Member Testimonials
we use the pool daily for exercise and well being for our joints. we recommend it to all our friends and family. we don't use any of the other equipment, so I can't make a judgment on its help.
The staff is nice, they always greet you and help if you need help in operating a machine
The pool and walking track.
I like the cozy, personal atmosphere at the downtown Y. I much prefer it to newer, fancier Ys.
The programs are varied and available to me. I come twice a week for a directed work out with Tommy Distefano. He directs my work out and tailors it to my needs. I am happy with the down town Y!
I really appreciate the programs and activities you offer—they’ve made a big difference for our family. John is truly stellar and always goes above and beyond. Ms. Paige is also wonderful; my grandkids love their swimming lessons, and Zoey especially adores Ms. Paige! Honestly, John should be the director of the entire program—his ideas and leadership are outstanding.
I love the mx 4 active classes, and greatly appreciate the time amber spent to expand the class and add more core work. It is awesome, keep up the good work.
