Variety
Friendly & knowledge instructors.
Everything. It's simply an amazing place to get and stay fit, and it offers an abundance of great information through specialized sessions. The facility is always clean, and the staff and trainers are friendly and helpful.
AOA programs, classes and social events. Friendly staff
Great facility. Always something to do. Wonderful staff.
Honestly, it's the facility that I love. My kids are older now, so I have more time to workout when I want to, and I love the quantity and availability of the different machines. And the track is the best! It's also very convenient to park there and I appreciate that it's free for two hours of parking. Lastly, the staff is awesome - kind and very present. Oh, and best of all - the AC cools down even the hottest summer days.
The group exercise classes are amazing! The instructors always have so much love and enthusiasm for their classes and make working out fun. The schedule makes sure I can fit in a few classes a week and have some variety in my workout. Child watch is also amazing and my son always loves him time there. It is great that I can get in a workout without having to worry about getting a babysitter or trying to workout with him.
Water Aerobics! Beautiful facility, friendly staff.
Positive feedback and information provided with all programs and activities.
There’s always exercise classes available.
Excellent environment and staff.
Lunchtime workout classes. But, i wish you had more Yoga and would add a few stretching classes for the 4:30 time slot.
The programs are flexible and a lot of variety. Instructors are very good.
I like your group exercise classes such as cycling and body pump.
I love all the classes and the facility in general. I'm sad that the program director got rid of Body Jam. It was a great class, alway had good attendance and it made the Tellepsen YMCA special because not very many facilities offered it. It was taught by the most amazing and best qualified instructor Amanda Bennett. I really wish the YMCA would have done more to keep her on board. The Tellepsen Y lost a great talent.
I use the gym exclusively, but am aware of the many programs the Y offers. Unfortunately my insurance does not cover silver sneakers. I need to check out yoga sessions.
I love the Tellepsen YMCA!!!
The variety of programs for people of different ages and abilities
The variety of people--ages, sizes, mobility, fitness levels--and how all are welcomed and provided with interesting and engaging activities.
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.
Love the Silver Sneaker classes. It’s a great way to make friends and exercise at the same time! Win win!
