Seniors exercise classes, socials and meeting other people
Great place to work out and Great activities
Family, community feeling
Everything they offer !!!!
Love the sense of community, and the adaptability at my Y! We have a group who wanted to do an extra day of spin - they were like 'Do It!' This is your Y!! Dont see that many places these days!
Have different programs for Seniors. It's in my neighborhood, easy to get there to keep active
I really enjoy the low impact &balancing class as well as the yoga class from Monday through Thursday.
YMCA MD Anderson is listening to members. As a senior it is nice that yoga was changed to chair yoga for the am. Have asked for a senior basketball group time, but there has been no response. Noticed that there will be boxing for the children. Research has verified that boxing is great for older adults brain stimulation.
Thank you for reserving the precinct bus and scheduling adventures. What a nice way to enjoy, expand one’s knowledge and get to know the members in a relaxing adventure.
M D Anderson thank you for listening and responding.
I like that it is a very warming and considerate place to get all that is required in a place of becoming a better you. Always a place I can go to get a fresh start to all beginnings. Well received.
It’s a great place to meet senior exercise members; and have fellowship with them.
The balance-routines specifically teach seniors from unexpected falls
great programs keep me activities and in shape
I work out there at least five mornings a week. The staff is friendly and helpful and the morning regulars are all wonderful people. My only concerns (if you want to call them that) deal with the physical plant and equipment. I realize the building is almost seventy years old but upgrades on some cardio machines would be helpful. A stairmaster and an upright Precor cycle would be most welcome.
Again, my hats off to the morning staff -- Sylvia, Tom, and Steven -- for being such good folks.
I love this place, they have everything
the feeling of community that comes from the members and the staff. It feels like second nature to walk into MD Anderson Y. It's like the neighborhood cafe!
The Active Older Adults classes and activities are great 😊 Keeping us moving forward into retirement 💃🎶🩱🏋️♂️❤️
In this day and time a place where Christianity thrives is precious.
To know that our son, who is mentally and physically challenged, is in an environment that is safe is beyond measure.
The Y is an important aspect of his life. There he can mingle, meet and enjoy the company of other like minded people. And he can also offer his cheer, encouragement and commitment to Christ with others.
A special place to work out, participate in Bible study and share life.
Classes
I enjoy the exercise classes;
Chair Yoga,
Chair Exercise,
Cardio Dance.
Exercise classes are really great.
I go Monday thru Friday and really enjoy the instructors.
I LOVE the early morning staff. They are always on time to open the gym, friendly and they make showing up at the gym at 5 AM a great experience. I suggest a wireless router extension for the treadmill area, sometimes the wifi is very spotty.
Activities for the seniors.
Everything
Group exercises classes.
friendly people like the activities wish they had Zumba classes
Good senior classes. Would like to see more different classes such as line dancing, Tai chi & weightlifting for seniors. As you age, it’s more about balancing , strengthening, and flexibility.
We already have some good classes like yoga, balancing & cardio. But more different classes as suggested would be great too!!
I enjoy the friendly staff, the clean organized space and the classes that they offer.
The punctuality, coaches, staff
Excercise classes, social events for seniors, meeting other seniors, etc.
I like the people that are friendly, especially Steve & Sylvia.
I love the location, staff, and classes. Only issue, it’s a bit run down.
