Member Testimonials
The Tellepsen YMCA is a top notch facility. I have been a member for 5-6 years.
Facility is very clean and offers the best and most recent machines and equipment. Staff members are extremely kind and helpful. Group classes are also very fun and taught by the best and most knowledgable instructors.
I enjoy the rigor of the activities. The group exercise classes are tailored for abilities and the instructors are always excited and passionate when teaching.
Love the classes!! I don’t like training by myself so that’s why I attend the classes at YMCA and they are the best! Love bodypump, CSI, Bodystep, etc. all of them are incredible
I love all of the aqua workouts.
lot of activities for seniors
Child care, variety of equipment
I, along with over 100 members of the Tellespen YMCA enjoy the frequency of volleyball that the YMCA offers. I play VB four days a week (three work days at lunch and Saturdays). After a couple of hours of VB I go upstairs to the weigh area and work out on a combination of the machines and cables. I average around 12 hours a week at the Y.
The staff is always great and helpful. The facility is always clean and well maintained.
While I am only 67, I do plan on slowing down my work a little more and getting in a workout at the Y on those three days that I now take off (maybe swimming).
All the best

Everyone is pleasant staff and members
The YMCA offers a variety of exercise classes and the staff is very helpful...
Group classes at a lot of various times
Love the senior activities and silver sneakers.
Friendly staff. Clean facilities. All the workout options you can ask for.
I like the variety. It seems like I have endless opportunities on different ways to get my workout in
Excellent programs and activities for seniors! Also excellent and well-trained staff!
There is a good variety of different programs. I think the work out area is very good.
I like the racquetball courts. Haven't tried them yet, but I will! And you have a location downtown that I can get to at lunch from work and also a location by my house for the weekends. I like that. Also, it seems more like a "community" than other gyms I've belonged to.
I recently (within the past 3 years) moved to the vast and immense city of Houston. Coming from a small agricultural town up north it was difficult to assimilate to the hectic life style that is in Houston. It was difficult moving to the city and trying to feel like at “home”. YMCA has been not only a great place to go to the gym, but a great place to feel like home. The amenities are phenomenal with different classes to participate in or basketball courts to de-stress and hoop around. The atmosphere is welcoming and you can feel the energy to workout and accomplish an objective here. The location is convenient and the pricing for everything is GREAT! I would, i have, and I will continue to recommend this gym to others who may want a little bit of everything that YMCA has to offer. And let’s not forget about how incredibly helpful ALL the staff (with the exception of one person) is at this location. This gym is truly home. Thank you for all of the help and support I’ve received in my journey here at YMCA! -GGFF
The steam and dry heat area.
Quality facilities
Silver sneakers and machines are excellent
The YOGA classes with Tiffany. She is such a great teacher and very personable. Such a good addition to your YMCA staff.
I like the diverse classes that are offered.
Great facilities, very clean and ergonomically perfect and pleasing. Wonderfully gifted personal trainers
I love the matrix equipment and the classes
Very clean, spacious; all machines in good condition; many many exercise classes to choose from; parking garage gives up to 2hrs free and low rate after that; pool and hot tub and single-gender saunas are a luxury, well worth the monthly fee.
Wish there were adult swim clinics occasionally. Wish there were adult mixers, maybe focused on town hall suggestions to improve services or facility, or to vote for ideas under consideration, or to vote support for certain services/ machines/ resources.
Honestly I love that there is a track. The staff isn’t the greatest but I’m in love that I can get a indoor run in.
Clean, working equipment, nice people
I find the facilities cleaner than other gyms.

I only use your swimming pool. I like being able to have access to a lane when I come in the morning.
