Member Testimonials
I like the schedule and variety of exercise classes for seniors. Instructors are good and in tuned
Place has a great atmosphere for supporting physical activity.
Youth summer sports camp - Love the quality and variety of the big games. My son loved learning and explaining the rules of new games to us every day. Love the use of the private pool. I wish that could be daily or at least more days than 2 per week or some other ways to get out of the gym for more than just the 30 minutes at Edwards and pool 2 times per week. Any chance of a once-per-week field trip totally off-site? Don't want to increase the price much either to keep it accessible to the most families. It is great even if you make no changes.
I really enjoy the group classes at the Y, especially the spin class led by Laura and the body pump sessions. One suggestion is to ask instructors not to turn the lights off in the spin classroom. It makes you feel quite dark and cramped, which can be discouraging. Exercising should make you feel energized and alive, not like you're in a dark cave. Brightening up the space would make a big difference! Overall, the place is well-run, clean, well-equipped, and has great instructors. Worth every penny.
I love the pool and being able to swim. Love the sauna and hot tub as well. I attend yoga occasionally and really enjoy that class.
did not use programs or activities - great location and facility - Men's locker room can be a maintenance challenge due to poor ventilation but all else is great
Live rhe gym and pathways.
Hot Tub
Lots of variety in class offerings. Clean. Friendly
Great weight room and pool; very affordable. Friendly staff, clean facilities, well-maintained.
I enjoy all programs and the staff is very friendly. My granddaughter really enjoys swimming lessons.
The exercise classes are fun!
I love all of the instructors. Kristin, Louie, and Claire are my favorite! I love that with a membership, you can take classes and use the gym. The Y is a great, affordable place.
Great facilities good people and nicely organized activities.
I like that there's a pool and hot tub. Yesterday the hot tub was rather dirty looking.
I wish there were more available times for exercise classes.
Overall it's a decent place for a workout.
I like the equipment and it is always clean everywhere.
The pool deck needs to be mopped. The rope in the shallow section has mold on the floaters. Members should be encouraged to lock their lockers, and not just close it.
Excellent programs BUT when a class is canceled there is no communication. In fact little communication about any classes unless it comes from the instructor. Instructors are excellent.
I love the hot tub and the pool. I love that you give out sweets and snacks...I went to the flea market swap thing last year. I liked that. I wasn't able to go this year. I had a scheduling conflict. I had a meeting the same day and couldn't go to the flea market thing.
I also like the sauna. Good job.
Your staff is very helpful and courteous. I never have a problem doing the activities that I come there to do. All guests that I have come in contact with are very friendly.
The group Silver Sneakers programs are motivating and seem to help keep me in shape . I enjoy exercising with Andrea and Mo.
I've been attending adult swim lessons on Saturday mornings and the instructors and staff are always nice.
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!
Programs and activities are well supervised and all members are courteous.
