Member Testimonials
There is a good variety of classes for people of all physical levels, and new classes have been added. The staff is helpful and the facility is super clean.
I love the group fitness classes. The instructors are amazing and knowledgeable. The community at the Y is like no other. And, working out in a group is encouraging and makes me work harder. I look forward to taking classes at the Y. I also love the Child Watch. Many of the same precious staff members have cared for all 5 of my children through the years and watched them grow up. They are excellent at what they do and my children look forward to going to the Y. I am so thankful for the Lake Houston YMCA. It has been a huge blessing to our family!
I like reserving a lane for swimming.
Many choices offered at various times of the day.
family focused, lots of options
The facility is not overcrowded during my workouts. I enjoy getting in cardio workouts using the variety of equipment they have available. I haven't had to wait to use a machine since I started going to the Lake Houston YMCA.
Like that there is a wide range of classes offered and that masks are no longer required in workout areas
no masks please
I like the ability to schedule activities at most times both live and interactive. The App makes it very easy to schedule an activity and to see what is available.
The variety of activities is great especially for someone starting out and trying to figure what to work and how often. the number offered makes it easy to pick and chose.
I like that you need to reserve a spot for cardio classes. Reduces over crowding in very popular classes such as Zumba or body pump
I think you are trying to fulfill our needs. Glad to see many others there going to classes and really having fun!! It seems like a family to me!
I like so many of the classes and instructors, it can be difficult to decide which class to go to. I get a great workout in most of the classes alongside 70 year olds that are also getting good, safe workouts. I enjoy Caryn, Carolyn, and Danielle's classes, also Gene and Ginger and Ellen. Elfi is best suited for the senior classes.
I wish that the classes were an hour long though. I would also like it to be cooler in the building with more fans. Especially in the gym for HIIT and in studio B and the cycle room. The back of the Y is always hotter and more humid.
I do my own thing. I workout 4-5 days a week bright and early in the morning (5 AM during the week and 6 AM on Saturday) (free weights and cardio machines). It's perfect for me and my schedule.
You offer programs for seniors that provide activity but protect against injury. These programs also help regain weakened abilities, such as balance.
I really enjoy the lap swim and shower after. The safety of the center so I come alone at any time.
I love the variety of classes offered and the knowledge of your instructors!
Staff is great and facility is well maintained.
Very family friendly! Always trying to accommodate people with classes.
At Lake Houston YMCA the administration, the staff, the instructors, and the trainers are all interested, understanding, smart, and friendly toward the members and their needs. It is not too difficult to say that we are all one big happy family!
From a senior perspective our normal or special needs are easily accommodated as they may be constantly changing. Those needs are always taken in stride as just part of the complete service provided. We know that senior staff is constantly making any necessary adjustment to programs and classes for our benefit.
Pool is awesome, workout area is in great shape.
The facility is always clean and machines are always in service. The staff is always friendly and always diligently sanitizing equipment and public areas.
Friendly,knowledgeable, follows COVID protocols, listens for the needs of the group
Increased hours, especially the functional studio, opportunities for personal training sessions, variety of programs
Since I am older, the water programs are important to me. I can exercise but not injure myself and my joints. Many people come and do what they can do, it doesn't matter. All of the instructors are wonderful people and interested in helping everyone. The staff at the Y is very friendly and greet you when you come in. They now have water programs 5 days a week. There are other programs that my friends attend and it is easy to spend 3 hours there.
My wife and I love the classes and that you are adding more times for classes and childcare. The facility is always clean and the stuff is always friendly and helpful.
Friendly staff and teachers. Clean pleasant facility.
Friendly, motivating staff, great equipment and physical space, clean facilities!
Multiple water zumba and exercise classes.
We’re so thankful for the miracle league and child care on Sunday’s! It’s more than a gym. It’s a family at my ymca. You’re changing lives. Thank you for everything you all do.
My family and I were going to Life Time until we visited your facility. We quickly discontinued our membership and joined YMCA.
Your staff are some of the nicest folks I have ever encountered. They are friendly and a joy. Like we are friends!
One complaint would be the benches in the locker room (mens). They are so small and I often have to put my bag on the ground while dressing. Maybe adding one to each row would help out. I hear this complaint from others as well.
Thank you for all you do for the community. I'm staying where I feel welcomed!
