good program great instructors

I appreciate silver sneakers as my back issues have lessened a lot. I like the instructor and the people in my groups.

My only complaint is the enfoll.ent process. I got in last time because I came early. Did t b ecsame thing last b time and stood in line for half an hour. Only time I m adr it in since COVID.

My suggestion ....limit enrollment to 3 sessions per person.. Know that your computer system is not infallible. Just share facilities where like sessions are offered .

Thank you

Adaptive swim program has greatly benefited my son

The Farmington Y is a fun place with a welcoming atmosphere.

I enjoy the Silver Sneakers classes!!! The instructors are “Great”!

The coaches are the best!

Nice facility...!

The pool saved my body when my daily activities became too painful.
I was able to move in the pool easily and safely and the aerobic class made me feel empowered and whole again.
The instructors taught me to not fear the water.
I’m able to go in the deep end with confidence
They taught me how to blow bubbles and not hold my breath.
The best thing is the group that shows up in the pool. We are all seniors from maybe 60-95 years old. We embrace each other and accept each other and have fun together.

Wide range of classes taught by excellent health instructors.
Get Helpful support and answers to questions about classes and events at theY.

The excellent Instructors are well qualified and give variations in their classes. I left another gym because the instructors were rote and did the same exercises over and over. They are very friendly and welcoming, as well as encouraging.

Great classes and instructors

Very good instructors

The therapy pool is warm and shallow. The variety of classes and the fitness equipment is good.

I have liked the senior exercise classes, the therapy pool, the Wellness Center, and personal trainers. I find the Y very friendly and reasonably priced.

Class was small so you could get indivual attention. Teacher was very good.

Our son thrived with YMCA summer day camp and we are grateful he had a fun and safe environment.

There is no cost for silver sneakers

The instructors are all very knowledgeable and helpful.

The staff is friendly and helpful as well as the class instructors. The facility is always clean.

I have not actually done any swimming but just the same I've given a score of 10 because I think you have a good program.

I enrolled in the July 14 adult beginner class and was placed in the waiting list. I was expecting that those in the waiting list would be at least notified when the next class opens. But this wasn't the case. If a class is full, students in the waiting list should have the option to enroll or given priority in the next class.

What's happening is that if on the first day or few days the enrollment is open, the class is immediately filled up because of high demand. Those in the waiting list who are not aware of the open enrollment date or not available to enroll at the start date wouldn't be able to enroll again.

Friendly, clean, great staff.

I have been a member of Farmington YMCA since 1990. do i need to say more?
I love the atmosphere, and classes and kids programs too

My instructor Jamie makes the class very fun and you feel very good when your class is over from a good workout.

Love the classes

Friendly staff. The front desk team always makes me feel welcome.
Lynn is an awesome group exercise instructor who pays attention to her students and shows them how to make the most of their workout.
Bill is the best personal training - kind, thorough, fun, and professional

Love the Y, the programs and the instructors, but I have to tell you, the new app is garbage. The old app, for all of it's clunkyness, was far superior to what we're working with now. I can't find programs at Farmington, I've inadvertantly signed up for programs in Milford, upon discovering that mistake, I am unable to unregister for that class, depriving someone else from the spot. It's difficult to filter by location, and when I do get to the class, there are no days or times listed anywhere on the enrollment info or checkout process.
Finally, all the fitness tracker information went away. There's no way to log or track exercise, no points accrual, and in the "badges" section, nothing from the previous app ported over.
It's bad, folks. I hope someone is working on improvements.

Silver Sneakers. Everybody were so supportive and friendly.
