Member Testimonials
Alot of programs and activities refer a friend she like it
The Tellepsen YMCA is a gathering place to enjoy great friendships, activities, and exercise. I can’t say enough good things about the thoughtful and caring staff and instructors who have offered themselves and their skills to make it a welcoming place. My home away from home...
Great facilities, but there should be more programming for children that is not centered on the pool.
SWIMMING
Variety and diversity. Love this facility!
The instructors are professional and very talented and their expertise shows. I have thoroughly enjoyed and have learned much. My favorites that I have participated in or currently attending are: Live Strong, Body Pump, Silver Sneakers Classic, and ADA Water Fitness.
Things do change ....
Reconsider the ‘out of the pool’ policy when thunder and lightning outside
It’s an indoor pool at tellepsen
It’s lightning outside not Inside
If you felt that strongly about getting struck by lightning inside the building then you should clear the whole building (including gym upstairs) ..... not just the pool
EVERYTHING!!
I love the Active Older Adults programming and the community that has developed around those activities--Silver Sneakers, Book Club, trips, parties, taking care of each other, etc.
I love that the Y is intergenerational. It's fun to see the children attending summer school and after school programs.
I love that the exercise equipment is so well maintained and that staff members are so knowledgeable and helpful about the proper use of it.
I love that the locker rooms and rest rooms are clean.
I love that staff are all so welcoming, positive, and helpful.
I love that the Y is involved in community needs--school supplies/backpacks, Christmas gifts, work days.
I joined a gym but found a community center. I LOVE THAT!!
I go to the Telleosen and Trotter Y. I love the indoor track for walking and run training for the half marathon—especially in bad weather. I enjoy some of the spin classes and the lap pool. Enjoy the free covered parking. Staff is super friendly and respectful. I work as a personal trainer in a physical therapy practice and recommend Telleosen Y to clients quite often.

The YMCA is spacious accommodating a lot of activities. It is also convenient being centrally located downtown.
The teaching staff is excellent.
I visit there once a while, and like the group activity. Actually so far only been to Tuesday morning the zumba dance, it's real dance + work out + fun. Also like the walk/run track on roof floor.
Group workout classes!
I like that there are a wide variety of classes offered. The classes are led by professionals in the area of instruction. There are plenty of different times to fit all schedules.
Great facility! Impressed with cleanness.
Senior program activities ( The microphone headsets need to be made operative in the classrooms. Instructors voices over the music is hard to hear when instructors are moving.) Free parking for two hours. A jolt of coffee is appreciated as are the abundance of towels. Most of all........ the facilities are clean and machines are kept in good repair. Thanks to all the Y employees.
Great summer camp for kids! My grandchildren had a blast! The staff were fantastic!!!!!
