Member Testimonials
I love chair Yoga!!!! Martina is wonderful!!!
senior group exercise
They are designed to benefit the appropriate age group. Also nice to meet new people so enjoy the social aspect as well as the physical benefits of the "y"
Dear YMCA staff and administrators:
At age 72, I like to "body build" using the exercise equipment (not free weights).
My physique belies any success in that regard. I will keep trying.
My exercise routing does involve the front desk help, to the extent that
I impart less than meaningful verbiage, both on arrival and departure.
That, to express my thanks, is well received by the front desk.
I can only imagine the thought "What the h___ does that mean?"
when the clerk gives me such a warm and friendly smile.
Southwest Y has a great variety of classes appropriate for older active adults. The instructors are friendly, knowledgeable and capable.
The silver sneakers program. I like it not only because it’s an exercise program geared to my age but I also enjoy the fellowship that we enjoy over coffee which is provided by the Y.
The Silver Sneakers program was suggested by my Oncology Physcian in 2017. It is a life saver for me. The staff and program are an esentual in my life
THE LARGE VARIETY OF PROGRAMS OFFERED
Keeps me healthy! Enjoy the weight machines & ellipticals. Welcoming & responsive staff (if problems arise).
The whole experience is terrific; I don’t think it could get any bettet
Yoga with Melissa and splash pad for kids
Good space, nice staff
Friendly staff, great classes!
I like the Silver Sneakers classes and the social activities for seniors like the potlucks and trips.
Honey the aquatics instructor/coach…at the moment, it when she’s thru with me I shall enjoy the pool as much as I ever had…
The friendly and 🧭 staff is also very important to me, they’re fantastic …
I love the pool, adult aquacise / programs. I feel welcome and comfortable in the gym and pool. I’ve felt very intimidated at other locations which made me not feel comfortable to continue to workout or to even ask for help.
Weeks after I started coming there I asked for what is call a walk through to explain the machines. The guy really didn't explain how to work any of the machines & when I explained I had recently had hip surgery & was suposto have knee surgery & i needed to know which machines would & wouldn't benifits me, well at the end I still had no clue about anything. If it wasn't for an off the clock staff member months later explaining the ins & outs of the machines I'd still be on just the newstep
I’ve just been swimming since I’ve joined and I find the locker rooms and the pool very ckean
Jen. She is the best instructor. You are very lucky she is with you
Great facility
There is alot to choose from. The instructors are awesome they get you up and moving. They push you , it's alot of fun , and make you feel welcomed
I love your programs. I am a senior citizen and I feel there are quite a few classes to choose from that suit my needs. I think the instructors are awesome. They are super knowledgeable, very friendly as well as very caring. This is new for me since I never really enjoyed going to a gym. I am so very glad I joined the YMCA. Also, there is an added bonus getting to meet new people and socialize which is important especially as we get older.
Silver Sneakers activities
Adult summing class had been great so far! I’ve learned so much in only three weeks with the amazing instructor. I posted on my social media that I was attending adult swimming class and many people didn’t know it was an option, I’d recommend more advertising for adults that want to learn, and check it off their bucket list :)
Great programs for Seniors, friendly staff!
Good facility, well maintained with helpful staff, thank you!
