The Sterling Ctr has a great culture where the people are nice and the facility frequently makes upgrades and keeps things up-to-date.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

Great classes, friendly staff, clean and spacious. the only thing I would change is the women’s sauna, it never gets hot enough, there should be clothes, towel or bathing suits mandatory worn in it. Also pool exercises classes would be great!

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

There is a great variety of classes, you can always (just about) swim laps, the exercise machines are plentiful and the pickleball is very active and welcoming. , The weight training course I joined for the winter season was beneficial and I appreciated the opportunity of the small group format.

What is missing for me is the opportunity to play pickleball in a different format than simply open play. You only get to play one game to 9 and then you wait generally 3 or more games for an opportunity to play again and you play with a different partner. It is hard to improve your game and learn how to play as a pair. Also, you can be there for 2 hours and only play 5-6 games. I would be interested in playing in some sort of league play structured around skill level and limited number of players at a given time.

The variety of exercise classes and both open and lap swim lanes is just so wonderful. The Y keeps getting better and better, and I am just thrilled at all the wonderful options members have. Saunas are also wonderful, set at a great temperature. Facilities are clean. Appreciate it all!

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

I have loved joining the Y. I was new to this area and needed to get out and exercise and meet new people. I am a senior and have enjoyed many of the pool exercise classes. Also, the chair firmness class and the gym. People are very friendly and the Y staff is helpful and great.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

The great gym. Good equipment variety. Also the enviroment is a lot more respectful and peaceful than a typical gym. Everyone does their thing and doesn’t bother anyone else if they don’t have to. The gym equipment like the bikes also have things like games and other visuals to help make workouts a bit more fun.

Why are you so likely to recommend the Y?

We love the Kids Club and aquatics staff for swim lessons as well as swim team. We do wish that when it wasn't busy on the weekends or school vacations that the Kids Club was 2 hours unless it did get busy. Often it's an hour and just time to rush in and out for a class despite the fact the room is rather empty.
