Member Testimonials
Love the socializing aspect. Great place to excersise. Lots of choices in classes.
I like the Senior Yoga Stretch classes at 11:00 A.M. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
I really think that Caroline and Sue are both excellent instructors. These are the Silver Sneakers Yoga Stretch Classes. I like the cardio recumbent bikes and machines in the main building. Everyone (especially all of the Staff at the YMCA) is very friendly and helpful at the Y. The building and the restrooms are very clean.
Swimming
Great gym. I don't use any part of the Y other than the weight room, so I can't speak to any other aspect of the facility. But the weight training area is first rate. I work out at the McWilliams Y, the Tellepsen Y (downtown Houston) and at 24 hour fitness, and the McWilliams Y is the best maintained, cleanest and best equipped gym of the three. It has a state-of-the-art free weight room, and some great machines that I have not seen anywhere else. If I lived closer, it would be the only gym I use. My only complaint is that it got rid of all the Espresso Bikes. I loved those bikes. It seems that all the Ys got rid of their Espresso's.
One last thing, earlier today, I took a survey for the McWilliams Y, but I mistakenly thought I was reviewing the Tellepsen Y. I gave a rating of "5," partly because I don't like the equipment at the Tellepsen Y as much as the equipment at the McWilliams Y, but due more to the fact that the members at Tellepsen don't know basic gym etiquette, and very little effort is made to educate them. For God's sake people, if you are on a machine and using your phone or resting, get up and let someone else use the machine. I haven't observed this lack of etiquett at McWilliams.
Went on a Sunday to use treadmill. First time there.
I’m happy you extended the child care options. there is also always something to be involved in, such as classes for the kids, workout classes, swim lessons etc
Very Welcoming. Machines are in great condition. Nice atmosphere.
Beautiful facility and well maintained. Love having indoor and outdoor swimming options. Shady parking area also great.
love all the seniorcise classes
I'm only going to water aerobics right now.
Just visit facility
I love the classes, friendly faces and awesome atmosphere!
Pickleball is GREAT and the people involved are wonderful.
The staff is friendly and helpful.
I also like the fact that I’m not surrounded by non-English speaking people. This is not intended to be racist...but honest. At 24-Hr Fitness, very FEW in the dressing room (during Water Aerobics time) are speaking my language. THAT makes me feel like a foreigner...in my own country! (You May not want to include this paragraph)
Senior yoga, active older adults bridge,
Complaint: start using 4" toilet paper instead of the smaller stuff.
You offer Pickleball on 3 courts 5 days/week for us retired folks. The place is clean and orderly. The employees are always friendly and helpful.
Love layout of the facility! I also am pleased with the amount of classes... especially yoga classes. Thank you
Like your pickleball program
I LOVE THE Variety. We need more room in the yoga classes. I would love to see more yoga classes. Some virtual would be great.
It is a nice Y, but you need more treadmills with TV's and you need to restart the hand towel program.
There is a lot of variety in ways to work out
Lots of choices.
