Pilates Reformer
The facility, the equipment, the pool and the staff.
Lots of choices for classes! Alister’s cardio class is outstanding! She’s always having us move— never in one place all the time.
My wife and I take reformer pilates two to three times a week. Great instructors and very good rents from the classes. The equipment is old and needs to be replaced. I did not understand how the Y could justify replacing all equipment for a free spinner class and not replace reformer equipment that requires payment.
Diversity.
Lap pool!!
Spin classes
Weight/aerobic room
Everything
I appreciate that Shadowbend Y cooperates with Silver Sneakers and makes it easy for me to participate in the senior activities offered by the "Y." My primary interest is in Deep Water Aerobics and I am thrilled with the 8:30 am group on M,W,F with Andrea. My doctors are happy, as well, because they assure me that I am a much healthier person because of the "Y." Thank you!
You have such variety of classes, most of the instructors are very kind, and there is a welcoming environment.
Cardio machines, especially elliptical and also Precor Lateral. Free weights and some work out machines. The stretching area, although it needs to be bigger. The pool and water aerobics for my mother and lap swimming for my husband are other things I like. Womens locker room is sufficient plenty of lockers, bathroom stalls, and showers however the hot tub leaves a lot to be desired. The hot tub cleanliness is a basic that needs attention every time I've considered using it. I love my in total 15 year membership and recommend the Y to others always.
Staff/ pool staff is very accommodating on any issues
Body pumps classes are very well run Denise/ Brook / Andrea

The classes
I love Allister’s and Erica’s classes at 8:30. I can use the cardio and weight room whenever I want more or can’t make the class.
Everyone is so very nice and considerate
Dee's water aerobics classes on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are excellent. My wife and I have enjoyed her classes for over 7 years. She is very friendly and always provides us an opportunity for a great workout in the water.

Variety of classes
We've used the pool and weight room and enjoyed how nice the staff is. We really are waiting for the new ymca to be built in The Falls. We live over there and have been waiting years. It is kind of a long drive just to work out at Shadow Bend but has some nice machines and the kids enjoy the indoor pool.
Very challenging
The facility is always kept exceptionally clean. The Y staff is always friendly, caring and courteous.
There is a very wide variety of fitness opportunities open to all ages. The staff is friendly, and the facilities are well maintained.
Like the instructors and classes.
Right now I am working with a trainer- great!
Silver Sneakers

I like the facility has older members.
Melissa Shake is wonderful with her line dancing and AOA.
