Member Testimonials
They are so welcoming to new members and there is such a variety of activities to choose from. I joined because of the warm water pool and have been so busy with other activities that I haven't used it yet.
As a water aerobics instructor I feel valued and supported by the Y community. It's easy to recommend the Y to others.
The y center for healthy living has helped me get healthier. There are a plethora of classes from which to choose. The fitness room is wonderful as well and not very crowded. There is always staff available to assist on a moments notice.
Enjoy the group classes.

I like the classes offered at the. Center and using the pool to exercise
I like the available classes and the facilities at the Senior Center. They are perfect to meet my goals.
I love the classes that strengthen my body and the friendships that warm my heart.
The Center is the perfect place for anyone to get healthier and feel better. It is one of the reasons I stayed in Council Bluffs. The heated pool is my savior. I also love the workout room. The activities planned for older adults really makes our center one of a kind. I did hate to see the meal program cease there. It wasn’t so much the food; it was the loss of companionship. The lunch area used to be packed at noon and now it’s the odd table eating a meal from HyVee. Poor mistake by bureaucracy without consulting the people it involved.
Exercise, friendship, health, and social time.
