Member Testimonials
They have programs for all ages there is a lot of classes at different times of the day I do recommend this facility to any one looking for a gym for family type and they have a lot of swim lessons and classes for older citizens.
I like pickleball.
The instructors in the group classes are amazing. I have made good friends with most of them. This is not just a gym to go get my workout done, it's actually a place to have relationships with friends that have common goals for good health. I could workout anywhere, and the YMCA is my choice today.
The use of the exercise machines. However, some of the machines are in need of repair. The padding is cracked on several of the machines and they need to be replaced or repaired. The cracked padding allows the machine not be too sanitary.
I like pickle ball

Safe environment
Clean facility
Convenient
When things are family friendly, i love it. I do not want anything WOKE or impressionable on kids at the Y.
Activity friendships
Good variety. Good instructors. Many classes choices.
My husband and I come almost every day to use the treadmills. We are always greeted with a smile and a "good morning" as we head in to the gym which is always clean and well-maintained. We like that the treadmills were upgraded shortly after joining also.
I love the environment and familiy activities and exercise groups. But it needs programs or activities for special needs as well please.
The variety and number of classes, quality of instructors, facility.
New Star Trac treadmills are nice, but we need to have information on entertainment features. How are the various sockets used? What can be connected by Bluetooth?
Variety of classes!
Sweeming
Great options available - I just wish the same schedule as I see posted in the YMCA was what I could find online. I also haven’t been able to successfully register for a class yet, because the online registration system keeps telling me I don’t have an account, even though I’m logged into said account. BUT I’m excited to take some of the classes at some point soon, hopefully!
We enjoyed our time at the pool
There's room to sign up even if you don't plan ahead.
Lots of options and excellent instructors. But there’s one thing missing: bodypump on Fridays at 7:30am as you had before Covid. For better results, all instructors recommend doing bodypump three times a week, but not back to back. Please add a bodypump class on Fridays at 7:30am as before!
Large selections of time and activity. But would love to see cards and games for seniors for set days and times. We get lonely and need to make new friends.
I love the water aerobic classes. The instructors are always energetic and fun! Thank you!
Variety
I participate in the Silver Sneakers exercise class. I wish this class was held more days during the week.
The Monty Ballard YMCA has excellent facilities, is professionally run and has outstanding instructors in the many classes offered to its members!!!
We are really happy with all the programs and activities.
We feel welcome, the variety of activities the center offers, and the flexibility of time it is just perfec
You have something for everyone of all ages. It's always clean and the employees are helpful and friendly.
