Member Testimonials
I really like the group classes, because I get to socialize with people ☺️
staff is very friendly and helpful.
A group from our Silver Sneakers class (amazingly instructed by Donna) gathered for lunch today to celebrate Shirley's 90th birthday.
To paraphrase Shirley's own words, when asked what her healthy, longevity secret is she stated; the secret to living to 90 is to jog for as many years as you can, and when you can no longer jog, join the YMCA and go as often as they open the doors.
I go to Donna's Silver Sneakers class and Carol's Gentle Yoga class. These two instructors are so gifted in their knowledge and class instruction skills. Just check out how many regular attendees they have in their classes.
The activities are great but the rooms are too small to accomodate the amount of folks that want to workout. I've been in Benbrook for 23 years and this area and along Hwy 377 has grown so much. At one point there has to be an expansion to this faciclity.
The staff is great, and the place is kept immaculately clean. Equipment is fixed quickly and there are a ton of machines and free weights. Counting the rack in the "dance" room, there are four separate racks for dumbbells 5 - 40#'s.
You can leave your car keys and phone in the cubbie area while you work out a not have to worry about theft.
Silver sneakers has great teachers.
I spend most of my mornings at Eastside YMCA depending on the class attended 8:00am-11:30am chair yoga, Silverssneakers, chair volleyball, Line Dance, bingo and evenings 6p-8p Stretch and Flexibility or line dance. The instructors are great, give good directions for the exercises, give you alternate options if can't stand or praise arms above shoulders and encourage you to work to your potential. Front desk staff Ms. Cheryl and Passion encourage members to sign up for upcoming events. I've made new friends since becoming a member we even hang out outside of Y activities. Also after class a few members and I may play dominoes. I enjoy being a member of the Y. My husband looks forward to classes

Y warrior class with crystal is great. I wish the y would buy some bigger dumb bells for the class though
I enjoy the coffee
Love the EGym and especially love all the yoga, Pilates and BodyBalance classes.
I love Water Aerobics and have been attending the Mon, Wed, Friday classes for years. In the last few years, we have had a lot of turnover with instructors. Donna (the Friday & substitute instructor) should never have been hired. Even though she has been an instructor for about a year now, she spends a lot of time reading instructions. She also spends most of the time in the water and we have no idea what she is asking us to do. Attendance on Friday is very low.
It is actually depressing. I have decided to either go to Silver Sneakers on Friday and go to Saturday Water Aerobics.
Clean and friendly gym. Dewey at the front desk is amazing. As is the woman at the front desk.
We enjoy the friendly staff and all the community programs offered by the Y!
Been going to Y for 21 years, now 86 years old. Keeps me energetic and flexible. Plus the companionship is needed by all. Instructor is great, and keeps it fun and interesting. The month-end luncheon is always good for all. There are classes for all levels of ability for participants. SO, I will keep coming as long as I can. There are a few in their 90's. Love the YMCA.
