Member Testimonials
like the quality of the instruction and caring atmosphere. In particular, i like the emphasis that Lisa Serice (sp?) puts on healthy safe exercise in her ballet classes.
I especially like the strength machines that are set up automatically to my personal needs. I like that it is welcoming to all ages. I like the range available- the classes, machines, pool... I like that it is a comfortable neighborhood type atmosphere.
Silver Sneakers and Forever Well
I mainly use the exercise machines and love coming in to workout. The facility is extremely clean, the staff is friendly and a/c is great on hot days. I would highly recommend the Shadowbend YMCA to others. Thanks for a great experience.
The training, the different workout classes, the new machines.
I would love to see Debbie do more classes rather than Olga. I attend the Y 5 days a week so I don’t know if that counts for anything. I do not attend Olga’s classes but attend Diane’ balance class, Lian’s tai chi and yoga classes , Lori’s classes.
The Forever well classes and the friendly staff
Also the way it works with community
Staff spent lots of time helping me get set up with a new membership, then helping me with the egym. Really appreciate that! Egym is great!
I like new machines and pool.
Water aerobics
Friendly people
The swimming pool.

I have used the pool for 20 years
I love the variety of classes that I can take. I have connected with 1 instructor, Debbie P and take 4 classes from her
New equipment and plenty of activities to choose from.
I am new to the Y. I joined to use the pool for laps and swim every day.
It’s close to home, pool is great, access is easy and staff is welcoming and helpful.
I like the pool I enjoy the exercise the only thing that I find very very nasty is the spa it's never cleaned it has more mildew on scum it's disgusting if you go in it guaranteed to catch something. Staff are amazing except for tje young lifeguards who wanna where their swimsuits with all their bootie out but they do have excellent personalities.
Group exercises and Lunch & Learn
variety of activities, friendliness and helpfulness of employees, friendliness of members,
I like all of them. But need more pickleball availability in the gym. Also, need to have signs or instructions telling folks who use the eGym that if it is crowded, they should only do one set at a time and move to the next piece of equipment. Many people seem to think they can do three or more sets in a row.
I'm at the pool everyday for about 2 1/2 hours . I love the water aerobic classes with. Debbie and Andrea. The new instructor, Allison , I believe will be good. I'm in a group that plays cards on Game. Day. We have st much fun. I usually come to Bingo Bash. I try to participate in the programs Linda Edwards has. She is wonderful. I have met so many wonderful people through the YMCA.
I love it Bare dance a lot . Is want of my favorite classes at this time. I also recommend our low cardio class with Debbie. Many of my friends love this class a lot. Only my friends suggested that we doesn't have classes like Stretch and Recovery at Shadowbend locations.
The teacher are excellent and I enjoy the new equipment for exercising.
lOVE sHADOWBEND. oNLY ONE COMPLAINT. sHOWERS NEAR THE POOL AREA OFFICE, THERE IS ONLY 3. tHE SHOWER HEADS NEED TO BE CHANGED OUT TO PERMENANT HEADS. FIND THEM TWISTED, HANGING BECAUSE THE HO0K IS BROKEN. NEED HEADS LIKE AT BRANCH CROSSING. PLUS THEY SQUIRT EVERYWHERE. WOULD COST $100 DOLLARS TO GET 3 HEAD AND MAKE THEM TO WHERE THEY ARE NOT HAND-HELD AND ABUSED. PERMENANT HEADS. SO MUCH EASIER ON THE MAINTENANCE MAN TO.
Earlier classes for seniors.
EGym Pickle-ball Hot Tub, Showers, Sauna and I like the fact that more than most YMCAs the ones here in The Woodlands are not afraid to be CHRISTIAN
Keep on keeping th C in YMCA
the group classes are my favorite. Also husband uses the treadmill and other machines. A plus is that all the people are great.
I have social interaction when entering which helps brighten my day. I love the Monday balance class. There are many wonderful classes for Seniors & I appreciate that.
Cleanliness is a high priority here which I love.
I am just opening up to trying more wellness classes (yoga for eg.)
The locations of people need equipment.

Great instructors! A real community atmosphere.
