Amazing Zumba class at 830 Monday and Thursday.

Love how they try to keep updated with equipment and programs. I did the Aqua Strong program last week with Tyler and had so much fun! Staff is always so friendly and the facility always looks so nice and clean.
I like the updated equipment in the free weight area and the sauna and steam room in the men’s locker room. I don’t participate in any of the many-offered programs but enjoy watching pickle ball while working out. Everyone is courteous and welcoming.
I like the Silver Sneakers Classes, Chair Yoga, and Arthritis Class with Stella at French Creek. I use the machines and the track also. I enjoy the fellowship. I also go on some of the bus trips.
Can usually get through my workout smoothly, not have to wait too long for machines or weights.
I attend classes 4 times/weekly with Rosie and Tyler and enjoy every class that works with cardio, weights and tension with bands.
I like the improvements! I think you could use help in social media outreach to get more patrons' etc. There are a bunch of community groups I could help you with your marketing and get more spread for membership. The only folks that I talk to state that they didnt know about the improvements on these groups. My wife tried the new class with Tyler and was the only one to show up'
A time to meet new people and have a good time.
Love I can always use equipment. Quiet and clean
Great instructors, Rosie and Erin are a great team of instructors. They care a lot about everyone in the gym.
clean good silver sneakers program
The staff is very friendly and helpful. I am kinda new and like the activities I've attended so far. Aqua Fit, Fitness after 50, Chair Yoga and working out in the equipment room. It's everything I need.
The improvements to the weight room. The front desk staff, Dawn, Jackie, & Mike are always helpful & cheerful. I look forward to seeing them every time I go to West Shore.
Swimming laps when possible is my number one choice. Also tai chi, chair yoga are favorites. There are other places where I could go to but I love the old fashion setting of the West Shore YMCA. I love the staff who are all so friendly and helpful.
The people at the front desk are ver nice and accommodating.
Very good. A little off topic but, there is a strange young guy, tall, skinny just hangs out in locker room and does not swim or workout. Keep an eye on him. Last time there he was in parking lot as I was walking in and met someone in parking lot and never came in.

People are so friendly
Love the pool
Great instructors welcoming facility

The programs are awesome. They provide physical fun and entertainment for whole families. Perhaps there is no time to sit around the table for a meal but there is time to get in a game of pickleball or basketball etc. They make the kids so tired they don't want to start "gaming" when they get home. The programs provide an opportunity for families to become individuals who compete with each other and teach them lessons about being honest and fair with each other.
However, well, I like the programs and activities but how can the Y insure their sustainability. Are there programs that fizz out after a few months? Are fencing, zumba, pickle-ball, karate sticking around long enough to want to invest time and energy in signing up and attending.
Sometimes, if a program is cancelled unfortunately it ( in my opinion and who am I?) will affect continued support or attendance because some members might go through a period of "mourning" that change or loss.
Again, please who am I?
