Member Testimonials

Everything! Our experience at ELC was nothing short of incredible. The teachers (special shout out to Coco, Tamara, Allie, Rie Rie, Elizabeth, Katy and Alma) are so special! They make learning fun and prepare the students for kindergarten. We miss being there! The admin is just as wonderful - Angela and Lorigan meet you every day with smiles and they know every child and parent names. It is a very special place.

I like that the programs and activities help the students grow their skills and develop their social relationships with others.

Good staff, not usually crowded. You need to start enforcing the tying up of equipment while using cell phones.

Large building, tons of activities, beautiful pool, nice locker rooms

I have been a member there for 17 or 18 years and try to go to class three times weekly. It is a wonderful facility and the instructors are fabulous. I only do the Fit for Life class but have used the upstairs equipment on occasion.

I love the Y

We have had a great experience in the two years we have been with the Y. My oldest son Benjamin just left to go to kindergarten and he still begs me to bring him back to see Ms Kim and Ms Jocelyn. I am so grateful for those 2 ladies, they brought the best out of Ben and taught him so much, he would not be where he is developmentally if it was not for them. Our other son Sam started in Topaz this month and Ms Allie and Ms Tamara have been incredible, I can already see how they truly care about these kids and their development and I am very happy he will have a whole year with them. We really enjoy the Y education system, we have Ben in afterschool at NB and he already seems to have connected with some of the staff there, it’s really nice to see everyone in the Y system has such positive attitudes and genuinely loves being with kids.

Wonderful friendly atmosphere, so fun

Welcoming environment and a good variety of classes. The Soul Center has been a nice addition.

I love the access to multiple swim lanes, clean changing rooms and plenty of parking, plus friendly staff!

Very welcoming for everybody, no matter what age and how wealthy you are.

The kids get to hang out with their friends in a more relaxed setting

Love the staff! The kids get plenty of outdoor time and structured activities!

Good variety of classes, competent instructors, friendly staff
