Alot of things offered.
They are geared to older people.
The Swimming and Ex. Classas
All of the people working there are so very helpful! Love the people in charge.
Warm water pool
I prefer the classes to working alone - it's easier for me to keep moving, to keep the heart rate up working in a group -
more importantly, I've met some nice people
Love sewing with community crafters, and Line dancing with Lois and Diana. The pool is great too.
I always encourage people to come to the classes or at least visit the classes. The HLC is so welcoming and has so many classes and social events. I love bringing my grandchildren to grandparents and guppies and they love it too.
Welcoming
pool is amazing for anyone with joint issues or arthritis
Just started but plan to walk in the pool and have used the social calendar a couple times. Played chicken foot dominoes and had a great time.
Friendly Staff & Members. Group classes to support and encourage regular participation. Activities designed for seniors. Instructors are very good. Easy access from parking lot - no stairs or inclines.
The socializing.
A great variety
Friendly staff and participants and.the warm water pool.
The program is all about making me healthy. I love the warm pool. The weight room can match any place. I’m looking forward to starting Tai Chi.
I love the facility. Everyone is so friendly.
The staff is friendly and helpful. They offer so many activities and programs. I like the fact that it is for an over 35 because as an older person, I feel more comfortable trying new things . I love it there!
The staff is excellent!!
I was very satisfied with the pool. That was the first time I had been there in the pool & the Coach, Bob was very helpful with so many suggestions & ideas. We had planned to come back the next day for the balance class but it didn’t work out & the rest of our week had plans. Then I ended up in the hospital on Saturday night with very high blood pressure & heart failure! I am home now but have a stress test scheduled on Monday March 6th & a couple more the rest of the week & by the next week I should be able to start back at the Y.
I look forward to getting back in the grove.

I love the pool. The warm water is so good. Lori is such a good leader. The life guards are pleasant and helpful. Have met so many wonderful people there. So glad that the coffee area is again open
I feel very comfortable and welcome at the Healthy Living Center in Council Bluffs. The staff is friendly and helpful and sincerely cares about us; making sure we can modify things that might be difficult. It's a great atmosphere. A happy place to be!
Great classes with helpful, friendly instructors. We can have a good workout. The instructors are good about offering exercise adjustments for persons with health issues while the rest of the class can do the full workout. I live in Omaha but drive to Council Bluffs about 2 times a week for their classes and wonderful warm water pool.

Many choices.
