Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

It has a great vibe. All ages of people - it’s inspiring. I like that the big area is open with lots of sunshine. Plenty of variety of machines and ‘toys’. The new locker rooms are lovely.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Everyone who works at the Y, everyone who comes to the Y, and everyone who supports the Y, are all great people.
And they are from all over. Different people from different places with different backgrounds. And they are all really good people at the Y.
And I believe it is because of the example that the Y sets through everyone who works there.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

I love the Y because it offers a plethora of opportunities for everyone to participate in moving their bodies. I really appreciate that you can start off slowly but can move on to more challenging tasks when/if you are ready without having to switch to a different organization!!

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.
