Member Testimonials
HIT classes although some times they become similar to Body Pump which I don’t care for. HIT should remain as intense Cardio workout for fat burning. Weight lifting can be done in the weight room area. My thoughts but over all the staff are polite & friendly. Thank you
The people are wonderful! Everyone at this facility is kind, professional, and friendly.
It’s a great facility. Friendly people. Clean. Nice equipment. I’m looking forward to trying the programs/classes soon.
I tried the Body Balance class for the first time last Tuesday, and I am looking forward to the next class and the next.
Free weights, machines.
Clean facilities, professional instructors, sense of community.

Instructor professional, activities.
I enjoy doing the body pump class. Can y’all consider doing a 6:45pm or 7pm body pump class. I’m not able to make the body pump classes because I get off work at 5:30pm.
Thanks.
Great staff, great machine options and parking.
We love the group exercise use programs, in particular the Les Mills Body Pump classes. Additionally, the 11:15 Friday cycle class is a great workout. Last and most important, the instructors are simply the best with a big shout out to Michelle Gendron and Jan Short. Their instruction and enthusiasm makes every class a great workout!
Child watch is a great feature
The restricted employees give us
I like the variety of classes available!!
The variety of classes and clean facility. I do wish there were a few more times mid day tho
I haven't taken part in any programs but I do like the central location and equipment.
Variety and availability. Especially the online 360 stuff
I like the indoor track and the availability of the ping pong table. I have enjoyed the work outs that were guided by an instructor. Was first introduced to this YMCA because of my affiliation with the Livestrong Program but it is no longer going on due to the pandemic. Because of the Livestrong Program I was introduced to this location and I have continued to enjoy a YMCA membership that allows me to come here.
I love the Power Yoga, but it is way too cold in the room for a yoga class. My muscles take forever to warm up because we move slowly.
The hours of operation are convenient. The classes do not fit my schedule though.

We like to swim and use the hot tub. We are grateful that the Y now accepts Silver Sneakers memberships, a real help for those of us who are retired but value exercise.
