Member Testimonials
Gene is the heart of Lake Houston YMCA. His classes are amazing and provide a great workout. He takes the time to get to know the members and build a personal relationship with each of them. I recently started personal training with him and it has been a phenomenal experience.
I love the classes and the instructors at the Y. There are so many class options and the instructors make working out so much fun!!
Need to offer more Silver Sneaker classes and water exercise classes during early evening hours. There used to be a water exercise class in the evening that was very well attended but now the only offerings are in the morning. Thanks.
Great instructors and good variety of classes!
Very pleased with the large variety of activities offered for all ages. Staff are always helpful and friendly.
Variety
The clean pool area and locker rooms
Everything.
I love everything about the YMCA. A place to chill and exercise. Relax anytime at affordable price. Reliable YMCA l call it.
The fact that you allow several times of the day to give many of a chance to make it to a class. I am a Zumba person simply because it is the easier for me, at 83 one is a bit limited. I don’t feel limber to do the chair exercise and Pilate bores me!!! But I have the options to change if I so wish. Your staff are so obligingly ready to assist!!!
Friendly , programs for seniors!
I like the variety of exercise classes for seniors. The instructors are fabulous!
I wish there was water exercise in the evening a couple times a week.
You have excellent instructors for all your group exercise programs. Ginger Swallow who sets up various activities and outings. You have programs for all ages. Your seating area with comfortable chairs and free coffee which encourages groups of people to gather.
Most of all I am thankful how they handled COVID. They opened in June 2020 and began their exercise programs very responsibly. You thankfully did not need to wear a mask while exercising.
They did a wonderful thing for the children since they we're not required to wear masks.
This YMCA was the Gold Standard during COVID. I am so thankful that we have this wonderful YMCA in our community.
We love the facility! We're new to Kingwood, but have been Y members for over a decade. Just a few suggestions...
1. Maybe sell snacks and bottled drinks. Other Y's do this and it's awesome.
2. Cool the pool down to 78. It's hard to swim when it's in the high 80s/low 90s.
3. Can the upstairs cardio machines face the 3 TV's?
Your staff is incredible and it's a very modern and clean facility!
I like the water exercise classes.
Broad range of classes, friendly instructors and lots of times to choose from.
I actually really love the location the people the staff and the equipment for weight training, great basketball courts. Honestly checks off everything I need from a gym tbh. And the latina shorty that works front desk is hella cool.
Everything
Great senior citizen classes, but getting too crowded!
I love love all the swimming water exercise classes and the all the instructors
your classes and yellowship going places
The people you employ are your greatest asset. Even interaction I've had has been positive. The facility is always clean and organized. I appreciate the attention to detail in cleaning used weight benches and equipment.
Like the upstairs weight lifting machine room and the exercise bikes.
Would like to try Pickle ball sometime but I am not sure how to get involved.
Silver Sneakers
Very much enjoy the Silver Sneakers and Forever Well classes I am able to attend. The instructors are very helpful and fun!!
Also have enjoyed the few activities I attended organized by Ginger, who is always so welcoming when I see her.
Everything about the LHFYMCA is outstanding, including the members. The building, the facility, and the equipment are top of the line. The atmosphere is quiet, respectful, and dignified. Not like other similar type facilities. I think it has to do with the Judeo-Christian principles the Y is founded on. It's a great place for families and kids.
I would only ask that the staff consider hanging a heavy bag in the functional training room for those of us who would like to hit the heavy bag. Otherwise, I have no recommendations other than keep doing what you are doing. It's great! Thank you!
Hours, flexibility and variety of classes and very helpful & nice employees
Yoga
