class Availability is good, the instructor for water exercise Nancy is fabulous, Yet an afternoon or early evening ss Classic like the ones now at tues and thurs at 9:30 am, would be awesome for those who have to work.

If it’s possible to make exercise fun—you do it!
I like the aqua classes. During the work week most of the aqua class attendees are seniors. AM Aqua classes need to be specifically geared for their issues.
Rap music was played the other day that was inappropriate and offensive to seniors in the aqua class. Quite a shock because this class was taught by the absolute best and most consciencious instructor.
Additionally, the music played does not need to be loud. Seniors are trying to preserve their hearing.
The YMCA should work with physical therapists to determine what exercises are taught, how often, etc.
I liked the fact you self scan it yourself in. Loved all the workout equipment. Everyone was very friendly.
I really enjoy the swim classes, especially the ones that Judy teaches.

I love all the great classes and the community vibe of the Hood County YMCA!
Drew was great with our son, Damon. Damon struggles with paying attention for long periods, but Drew was very patient with him. He helped Damon become more acclimated with the water, and he worked on his fear of putting his face underwater. We will definitely be back for more lessons.
I am 3 miles away from the gym. It has great hours and lots of opportunities to work out. I love the hydro board. The staff is awesome!

I like that it has what ever it is you need or use. Everyone is polite and the workout moves along without sitting and waiting for a machine, or weights. Their hours are great also.
