Member Testimonials
I am a divorced single mom going thru very tough times with my 3 little kids. I've been taking them to YMCA in the past 3 years. My kids love here, feel like home, learned how to swim... I cannot tell you enough about how wonderful this facility and their programs are. We are being healed and being rebuilt. Our lives were profoundly transformed here and I look forward to the bright future God plans for us.

I like the wide variety of equipment, not crazy about Matrix but love the Cybex and Hammer stuff. I appreciate that the custodial staff is always on top of keeping the facility clean but I wish staff would talk to some of the guys who, dripping with sweat, move from machine to machine and make no effort to clean up behind themselves. I also wish there was some enforcement of the No Cell Phone rules, I'm tired of waiting while people sit on equipment texting or reading emails. I think it is a great facility overall but there is room for improvement.
excellent equipment. many programs. friendly, helpful, knowledgable staff. member diversity-all ages and a reflection of Houston's diverse population. We truly enjoy the welcome atmosphere at the Tellepsen.
I attend the wellness classes at the Weekly YMCA (as they were not offered downtown) and my sons workout at the Tellepsen. Now that they have found times that are not too crowded, they are quite happy.
Classes always available! Love it!!
Love the group exercise classes. Missing body jam though; sad it was canceled.

Love love all programs as well
