I am in Willard's class. He is the most gentle, consistent and skilled program leader that I need with my inconsistent schedule. I get there when I can and his gentle approach is not hard on my body and not hard on my soul. I also walk on the treadmill sometimes as well. The YMCA is very good and healthy for me right now where I am in my life's journey.
The best thing about the Y is the friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I like that there is a wide variety of people there.
I wish the weight room had more space for cardio machines.
I don't love the new steps in the classrooms, but they're OK. The other equipment (weights, bands, etc) is all fine.
Keep up the good work! You need to expand. The ladies locker room needs at least double the counter space.
Love my trainer, Mike

I love how convenient it is for me to just drop in and take a class and keep going. I love Kelli's Night Club Cardio class. My home Y is Tellepsen in which I visit daily to take body pump, TRX, CSI, combat and ncc. Overall it is a pleasant visit at your Foster location. Keep up the great work.
P.S. PLEASE BRING TABATA BACK :)
Andrew Hoffart is such an awesome trainer!!!!
Excellent line-up of programs for the entire family. Very supportive, no one is left out from the ages of 0 years to 99 years old!
I joined through the SilverSneakers invite that you all sent out this year 2019. My favorite program is the Shallow Water Exercise classes. I am very disappointed that the class will discontinue on September 2nd. I know this is an outdoor pool but in Houston the weather stays hot until October and I do not understand why our class cannot be extended. Otherwise I think the facility is clean and all staff are so friendly and helpful. I appreciate that I get a free membership through SilverSneakers which really helps my retirement budget. Since my favorite exercise is Shallow Water Exercise I will have to find another YMCA that has an indoor pool that have this class year round. I may come back next summer because the 34th Street location is just a mile from where I live and it is such a short drive. I am just now getting started with a consistent exercise program after having been inactive for 20 years. I may try the SilverSneakers classes that are offered once my strength is built up in more water aerobics classes at another YMCA.
The new updated equipment and facilities are amazing!
Variety of options, price and childcare
Offer an array of programs/classes. All appears fairly well organized and provide amicable
instructors.
The class I take (AOA) is wonderful, mainly due to John the instructor. Only complaint is that his class is not offered on Fri.
Other time is spent in gym with machines, 2/3 days a week.
Was very disappointed when water aerobics was moved to 11:30, interrupts entire day so had to pass on class. Hoping that next summer it can be offered at a more reasonable time.
Yoga and Kidwatch and Step classes. Outdoor Pool but more free swim time would be nice.
People friendly
Friendly staff, welcoming to all.
Gym is great and class hours and availability
The teachers are excellent. (Ralais, John and Eliot) They are well prepared and cognizant of the capabilities of class members; yet they encourage members to challenge themselves.
Good variety of classes and excellent equipment that’s well maintained
Classes
I've participated in a couple of group fitness classes and found them to be well organized, as well as flexible in scheduling, i.e. choices of morning and evening time slots.
