Member Testimonials
The Shadowbend ymca is very well balanced in programs for all ages.
My suggestion is only for the woman’s shower room- there needs to be hooks on each side of all the showers to hang our bags and towels when we shower- there are not enough. The extra stools are very much appreciated.
Very open and friendly, easy to join in
Variety of programsđź‘Ťđź‘Ť
Variety of classes and they have an indoor pool.
Body balance
The ability to access a nice swimming pool and the clean bright and updated facility
Excellent quality of the group fitness instructors- friendliness of the staff…
The staff…the trainers.. the location. The cleanliness of the facility.
Love the facility, the staff and the other members who I regularly see at the Y - they've become friends.
Appreciate the upgrade of equipment in the cardio and weight room (EGym is fantastic).
Given how exciting sports are, would really like to see a flat screen tv returned to the weight room with cable so we can follow it live while we're working out.
Thanks for everything!
REALLY like the low impact cardio and water aerobics classes. Would like to see the "power hour" classes (Debbie's class in Sept) again!!!
The pool and aqua fit is what I was looking for along with good instructors and that’s just what I found
Swimming pool. Hot tub weight room. Would do more if I had time.
The Instructors.
Quality of competent instructors.
Update even and equipment.
Repairs and upgrading of facility.

Coaches
Lots of variety in the exercise classes. I really like the EGYM. Great idea.
Organized and friendly people.
Love the Balance, Silver Sneakers, & Combo classes’
The pool. Would like to use weight equipment but not familiar enough with how to use it.
Flexibility
I use the gym equipment and they keep everything clean and working condition. Personal are helpful if needed.
Convenience, low stress.
I’m a constant wellness center user and sometimes I play pickleball.
People is always nice and good vibe.
I will only suggest to complement the wellness center with a hiptrust machine and a regular shoulder press machine.
As well if you could add some mirrors to the blue room at front of helpdesk it will be truly appreciated.
Thanks you
I love the card games for the friendships built and time spent away from home. Being with people for a couple of hours. It gives us 84 yr.olds something to do besides sitting home alone.
Also, love water aerobics. Wish we had 6 days a week. We also need deed water. We have lost some deep water ladies because they cannot do shallow. The instructors are all shallow water except Andrea. But I go to all the classes offered and do my thing and do what can in deep water.
Cannot do weights in the gym, but can do them in water. In fact it gives me some muscles that I did not know I had.
I would like some travel excursions to interesting places by bus that older people can go to that have walkers or canes. I went with a church to the PAINTED CHURCHES, and had lunch out, and it was very interesting. The churches are painted inside to look like wood, marble, etc. Very beautiful churches. I think the ladies would enjoy.
I also like the LUNCH BUNCH, where we get to see each other in clothes and makeup. Go to different restaurants and it is a lot of fun and fellowship.
