Member Testimonials
So many different actives to choose from and the instructors are super nice and friendly.
It is a very friendly atmosphere
I don’t use any of the activities, I’m going to start looking into them. I only use the gym area.
I like the AOA classes.
The programs are well organized by the Staff assigned to the task. They make sure all the guests are comfortable during the entire event.
Enjoy exercise class
The YMCA is a clean comfortable facility with great ordinary people working hard to help you reach your goals. I am happy to be a member.
I love Melanie's full body toner Tuesday 9:00 am class and Jay's Mix Wednesday 9:00 am class. Before Covid, cycling was offered after both of these classes. Jay taught one of the cycling classes. Both cycling classes were packed. Sometimes people saved bikes for others. Sometimes these cycling classes were so full that people had to be turned away. If you could reinstate cycling before or after these two classes of weights and core exercises, a valuable aerobics class would draw people, especially people who should not do jumping jacks, running, and other pounding exercises because of knee problems.
Many senior adult classes.
Great bus trips to interesting places
Modern fitness equipment
I like the Silver Sneakers activity as it is on the same time daily. Trips are also available for seniors. People are friendly and helpful!
The instructors and the senior silver sneakers classes.
Instructors are very good. They are fun and work well to feel stronger and more energized.
I like the wide variety of exercises offered. I enjoy the water aerobics and Silver Sneakers classes every week. The staff is friendly and the facility is clean. I like the AOA programs and I plan to join a bus trip soon.
Senior programs
I love,LOVE, the pool excerise classes.
It has all the workout equipment that I like plus a few classes. Having child watch has been amazing too. If it weren’t for that I’d never get time to exercise.
It’s a nice facility. However, you do not have enough group fitness classes
I mainly go for the water aerobic classes. The teacher and lifeguards are great. Thanks Melanie and Joy. And thanks Amy, who is the only lifeguard I know by name, but all watch for us.
Friendly place and I especially like the classes offered at the pool. I just found out about day trips being offered and have signed up for two. Can't wait to get out and about!
Sue & Melanie do an exceptional job. Clear instructions-always watching the class-and they make it fun

Please offer more water aerobic classes . obviously baby boomers and arthritis patients need aerobic activity but gave knee or hip or balance issues.
Please consider a class afternoon s like 1 or 2 pm for usual 50 minutes.

My thing is Swimming and taking water aerobic classes! I just wish we had more but I'll take what we have. My pool family took me in and under their wings! I'm very happy to be living in Ohio.

The Geauga County YMCA in Chardon has a great variety of programs for all ages and fitness levels. The instructors are wonderful - very kind, helpful, and make exercising very enjoyable. I really can't say enough great things about this YMCA !
The Y is local, it is a Christian entity, the classes are planned for all ages and abilities (yes, we are Silver Sneakers now!), and the employees are happy to see us and helpful!
