Member Testimonials
Very good programs for seniors. Also like the pool in the summer.
Great facilities, great staff
I mostly use the weights and cardio equipment. I do like that there is education available to teens about weight lifting. My teens definitely benefited from that program.
As a new member, and out of shape 65 year old, I very much enjoy the Forever Well classes. I see much improvement in my strength, flexibility and balance since I started attendance 2 months ago and I tell all my same age friends! I also find most of the instructors very professional and informed to help us older folks get and maintain our physicality.
One wish on my part - I love Melissa's Line Dance class! It is mostly held at Branch Crossing but its day and time always conflict with Forever Well classes at Shadowbend. If it could be scheduled to not conflict with Forever Well classes, I would love it!!
Great facilities and layout,
I believe in the mission of the YMCA.
Excellent staff, selection of classes, and instructors. There is a warm, friendly community of members as well.
Lots of choices. Clean, well equipped facility. Helpful staff.
The main attraction for my wife and I is the pickle ball open play sessions. We like that the nets are set up and ready to go at the stated start time.
Great stuff
like the intructors
The instructors are very friendly and the classes are not very full.
We take our special needs son to the Pool ECERY weekend and we feel the lifeguards should be more attentive and more considerate of my sons needs .
The water is therapeutic for him but sadly we feel unwelcome by some lifeguards there !
Location and price is why we use the Shadowbend Y. We use the weight room. Wish it was bigger and updated.
I do not participate any longer, do not live in the area but was member for over 20 years when I lived there. Visited recently and was completely thrilled. Your facility is Excellent. Better than the downtown Houston branch that I go to now. Thank you.
I was in a bad car accident years ago and using the pool to workout in has been wonderful.
Personal training with Peggy T. The machines in the gym. The helpfulness other employees.
The staff seems very friendly. I have asked for assistance more than once. Doesn't matter who it is, they are always ready to give me assistance on how to adjust a machine.
I love personal training with Kim Cox. I have my granddaughter enrolled in your 3-5 years old group swim session. The number of students allowed per class is far too many for a 30 minute session. Either the sessions should be longer or there should be fewer children in each class.
Great
Love the Combo & Balance classes
A variety of classes with great instructors. I also like the extra things for seniors.
The facilities are nice. The staff is super. One question, why is there an exhaust fan in the sauna. I have been in saunas all over the us, asia, Europe, Canada, South America and this is the place I have seen one. It prevents the sauna from reaching temperate and it must drive up the electricity bill

I like the variety & that classes are offered in the morning and late afternoon so I can have schedule changes and still catch a class.
Many machines for exercises. Many classes, especially for older people.
Good variety of classes. Like the 9:30 am slots a lot. Great instructors. Friendly staff.
