I am enjoying gym activities weekly - TRX and core specifically with Diane.
Diane is a wonderful instructor.
She is prepared every class - that is so impressive.
She also makes it a priority to remember each class participants' name and calls you by name every time she sees you.
The opportunity to have a class at 4:30pm is amazing - right after my work day. Love it!
So far I've only done aquafit classes and also the cardio equipment. Its very nice. Clean and a safe environment. I would definitely recommend the Y.
Love the classes! There is nice variety at the Y. Something for everyone.
The classes

I like the variety and the instructors!

The pool classes but would more 11 o’clock classes
Great staff & good facilities.
Pool hours. Yoga program is great. Looking forward to trying some of the slower programs offered like tai chi
I love how inclusive it is and how it encourages everyone to maintain a healthy lifestyle
As far as gym/fitness/activity centre go, very versatile. Offers many amenities under one roof. I've been accommodated at multiple locations with bringing my young children in to swim. Staff have always been extremely welcoming, things are well maintained. Great place for me and the kids.
It is a place where you can get fun and enjoy the time with your family.
We felt good and welcome at the gym, the staff was wonderful, thank you!
The Y in St Thomas is great. Its not a pretentious gym with judgmental stares. Its an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcomed and comfortable. I love it there and recommend to anyone who wants to work out in peace and use great equipment.
It very well organized, staff is so welcoming and helpful, the property is very clean as well .
Swimming and the staff are the best part of the St Thomas YMCA!!
I wish the closing hours were a little longer / later .
childcare, group fitnesses classes and spacious free weights facility
Thank you for providing such a variety of programming.
As a very new member I can’t comment on all of them, yet I enjoyed the fitness classes I have tried so far. I specifically appreciate the friendliness and kindness of your classes’ facilitators that seem to genuinely care about participants . I felt welcomed by everyone and your facility quickly became my new favourite place in St.Thomas.
The people on the front desk and two of those who were in the swimming pool approached me to ask if everything was okay and help also with the steam room so that I were able to enjoy it because it was very low in steam. I perceived their genuinely interested in seeing I enjoying my visit. None of them knew of this.
I'm thankful.
I was very satisfied with my daughter's experience at the YMCA, St. Thomas March Break Camp. She had lots of fun and it was good she was able to go swimming in the YMCA pool.
I can only speak to the swimming, because I wasn't told what other activities they were doing throughout the day. I did gather over the week that there was some colouring and outdoor play as well. A weekly schedule, or activity list would be nice to for the parents, so they have an idea of what is going on.
Only area I can touch on for improvement, is ensuring camp staff is at the facility promptly for 7:25 am for those parents who paid for extended drop-off & pick-up hours.
Thank you.
I love the pool. Would love to have an adult only swim time like they used to before Covid. It was usually for 45 minutes to an hour before they closed for the night at 10pm. But especially now that the pool is open to anyone in St Thomas, which is great, but the pool being so populated makes it hard as an adult to get a nice relaxing swim in.
I’m also excited for the new Pilates class. I hope you’ll add another class so more people can try it out rather than be on a wait list 😊
