Member Testimonials

I love my knowledgeable and dedicated instructors. Heather and Lisa have different routines and exercises every week, well planned and focused. They ensure the quality of the class as well as my safety. Every class I go to at the Y is amazing.

Clean facility. Caring members who are respectful and engaging. Members who enjoy fitness activitiesand can in that way inspire one to persevere to their own goals. Members who are mature enough to act in a civil manner, and not monopolize the fitness resources. Helpful and alert staff, ready and willing to assist you. A very solid variety of fitness equipment. Plenty of bicycles, steppers, concept 2 rowers, circuit fitness macines. Good size areas which never seem to be overcrowded even during busy times

I use the machine and weight room. I love the natural light and the friendliness of Jeff.

The "energy" one experiences at the Lynch-Van Otteloo YMCA is like no other! This energy starts with the leadership on 2nd level of the building (free weights and machines) and trickles down to the participants/members!

Great facility very helpful staff.

Great variety of equipment. Convenient.

Great place. You enter to a welcome from John Witt then on the exercise floor Keith one great associate. Equipment in great shape. One great place to enjoy exercise.

We love this y, my children love the summer program since they are little, now they are working for the YMCA. Such a growth journey for the children!
I’m so happy Sarah created the program for teenagers , it’s creating the friendships, relationships and leadership! Helps the young people become a responsible, lovable in the thoughtful !

Service is very good, staff is helpful. John ,on the front desk always greets me cheerfully.

Comprehensive offering of activities'. Good equipment. Friendly staff. Clean environment. Reasonable cost.

It's a gym but feels more like a community (unlike Lifetime!)

I love the variety of classes and for all ages. I love the instructors; Abbey (Functional Exercise Circuit), Jamie (nutrition) & Cara (yoga)

I recently took a Healthy Weight Class program that was transforming.

Please make swim caps mandatory in the pool. Way too much hair in pool. Makes no sense that people don’t have to wear them. I’ve requested multiple times and no one ever responds. Make me feel like the Y doesn’t care about its members.

Keith is the best

I am very glad that we have a Y so close to our house. There are many opportunities for people of all ages.

Great facility, and a very kind staff.

The group exercise classes and instructors I have worked with are great.

So much to do it with the all family

You have fantastic Yoga teacher in Cara. The place is a little too crowded and your staff that sits in the office should more conscientously make sure people are wiping down equipment after using and also getting people who are sitting on their phones on weight equipment to move. Unfortunately your staff in the office on the second floor are often sitting on their phones too, which I do not think is what you intend to pay them to do.

Lots of programs, friendly staff, beautiful facility.

Welcoming atmosphere / friendly, helpful staff.
Modern equipment.

I think it is a great place for children. My daughter is a member of the Phoenix Gymnastics team and she loves it. They have so many activities and events which allow my daughter to make friends and grow her skills!

Good equipment and good operating times

Been a class act for so many years, the National and our local

Great staff and gym

Pool is great good hours

It's a great facility with many offerings. The biggest drawback is it is so crowded at certain times.
