Member Testimonials
The programs I interested in are during the day. There is a wide variety for different exercise levels
Everything from the passionate instructors to the sense of community. The West Park YMCA has been a great fit into my lifestyle. Looking forward to growing more and developing.
You have very good staff and I like the times available for classes in the open gym
I believe the classes help my physical fitness. The teachers know how to push, but not to hurt.
I like Active Older Adults.
A good though small selection of fitness machines ( ellipticals, treadmills, weight machines) and excellent staff
Great people. Smaller facility. Lots of programs for all ages!
The pool. An early morning Pilates, yoga, or tai chi would be nice.
Westpark/Fairview YMCA is easy to find and easy to use
hours are good.
YMCA has everything you need to stay fit and healthy.
Your pool for lap swimming
The instructors are enthusiastic about teaching and make the classes worth attending.
Extended pool hours fit my schedule
Open swim hours have been expanded to allow working adults the opportunity to swim-no appointment to reserve a lane is needed like at the Lakewood Y. The members and staff are genuine - friendly, welcoming to everyone and anyone. I always feel good when I leave simply because people are caring, respectful of others in sharing despite a poor workout. I endure enough negativity and pessimism at work.
I swim, so the pool is what is important to me.
Thank you
Many options and a consistent schedule.
Pre-scheduled, with happy trainers and reception.
I like it all, and your staff is always friendly.
You thought of the family this past week and it is awesome.
Availability
We are members at the Lkwd Y. When our pool is closed we go to West Park. The greeters are always welcoming and the guards do a good job. The Y is clean.
Enjoy the pool and the staff is great.
Swimming
I like all the staff members. They are friendly and project a welcoming attitude.
I like all of the instructors. Without exception, they are professional, serious and dedicated. They attend to the classes at various times (some very early in the morning). I find them all very well prepared, effective and eager and willing to assist members in achieving their fitness goals. I am familiar with Jessica (Body Pump), Jessica (Pilates and Tabata), Adria (Strength), Andrea (Strength), Alex (Tabata, Pilates, Kick Box), Kim W and Kim R (Yoga), Sarah (Yoga), Mary (Step), Shelly and Delinda (Step Combo). I hope to take some classes from all of the other instructors--Cassie and Rinette and others - as well. I hope not to have overlooked anyone. Their positive and professional attitude and diligence reflects well on themselves but also on the YMCA.
I also like the membership. I enjoy being with fellow members.
With respect to the West Park YMCA facility itself; it is an old and functionally obsolete building with expensive maintenance needs. Despite that I think the staff and leadership do very fine job with maintenance and upkeep. Nothing is perfect, but the team is obviously trying and doing the best they can with the resources available. It is appreciated and acknowledged.
I love the older active adult program

Exercises, yoga Classic
The swimming instruction is wonderful! The teacher works well with children and teaches useful skills!
Yoga
Beginning and ending as scheduled. 7 AM pool is frequently 5-10 minutes late. Just saying.
