Some great classes and instructors, supportive and encouraging environment
There is great variety and good hours
I enjoy the swim programs
Our recent experience with the swimming classes was great. Grandson is shy and did not want to swim. This was first time on his own and was scared, Miss Mackenzie very patient and encouraged hm every class and finally by the third week was first sitting on the wall waiting for her. Great experience!
The basketball programs that Ryan does a fabulous job running
Variety of programs with enthusiastic instructors. Silver Sneakers programs have been great workouts. I had been going to Jazzercise for years and decided to make the switch. No regrets so far!
Flexibility and that there are so many different things. Pool, classes, gym.
I’m participating in the LiveStrong program currently. It’s an awesome program for cancer survivors. The YMCA on Basslake Road in Chardon is a wonderful facility. Many options for some form of physical fitness. The instructors are very personable and make fitness fun. Thanks! Sandy
GOOD EQUIPMENT, CLEAN FACILITIES, FRIENDLY STAFF, NEW PARKING LOT.
GOOD, CLEAN FAMILY ATMOSPHERE.
I love your AOA exercise classes. I take senior strength and balance, silver sneaker cardio,classic and yoga. I also take basic tai chi. I find the instructors enjoyable and very helpful.
Our AOA coordinator Diane Gorom does a fantastic job of organizing everything.
I know the arthritis swim class really helps my joints. I also enjoy the Tai Chi class. It helps with my balance and is recommended by my doctor. I am surprised the Y does not advertise the Tai Chi class more. I know many doctors recommended it.
I love the swimming with Joy.
I love the sports for the kids but more space is definitely a must, it's always so crowded with the voluumes they have there they could use a bigger pool and am extra gymnasium just for smaller kids.
The Gauge Family YMCA is local, has decent hours, friendly employees, knowledgeable employees and great programs!
The staff and hours are wonderful. The equipment is newer and well maintained.
Pool activities
I just use the pool and I like the facility
I love the vararity of yoga classes and sliver sneakers classes , very thankful for them and the health coverage plans that help cover the entire them. The water excerise programs are so helpful and engenizing. I took adult beginer swim classes and the instructor (Kevin) was Excelent . Would love to continue the class, however it will now only be offered for an attendance of 3 or more. Would love for the Y to promote this class so that more adults would be aware of it and the importance of this type of excerise. It seem there are only two people interested ( my friend and me) Working out in the gym is another of my favorites, however on Sunday's there is not always a trainer or assistant at the desk for help or assistance.
So many youth and senior programs offered. Excellent for our community and its health and social status.
There is a wide variety of activities and generous time slots for a few of them
Great place to exercise and many activities for any age. Enjoy water aerobic classes in the evening and Saturday!
Pickle ball the pool exercise class and various speakers that come to the center for mental improvement and curiosity.

The pool, hot tub and sauna being centrally located is the best
