Member Testimonials
The amenities at the downtown YMCA are second to none in the Louisville Metro area. My list would include the convenient parking lot, secure facility, locker rooms with individual private lockers, a wide range of Cybex weight equipment, an extensive collection of traditional weight lifting equipment, a vast array of cardio machines equipped with individual TV screens, indoor pool, spin class room, individual fitness trainers and many group led fitness classes, sauna, steam room, laundry service, need I say more. When the new Jewish Community Center opened recently, I toured it to see if I might want to switch gyms. It is a really nice facility as well; but still does not have everything that the downtown YMCA has to offer.
Variety of equipment. The studio training room. Facility is clean and bathrooms are convenient.
I like having someone to show me how to use the equipment.
Convenient, good quality!
Proximity to my workplace so I can go immediately after work, no excuses (most of the time); friendly staff, recent updates, accessibility of equipment.
Cleanliness and friendly staff

Lane the massage therapist was awesome
The people are very friendly, and there are plenty of machines to use. I have a special needs son and there’s plenty of room for me to maneuver him in the workout room.
Yoga class, track
Friendly helpful staff, great hours, lots of terrific equipment, great classes.
It is a really nice facility, and most people are very conscientious about keeping the equipment sanitized after use. I really appreciate Jonathon very much because he always has a welcoming and happy disposition, and he always has the gym open on time in the morning. He's the best!
