Member Testimonials
The Y is an important part of our community. I recommend it to people regularly! I am happy we can attend dynamic and friendly fitness classes at many times throughout the week and have a great turf, pool and gym facility. The staff working with the children are enthusiastic and kind and have been wonderful for our family!
Very supportive and knowlegeably interactive instructors. Excellent classes. Friendly atmosphere.
Great swim programs
Need more 11 o’clock classes
Just started the aqua fit. I was going to the hospital pool pre and post knee surgery. Y class is definitely more rigorous than therapeutic.
Good workout.
My only complaint is the size of the class. Not a lot of space.
Variety
I love that you have a work out facility with many options to choose from im most happy with the hot tub and steam room opportunities as well the pool is a great size because many people can share it with plenty space for people to move around it’s also nice to have a Gym for basketball or indoor hockey the St Thomas YMCAis a great place to be when wanting to stay fit and meet new friends
Swimming Pool
Love the Y and all their programs amazing staff
Child mining parent, and tots swims and Fitness classes like Cycling and power as For the fitness centre
great location, great equipment and friendly staff
The swimming lessons are great, our children truly enjoyed them. They are also very motivating. For adults, the aqua fitness programs are great.
Many people (kids and adults) miss the dancing programs which includes the zoomba.
The same about the cycling, triathlon. These programs offered vigorous exercise.
The gym has great equipment, but would be greatly improved with more motivating guidance.
Fitness classes are excellent
Aquafit on Wed am with Diane is my favourite activity. A plan to continue over the winter.
I like that various programs are offered at different points throughout the day to meet the schedules of Y patrons. Instructors are friendly and energetic. They provide modifications in their instructions to allow participants to be more successful with classes.
As a new member, I find it a bit confusing to figure out what exactly each class is for because they have unusual names like Power/Blast/Cyntergy. Obviously, there’s a description for classes somewhere, but I’m not sure where.
I’ve just joined Aqua Fit and I’m enjoying the work out and the leaders are fun. I haven’t tried anything else at this time
Right from the front desk and including all staff and patrons, the Y is a friendly supportive environment.
I really like the aqua fit programs and the instructors!! Lots of options for times to participate!

FLEXIBILITY OF PROGRAMS
Aquafina and the instructors, especially one on Wednesday evening
Like the instructors and varuety of classes
Variety, timing
I just like using the pool
I like the group exercise classes and I would love to try pickleball. I like the pool and my son loves the weight room.
Active user of the fitness centre at YMCA, Sarnia. I am really pleased by the friendliness of the office staff, and the gym instructors. More than everything, it feels happy to see the faces of all the little ones gathered around with their loved ones.
Programs are based off of the children's current interests, they're encouraged to explore different topics
So far I am only utilizing the swimming area of the YMCA. I suffer with a neck disorder & am hopefully building up some muscle & getting some healthy activity. Staff i've encountered are kind & helpful. I hope to be able to utilize some exercise classes soon. Thank You for offering this recreation service!
