Member Testimonials
You have many activities to choose from
I always enjoy the classes I've attended. Great instructors and well rounded workouts. Wonderful members/friends at this location! I'm so thankful that Foster has finally brought back BodyBalance! 8am isn't my favorite but I'll stay with it (and drop Stretch and Restore. Before Covid, BodyFlow was on days which alternated with BodyPump. I'd like that type of alternating schedule to return, if possible.

Love the senior cardio workout with John. He makes exercise fun and entertaining so you don’t feel like you are working out.
Has a good variety of activities for young and old.

YMCA is a great place to meet people just like you. They have program's for young and old, we do silver sneakers 3 days a week,
Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Very clean. Focuses on the local community. Great place.
Variety for Seniors
Professional instructors who genuinely like to teach.
I like the personal trainer option, and most of the classes offered.
I am thrilled that Body Balance has returned to the Foster YMCA, however the scheduling is not great for me. I understand finding times and instructors is challenging, but I truly wish it was not only offered on the same days as the Body Pump classes. I love both Body Pump and Body Balance and would like to do both, but I am too old to do them both on the same day. In a perfect world for me, one would be on Monday/Wednesday mornings and the other on Tuesday/Thursday mornings. Please keep my feedback in mind going forward. Thank you.
Fun league!
The instructors who run the classes, the people who take care of the place
There is something for all of us and feels welcoming and safe
I love all the yoga you have at many different levels. I would however like to see more classes on the weekends as that's when I have more time to exercise and there are fewer classes then. Thank you,
Pat
Sense of community, the time committment necessary, well organized, nice facility, easy parking
Friendly place.
I would to see we start a book club. Such as Faith Club.
If interested we can talk about it after the holidays.
Love the fun focused skill building goals. I appreciate that competition is not the most important part of the team. Harriet foster YMCA is great.
Everyone participates
That there are a variety of teachers for each category, so that it’s a different learning experience.
We have done Basketball and Archery. We love both activities. They are well organized with a focus on teaching the kids the fundamentals.
I love the Nora and Shan’s stretch classes m. Zumba with Diana on Saturday's are so much fun. She brings all the joy! I also feel great after John Daltons low impact cardio. I’m still exploring new classes little by little. I’ll report back.
I like that people respect the space, leave you alone to do your workout, but offer help when needed.
