Family friendly, community minded- most of what we are looking for in a family gym.
The large variety of group exercises offered. I also like how the instructors are so patient with new members.
I like instructors: Andrea (Mon 10:15 AM Silver Sneakers and Donna (Fri. 8 am yoga).
All the group exercise instructors are very professional, kind and friendly. I like the variety of classes however I wish some of them (Pilates, yoga,etc) would also be outside working hours. Overall I have a great experience at the Y.
Very consistent product. More than sufficient workout equipment.
Need improved showers and the shower area floor cleaned more frequently.
Usually just use the weight room and shoot baskets in the gym. I have more recently used the Hydro chair after work out. Love that. This year I’m going to look into some agility and Stretching classes
Varied activities and trips offered for older adults.
The sauna, hot tub, and pool availability are wonderful as an adult. The zero depth entry pool, hours open, and incredible swim lessons are an absolute gem for our kiddos!
I love the offerings the YMCA has to offer. My favorite offering is honestly the sauna but I would like to express some frustrations regarding it. Phone's should not be allowed in their for a variety of reasons but the biggest one is safety. I understand the chances of a phone overheating or earpods overheating are potentially low, but they still shouldn't be brought in there. With temperatures varying from 130 - 190 at times, that's not the place for a smart phone. It also goes against common sauna etiquette. A sauna emphasizes relaxation and privacy, it should be technology-free. I love music, don't get me wrong, but I don't want to hear other people's blasting through their headphones when I'm trying to absorb the benefits of a sauna.
Welcoming, caring, easy access. Excellent instructors, teachers and personnel.
I really enjoy the class offerings. Also the atmosphere and vibe of the Lakewood Y is wonderful.
yoga tai chi
Good clean. Place
I love yoga and the silver sneakers class is so upbeat and fun!
I like the pool, dance classes. Machines counting reps
I love our senior programs which are attracting a younger crowd too. Relaxing on the aqua lounger is what I look forward to after classes. Our book club has opened me up to a variety of new book authors.
The. People and the staff
Friendly staff and great facilities.
Love the gym and love pathways! the family membership with childcare enables us to go to the gym so much more than we would be otherwise!
Pickleball
Line dancing class
There is a great variety
I appreciate how nice and knowledgeable the staff are. Everytime I ask a question (which is often lol) they are always eager to help and follow through to make sure my issue is resolved. The facilities are always clean and the classes are super fun, especially having childcare built into the membership so I can workout for an hour or two without having to worry about my little one. I've already convinced several friends and family members to join me already and will continue to do so!
I love the Yoga classes. Wish there were more
I really like the Water Aerobics Class! The instructors are great and the class really works you out. I feel so good after class! I feel like I have had a great workout! I have not tried any other class yet, but I would like to.
Thank you for asking.
