Member Testimonials
Pickleball. Wish we had more courts.
facility is awesome with Scriptures on the walls and a Believer's atmosphere, equipment selections, amenities and so many activities for all age groups, helpful friendly staff, ample parking, safe neighborhood, and kept very clean by members and staff.
The group exercise class variety combined with the workout room equipment so something for everybody.
Excellent aquatic staff and facilities

Excellent
I enjoy many classes
Please add more
So many activities to choose from. Great instructors for classes.
Well I primarly use the pool and weights, but will look into some of the classes
Programs are suitable and location meets my present needs.
Good work out area.
Enjoy the group exercises including Body Flow, Body Combat, Body Jump, Zumba, etc. The hours are flexible and all the instructors are very professional.
Lots to do with experienced trainers
For summer I like the outside pools
I like the swimming pool, but i do not like the fact that it is essentially closed to lap swimming from 4pm every day for swim lessons. there are too many members who like to do lap swimming for exercise and 2 lanes to share is not enough. I dont know the solution, since I also am fully supportive of having swim lessons available
I slipped on the tile floor that leads from the pool entrance to the mens locker room and hit my head on the wall. No permanent injury, but more of the floor needs to be covered by the non skid mats.
every thing
The youth programs and the early morning gym access
Family swim. The pool with the slide. The availability of life guards on duty.
My mom loves the aqua fitness classes, but they fill up so fast. More offerings would be great. Thank you though for all you do!
Swimming pool, clean water. We swam different pools. There’s some other YMCA outdoor pool so disgusting. We like the cleanness of Weekley pool!
There is a variety for all age groups - something for everyone.
I only use the Wellness Center. I appreciate the staff, especially Martha.
Love the reservation system for swimming
good cordio and excerzie programs
Spin classes!😀
I like the boot camp classes. Locker rooms are nice too. Clean and good amenities.
Since returning to the Y in April 2021 (after receiving the COVID vaccinations), my involvement has exclusively been group classes.
Overall, I am pleased with the ease of signing up for classes. It does take some planning to sign up right away when classes become available and many times I've been waitlisted for my favorite classes/teachers. (I am semi-retired so my schedule fluctuates.)
My only complaint--and granted it is small--is that if I am on a waitlist, my clearance to attend can be (like this am) 20 minutes before the start of the class. That doesn't work unless one lives next door!
I doubt there is a fix, as I assume this complex reservation system works automatically.
The broader question is whether the classes will continue to be limited in #. Honestly, I will give up the freedom of attending classes without reservations for the comfort of being in a class that's not packed.
Fyi, I have been a Y member for 40 years in various cities I've lived in. Since moving to Houston, my son attended Y after-school programs and summer day camps through middle school. Although I do not identify as Christian, I appreciate the non-profit mission, the diversity of the membership and the family atmosphere. The staff do a good job of making everyone feel welcome.
Also, although I've heard others complain about it, I love the comfortable if slightly chaotic vibe of young people in the building. I've wondered why those who park their Mercedes and BMWs are members, but I understand why someone would choose the Y instead of the Houstonian, etc.

I love my Pilates classes. The pool is clean too.
Range of programs to include all ages and skill sets
I like the staff members and their polite, friendly behavior. Also, the equipment is available at all times during the day. The Weekly YMCA is a happy place, for which I I am grateful to be a member.
