Friendly staff and clean facility.
Great facility! I joined just recently and couldn't be happier! :-)
Friendly staff.Good equipment
My first time won't be my last! Everyone was very friendly and helpful and my Zumba instructor on Friday evening was incredible. Full of energy and a great workout. The facilities are very nicely renovated and enjoyable. I'm halfway between Victory and the Newport News Y, and I will more than likely be coming here more because of it's fresh design. But both facilities have really great people working there. Thank you!
My children had a great experience at swim class.
I felt welcomed and comfortable and it was not crowded at all.
I joined on Saturday, August 15th, following my participation in Sentara Cardiac Rehab. The process for joining was very welcoming and smooth, and we had a brief tour of the exercise rooms. I have an appointment with one of your exercise coaches this Thursday and after that look forward to coming regularly to exercise. Thank you. First name removed "Tom" Last name removed
The 24hr access is so so helpful. I like the toddler swim as well. Plus, the sauna and wellness areas are my happy place on Saturday mornings. It’s so nice that my kids can go to child watch, too. Thanks for all the useful services for busy families trying to stay fit!
Everything about our YMCA mathews county folks is awesome. My husband and I have been members since it first came to our county. The PEOPLE and trainers and course instructors are just the best. We are so very lucky to have our Y and its amazing people who work there !

The front desk staff is friendly and welcoming whenever I walk in the front door. I come for the exercise classes that feature cardio and strength training, with Liz Patton being my favorite instructor. Liz makes each class fresh and fun.
The new fitness machines. The hours of operation.

The Mathews YMCA is a gift to our small, local community. Great people running and working it. Always clean. Good upkeep on the machines and equipment. Really appreciate the willingness to include new classes, etc. Now.....if we could just get a rowing machine! 😁

Staff is friendly. Large lap pool with lifeguards on duty. Smaller pool for therapy and younger kids. Nice gym. Nice locker room. Patrons are friendly. Equipment is maintained. Trainers are friendly and helpful. It's a nice place to exercise, swim and meet people. Great location.
Group Fitness classes. Wish some classes could be offered more than once in a day to have an option in time. Of course, that requires more instructors. The facility is clean and organized. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Everyone was friendly as I needed help finding the new workout rooms.
