Incredible yoga class led by Chris on Mondays and Wednesdays!!

I love the cleanliness of the facility and the ability to come 8n and always have a machine to workout on. The staff is helpful and nice.
We are looking forward to all of your outdoor activities offered. As soon as it gets warmer!
Tulsa Backyard offers: Wonderfaul access to Turkey mountain, A decent fitness facility, access to canoes and barbecue pits in season, and a great water park. Great place for families to work out and spend quality time together.
Good customer service. It's close and convenient for me and my family to visit.
Love the outdoors activities -- playground, lake, MOMO slide. We used the basketball courts to practice for Kindergarden basketball over Christmas break.
Love the pool
The Herman & Kate YMCA was the perfect venue for my mother's 90th birthday celebration. The WiFi and Audio Visual equipment was in perfect condition as we shared slide shows of my mom with the guests. The picture was perfect on the Screen. The facility was very clean and well supplied with every thing we needed. If we needed anything staff was there on site to provide it. The catering kitchen worked out great for our caterer. The huge refrigerator and sinks and area for preparing food came in handy. All the staff especially Kelcey, Taylor, Mark and those that I can't remember their names were very helpful and accommodating. I appreciate them so much. I made several trips to the YMCA to get measurements take additional pictures and everyone was so willing to assist. This facility is beautiful definitely perfect setting for any event. I will highly recommend it to all my friends and family.
Thank you,

My children loved the program and can't wait for the summer to attend. I like how big and nice the facility is. I especially love how they are experiencing new things with other new faces.
Great coaches! Reasonable price. Keeps our children engaged.
Thank you so much
wonderful facility great program coordinator and my grandkids are well supervised.
The coaches are kind, patient, and encouraging. Both of my children are in brand new sports this year and have a lot to learn. This is a great place to start a new sport when your kids are not yet ready for a super competitive level.
Loved the staff. Everyone was so easy to work with!
I like the fact that Tate is spending outdoor time, as well as indoor time. He always has a good time!
I think the Kaiser YMCA is one of the best kept secrets in Tulsa. Great people, great campus, love the access to Turkey Mountain.
All the staff amability and the natural space around.
The large conference worked great, no issues with computer and monitor set up. It was also nice having a kitchen in the room for lunch made set up and clean up easy. Beautiful scenery!! We will be back.
This was our first experience with this location. My kids absolutely loved the fall break camp. they came home every day talking about the different nature-based activities that they did and how they felt safe. I would highly recommend this location if your child needs a small group environment.
I love the fact that there is no screen time! My son loves camp and all the activities that he gets to do. He loves to be outside and he learns lots of things while getting to play with kids his own age and meet new friends. Camp also gives him exposure to some sports to see if it is something he may like.
Yoga
I love that this YMCA encourages activities outdoors, that there's not a bunch of people there every time I go, it's a great environment for my kids and I. We love to go for hikes as a family and I'm so glad we signed up for this membership
The Kaiser YMCA property is sprawling and gorgeous, allowing a lot of flexibility for exercise. Taking a walk around the pond is so peaceful. Yoga classes are rich in community and keep my body moving! Chris Beck is an awesome teacher, so kind and compassionate. She really wants everyone to enjoy the class and feel better than when you walked in. The YMCA is a very inclusive environment! I have found a second home.
We love that there are outdoor activities and that the children are active and engaged. I heard from the boys that there were two young female staff members during spring camp who screamed at the kids often, and this scared the boys. The boys told me if one kid did something wrong, they would all get in trouble. I would speak to some of the younger staff about how to handle difficult children and have a protocol on how to handle children that disrupt the setting. Maybe having a three strikes-your-out rule and sending them to the front office and separating them from their peers?
This is something that definitely needs to be discussed with staff, and some very clear rules need to be put in place for kids and parents to understand what rules need to be followed to participate in camp.
