I like the heated pool, the fact that the machines work and are clean... I tell people all the time how great the Downtown YMCA is...
I love the swimming class for my son (level 4 and 5) and personal training with Beth

Equipment
Dan Kohler is an outstanding trainer. He's a good listener and yet he wants me to train well so I am able to get healthier and lose weight while gaining muscle tone. Thank you
My kids love playing YMCA sports because they get to learn new skills, meet new people, and play in a positive and supportive environment.
How attentive and respect the instructor was
I appreciate the range of resistance training options, with a variety of machines but also a moderately sized strength training room with three racks and three deadlift platforms.
The strength room would be even better if staff reinforced lifters returning weights to proper locations when their lifting regimen is complete.
Very happy with the lessons this session. The instructor was very good and paid individual attention to each student in the class,
Friendly
Staff expertise, friendly environment
I like the total body conditioning classes
I love the childwatch program and staff and the tots swimming program. I love working out there but one thing I do not love is the overwhelming use of scents in one of the downstairs rooms. There’s so much research about scents and things like that having volatile organic compounds that are harmful to humans. It makes it difficult to work out in that room.
I feel it's a safe and supportive place to be. If I have any questions, I ask the staff and they are happy to help me in anyway.
Love the Y. Always clean, newly updated locker room with paint and flooring.
The pool has been lacking with a pump/sand/ filter problem that should be addressed more quickly.
Good Services
It's close to my house but they got everything you need to get in shape!
I love the cycle classes!!!
i like the swimming pool and the equipment options. i haven't participated in any of the classes but they sound great and i like that they are spread out throughout the day to accommodate various schedules.
I feel great after every training session.
I enjoy the downtown YMCA pool for lap swimming. Pool is well maintained and the guards are super friendly and very accommodating.
GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.
I like that it’s not overcrowded and can get in and out and complete a full workout.
I like that it's clean been remodeled over the years the only thing that's missing is a quick dry machine in the ladies dress room area machine that you can use to quick spin your clothes after swimming dries your clothes out a little.
The women's gym.
Staff are friendly and helpful.
I warm up in Women’s Fitness Center and meet trainer Beth for a workout. She keeps me strong and the weight training keeps me agile. I learn how to use the equipment from Beth. You are welcome at all the area YMCAs. I did some water walking at the Southwest Y after my knee scar healed following replacement surgery.

Working out is good on the body. Plus the pool is nice to when you don't want to work out. Also the gym is good for playing basketball.
