Member Testimonials
The AOA classes.
I like everything!! The facility is clean and beautiful and so much going on at all times of the day. My only complaint is I wished they went back to opening the competition pool at 5:30am. The pool and hot tub are wonderful. People are very friendly. Nothing I don't like.
We have the best classes and instructors for are AOA classes! It makes me excited to go. Kathy does a great Juno for our seniors. She has great bus trips ! I feel lucky to be part of French Creek YMCA!
Love the facility, the sauna
I love all the exercise and gentle weight lifting classes. I am constantly learning something new from the instructors, I am able to apply what they teach me in my everyday life and share it with others that I know who do not go to classes. The instructors make the classes fun and make me feel good about myself. I attend French Creek in Avon. Doug, Amanda, Phyllis,Jan,Kathy and Jessica are the best of the best. I feel better physically and emotionally since joining and encourage others to do the same.
I like the wide range of group exercise classes especially for an older adult.
Having the ability to walk the track whenever we want even during this pandemic and the upcoming travel packages that we are looking forward to taking
The Silver Sneaker classes are the only thing that I can speak of as far as experiences.
This is a program that every senior should take advantage of. It is geared for all seniors and even if you have limitations they will show you different ways that accommodate you. Even if you need to be in a chair you can still do the exercises.
I have been going for nine years and have shown much improvement in balance and range of movement. I look forward to the classes. Something that isn’t normally mentioned is the compassionate instructors , the sense of community and the new friends that you meet.
I believe this is essential for a healthy mental and physical for seniors.
The teachers are excellent and your group tours organized and led by Kathy are delightful and well organized.
There are loads of wonderful classes as well as other activities, AOA day trips, too numerous to mentiotn.
Very clean, many types of exercise equipment. People are very friendly and helpful. Everything seems well organized.
We start our day at the YMCA with fun and friendly classes. Besides a good workout we look forward to seeing the many friends we have made.

I haven’t been in awhile but in the past did yoga 3-4 times a week. Disappointed to learn Wendy and Bridget are gone and that Michelle is on a medical leave. Hopefully bring in some great replacements. Although we haven’t been much lately, we love the Y and all of its offerings.
You have programs that include any age group that are fun, and your hours are flexible for those who work

Amanda is amazing!!’ She is so patient, envigorating, and pushes us in the Silver Sneakers Class. But yet so kind to everyone: shes human like everyone else, whereas Im sure there are days when she probably may just not feel up to it; but she never comes that way! She goes out of her way to get us energized.
