months. One of my fitness class friends tracked me down and drove me to the Y for a couple classes a week until I could drive myself.
You have a lot of different equipment that meet my needs and I don't have to wait until someone is done with the equipment I need for my area's of the body that needs work.
Love the Schroeder pool!!!! Clean facility with friendly people :)
I like how you've added more classes to the schedule. Love the Body Step classes.
I love all of the programs designed for the elderly. I also like the Schroeder pool and the water exercises. I also enjoy the workout room and the track. I think it’s great that there is something for everyone no matter what their age.
I am a group exercise instructor and teach 3 times per week. I see attendance is poor and consistently poor since COVID. I have not seen a flux of new members and I see long time members have not returned to the YMCA since March 2020. My hope is there is a greater emphasis on instructor recruitment and membership recruitment. I cannot see the viability in the group exercise program without more attention.
Lynda Hopkins is a fabulous instructor! I've tried classes at other clubs and nothing compares. She's a gem!
I like the wide variety of activities to choose from and the friendly people that work and workout there.
