Member Testimonials
good equipment and cleanliness!
Professional trainers
Love group fitness especially the aqua classes! I have bad joints so the aqua fitness classes really help me get into shape while not over exerting my knees and ankles when jumping around.
They teach kids the fundamentals and how to have fun while playing sports!
It's a nice facility with lots of classes. The greatest thing for me is having a free membership in Silver Sneakers through my Medicare health insurance. For retired people, this is a huge bonus!
Variety of activities
Open pickleball times.
I love the personal touch the staff members
The staff is outstanding. This was our first experience with swim lessons. All went above and beyond!
Jessica has been phenomenal with our son, and when Jessica got injured, she worked with us to set up a time with a new coach that our son really likes. He looks forward to swimming every week, it's his favorite thing.
Swim lessons have been great! I know it is hard to navigate managing small children within the small groups but there is one child who has been in our son's lessons now several times who has significant behavioral issues and it is so distracting and frustrating to watch. The poor instructors are constantly trying to control this child and in turn it distracts the other children as well who are trying to learn and pay attention.
This child's parents do not stick around in the pool area so they don't see the child act out and correct it and it leaves the swim instructors in an uncomfortable spot to have to correct the child's behavior.
Not sure what can be done about this but just something I have noticed and has bothered me as of late.
Amazing! Emily our sons swimming teacher is the best. She has pushed him out of his comfort zone and he has improved significantly.
Low cost and well planned.
Great Pickelball
Great water aerobics
Multitude of class choices
Great instructors for cycling and I appreciate the Y adding a cycling class on Thursday night.
We love the Armbrust YMCA branch. There is always something fun going on there. My wife loves the water aerobics classes every morning. Her instructors keep them working hard and never forget to make thing fun! Junior really enjoys the power and strength weight training classes for boys that meets twice weekly. These classes really help him shake the winter blahs and he makes new friends all the time. We are fortunate to live close by the Armbrust Y and our family goes as often as we get the chance.
I like the variety of classes that are offered.
I love my Silver Sneakers.
I absolutely love the classes provided and well maintained machines
Armbrust has a number of classes that are suitable for all ages and fitness. The excellent instructors offer adjustments to the exercises to cover different fitness levels, and play music that encourages activity (no head banging heavy metal). Heather Rock and Anna offer a great workout and can make any class fun. I know I will attend the scheduled classes, but would procrastinate when it comes to working out on machines.
Water classes. Friendly staff
The convenient hours and instructors
Great location with everything you need for a great workout!
The class facilitators and trainers at Armbrust YMCA are knowledgeable, helpful, and motivating. The class director, Anna always listens to our suggestions and acts on them. This is a wonderful community of staff, teachers, trainers and clients.
Friendly and helpful staff.
Body pump is good session, it will be great if you increase more classes in Ambrose.
I am in aquasize Monday though Friday. I enjoy it very much.
If you are looking for some improvement ideas…more benches and mounted coat hooks in the pool area would be so nice. I also think the pool walls need to be painted ASAP. I have noticed a dark streak on the lower part of the walls in the pool area. A fresh coat of paint would be a great improvement. Thank you!!
Lots of variety/options in group classes. And great instructors!
You have a very robust program for seniors. Heather R is fantastic. I train with Kaylee and she is also very good.

We enjoy Heather’s Silver Sneakers classes, etc.
