Member Testimonials
The staff at the Y is amazing. Especially the childcare - my kids love it and everyone greets them by name. Can't say enough positive things about the Y.
Great exercise equipment, indoor track, good classes, community outreach, helpful/positive staff.
I like the racquetball courts - although have not been able to play with pandemic.
I like the weight machines and free weights.
There is one weight machine that was removed and never replaced, where you sit and lift your shoulders up to develop your top line. Can you get a replacement? Thanks.
I like the availability of group exercise classes!
Clean machines, friendly environment, kind staff!

I like the organization, consistent communications and overall climate of the gym.
Very convenient for people working and/or living downtown. Also, the employees there keep all the machinery and the locker rooms very clean. Better than other Y locations I've visited.
Wealth of equipment, classes and best of all 5 minutes away!
Size of the weight room and all the equipment
The Y offers activities for all ages. The staff is always friendly and the gym (Tellepsen) is the cleanest gym I have ever seen.
Awesome classes and instructors.
Diversity of the programs!
We love it.
Facility is close to my home. It is well laid-out and clean with a great variety of activities. I like the 5th floor track very much. The 4th floor gym has a great number of machines and work-out tools. The fees are not expensive and the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoy going there and highly recommend it.
I was a long time downtown YMCA member and then we moved near the Weekley YMCA and most recently, near the Foster YMCA. With Foster out of commission, a return to Tellepsen was necessary.
They are super well organized and convenient
The aquatics area and the 4th floor
I enjoy the Body Pump instructors.
It’s four levels and lot to do to stay in shape. I like free weights area the most.
The swimming pools and the gym in general are great. Good locker room facilities.
