I would likely recommend the Y because it is family oriented and there are a lot of different activities that everyone can participate in.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

For the price, there is no other local gym with the same amenities. I can go to any Y I chose, and I have full access to all equipment, i have the ability to book private rooms, unlimited free classes, tennis/ pickleball courts, swimming... The Y is also really great about offering discounts- they have a long list of employers to whom they offer their employees a monthly percentage off membership. I truly recommend the Y to everyone. Based on how often I'm using the various membership benefits, the monthly cost is very reasonable.
Most importantly: I have never had a bad experience at the Y, and I have been going my whole entire life. Every single employee has been courteous, kind, and helpful. I consider the gym a vulnerable location, and admittedly safety was a big concern for me when finding a gym. Every locker room, class, training session..., I have felt safe and as though my privacy was honored.
Anyway, I love that I just waxed poetic about the literal YMCA, but I really do love it and I think the employees deserve so much recognition for creating such a positive experience.

What do you like about our program and activities?

The gymnastics class was small enough that my granddaughter got a lot of individual attention. She learned a good amount of new skills while still having fun as a 5 year old.

What do you like about our program and activities?

They are great quality programs with dedicated coaches all around. The girls on Elite are being pushed to improve in a regular basis, they are learning not only their respective sport, but what it means to be a good teammate and how to conduct themselves in a professional manner when it comes to good sportsmanship. These are life lessons that every child should be learning as it will serve them well now and as they continue to grow.
