child watch and exercise classes
I like your people. Everything else is important, but secondary.
Instructors. Facility hours.
Programs and staff.
Mostly I just do the 9am water aerobics class. And sometimes use the hot tub after. I really enjoy having Maureen as an instructor and am glad the Y has kept the class all week with her schedule adjustment.
My only wish is that the pool water was slightly warmer and that air temps were also slightly warmer.
The variety of classes and that they are all times during the day.
The Lakewood YMCA is a great place. The friendly staff makes each person that comes to the YMCA feel important. They give great suggestions on how to improve one's physical and mental health, while connecting with others, in a positive social environment. Thank you Lakewood YMCA, for all that you do!
They are truly teaching my kiddo new skills she'll use as she continues to grow in her love of swimming
Exercise classes which are convenient
I have many health issues. I was nervous to sign up for anything. After talking to your employees and personal trainer. It changed my thinking. I needed to exercise for health issues. I was scared. Together we were able to work out a routine that was safe for me. Make improvements to my health and wellbeing. I will never be perfect. But I am physically and mentally in a better place because of joining. Right now I am still in low impact training on machines. But my doctors are excited for what I am doing to help myself. I have been told that even though it may not seem like much. It is rewarding my physical health. As a senior citizen. I was able to get the use of facility for free!! It is something I suggest to my family and friends. I am getting out of the house. Meeting new people doing the same things as me. I am very impressed by your staff of loving and caring people. They make it so easy for us all to enjoy working out.
Great schedule for the pool, able to swim laps except for a few periods when there are classes. Great activities to keep me in shape during the winter months for cycling season.
I like the variety of classes offered.

I love the group exercise classes.
I attend the senior workout on Mondays. I love it. The lady in charge is straight to the point and we get a lot down in the time allotted.
They have a huge array of weight lifting equipment and a robust schedule of programs and classes.
I bring my 10-year-old autistic grandson to go swimming and the staff is so good and nice to him and helpful always clean
Great weight room with knowledgeable help and great swimming pool.
Good pool, clean, sauna and hot tub! Lots of working hours! Nice people working there.
The Lakewood YMCA is my cup of coffe ....everyday! Staff is excellent.
The programs ate very thoughtfully planned out and the staff excited 😊 to give their best and they do. I want to say how GREATLY APPRECIATED it was yesterday for the pool water to be warmer than it has been PLEASE KEEP IT WARM THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO. YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
The small class size gives my daughter more attention from her instructor
Instructors are great and the workouts have variety.
I like the teachers, facilities, and length of the classes. My only critique is bringing back some Saturday classes, although I imagine that challenge is due to staffing.
Most of the equipment is in excellent condition. I hear the ladies working on in the work out rooms so they must be enjoying it.
All three of my kids are currently enrolled in swim lessons. Miss Rachel is wonderful with my three year old twins. The class is a great introduction to swimming and I like the combination of fun with learning.
My son is in the 6-12 class and I like all of the strike work they do in the lap lanes, diving instruction, and playing with the hoola hoop at the end. Again, a great way to mix skills development with fun.
We love Mrs D!
Ms Dee is great and the zero entry pool is great for kids!
I like Andrea's silver sneakers class.I just wish she had it two days a week,,Also the chair yoga...
I've been attending adult swim lessons on Saturday mornings and the instructors and staff are always nice.
