Family friendly
Best gym ever, very good family plans
Everything is so nice
The personal trainers (Kirie Martino in particular) and instructors at Monty Ballard Katy are fantastic! They take time to fine tune sessions to the needs/limits of their clients and always have very useful tips on how to modify any troublesome movements.
The front desk staff is always friendly and helpful. And the cleaning crew does a wonderful job! Really appreciate the clean public restroom/locker area.
Thank you to all Monty Ballard employees!

I like the group exercise classes because the instructors push me harder than I would push myself.
The classes are fantastic! I love Tai Chi, BodyJam and Belly Dance. Great teachers and fun workout!
The weight room. Variety of classes. Pools. Friendly staff. Clean facilities.
As a senior and with various health issues, I am doing more virtual classes at the Y. Recently started back to the facility after being forced to stay home (high risk) because of pandemic. I Enjoy the Virtual classes because not crowded and I can do exercises at my own speed without others judging me.
The volunteers, the program staff, the fun
POSITIVE, ENCOURAGING, *L*I*V*E* IN-PERSON INSTRUCTORS
CONVENIENT LOCATION
VERY EFFICIENT CLASSES
TIME THAT FITS MY FAMILY'S SCHEDULE
I have enjoyed the day trips pre-covid. I want these trips to return. I don't participate in any of the physical programs. I do my own thing.
My family enjoys the services available at the Y. My kids have participated in cheer, basketball, swimming and camp.
The classes and classes instructors
I love the variety of classes and the instructors
Monty Ballard is a wonderful place to work out. They have a variety of equipment snd various exercises to meet your goals. If you need to stay at home they even have online options. I wish they had more time options for the kids place however it may be due to COVID restrictions.
I'm a long-time member of the YMCA because of the friendly people and outstanding spin instructors.
The fact the YMCA was founded based on Christian principles is the biggest draw for me.
I am disappointed with the Monty Ballard YMCA's refusal to play Christian music in the weight/cardio rooms because some members don't appreciate Christian music. Can't understand why an organization founded on Christian principles would not support those principles.
I firmly believe in loving my neighbor, but I don't believe that requires me to sacrifice my beliefs because someone has different religious or lifestyle choices that are opposed to Christianity. God wants us to spread his message not suppress it!
Thanks for listening.
Wonderful family atmosphere, safe, clean, organized
Pilates. And Jennifer and Leslie
Aqua exercise class, Pilates class. Also meeting new people is fun too!
I have no complaints about the programs and activities, the instructors are amazing. The only complaint I have is the way we need to clean up the equipment now, we used to have green cloth towels to do so but now we are not provided with those, this is a big inconvenience because our only option is to use paper towels which do not clean as good and break easily, it is very difficult cleaning up the equipment with paper towels.
team sports and all age groups
It is open now.
Latest Excsersize equipments, indoor Swimming Pool and outdoor Swimming pool, Yoga and children’s activities etc etc
Lots of added programs and webcasts.
I love that there are plenty of classes available daily. It makes it easier to find a class that fits my schedule or try something new! I have tried Tone, CSI, and boot camp - all of which were new to me. I also love bodypump, and that’s available quite a bit on the schedule
