Locations
Current pool reservations system is a mess and seems like pool sits empty more often than not and reservations are impossible to get.
Allow members to come in at 2:50 pm (instead of 3:00 pm) so that they have time to change for the lap pool.
It is mostly the classes at lunchtime for those of us that work downtown. there are great workouts and instructors available (pre-covid) for a hard, quick workout. I loved John's bodystep. Several people from my company would take his class. Also Danica's Shabam, and Amber's bodypump! I never thought I would do a bodypump class, but Amber inspired me to do weightlifting for women!! Also I loved Thomas's cycle class. He is the only instructor that makes me enjoy spinning. I think you have great instructors at Tellepsen, and I hope you can bring more of them back as covid eases.
I also like the track upstairs as an alternative to classes when you want something different, or just to walk and cool down after a class. It is a safe track to be on, and it is out of the sun which is good!

You guys have done a great job thru the COVID-19 situation. I feel safe doing my workouts.
Nice variety of classes. Spacious workout room. Easy parking
I can schedule a YMCA activity in advance and program my day around that activity
Very clean, excellent variety of programs and excellent teachers. Yvonne is such an aset to the program. I take both swimming and exercise classes from her. You need to clone her or give her a raise.
The class options are always nice.
Everything can you please make parking free for up to 3 hours. I feel kinda upset that I pay a 50 membership and also have to pay parking everytime because my time there is just over 2 hours everytime :/
I love all of the less mills classes I am ready for you to add more class times!
Love the pool- add more deep water exercise classes and you will get more older y members back at Tellepsen -You must realize this! You literally saved my life during covid and will always be loyal to YMCA HOUSTON!
I love that you have a pool and a full gym.
I am a huge fan of aqua yoga with Yvonne and would really like to see more aqua yoga classes offered.
I mainly swim and go to yoga classes and some water exercise classes
The Y Downtown is amazing! State of the art equipment, clean and spacious. Very cost effective with no need to go anywhere else.
I like the facility itself.
There are many without extra charge and often spaces are available
Good instructors and friendly staff. We have felt safe during COVID.

Always friendly and helpful staff.
