I like the interaction with other seniors. I like some classes. I do pool aerobics. Sydney/Cindy, (I couldn’t catch her name for sure) taught our class the other day. She’s very good: energetic, personable, does different exercises!
I use the weights in the workout room, too.
I think what I need most, is changing up routines, so we use different muscles & it’s not boring.

The YMCA Healthy Living Center in Council Bluffs has a lovely building. They offer many classes, both exercise and fun, designed for beginners and older adults. The instructors are friendly and helpful, offering exercise variations as needed. I haven't tried the pool yet, but have heard wonderful things about it. The class members are friendly and welcoming. I am looking forward to trying additional classes.

Love the teachers who make the activities more fun and personable. They know your names. The pool temperature is nice and warm. And the facility is always clean.
The check in and out is easy. The instructor, Mindy, knows my name and speaks to me when I enter class.

I like the facility, it is always clean and a comfortable place to work out. The water activities meet my need for low impact exercise and the instructors are excellent. I like the times available for working out and there are many other opportunities for additional classes and activities. I use the Center three times a week and look forward to the classes I take.
Feel safe participating in both Pilates class and in the pool. Enjoy the camaraderie With Pilates class members
I like the classes offered. I also feel comfortable attending classes that are socially distanced. Classes are a good way to release energy, be social, and work fitness into my life.
