They are great
For me, the Y is my favorite place to de-stress. The activities that the Y offers are perfect for us seniors, where we feel active, healthy and simply happy.
Clean facility
Well run establishment. Friendly staff. Also very clean and good adherence to COVID-19 restrictions and protocol.
love the classes and the people I meet!
It gives me a sense of belonging.
I like the openness, friendliness and variety of programs.
The pool allows me to exercise all my muscles without straining or impact. It's great for my back. I haven't been to the chiropractor since I started swimming.
Friendly staff , Kind to members , and task oriented.
I really enjoy the Aqua Fit classes. Having joint issues, this is the perfect exercise.
All staff are so friendly and helpful.
I'm looking forward to starting a personal fitness program .

I love swimming
I exclusively use the pool and I am very happy to be back. Lane swims are well organized.
The pool is great and the covid set up is excellent ..I feel very safe coming here

I love aqua fit! So happy we can use the pool again. Will be happy when 6oga classes resume.
Facilities are clean and well managed, equipment well maintained and I love the group exercise classes
I like Aqua Fit, but I gave 9 points instead of 10 because it is currently accepted on a first-come-first-served basis. This is because members cannot attend any classes if they do not enter the first-come-first-served basis even after paying the membership fee.
Other than that, YMCA is always a 10 for me.
Great staff in St. Thomas. I miss the indoor classes but glad pool is open.
This is the only gym I have been a member of ( and Ive belonged to many) that makes me feel comfortable. Im never judged and I know there is always help if needed.
Aqua fit
I have always found all of the staff very accommodating and eager to help. Throughout the past two years, under extreme and unusual circumstances, Diane and Emily have strived to keep chairfit available to a large group of older clients. From driving to London to video lessons online, to inviting us to workout outside the building, to phoning to help register when they miss our name on the list, these two ladies have contributed to our mental and physical well being more than they will ever know.
I love the ymca sense of community 🥰
I like being in group fitness and aqua fit, I enjoy being with people and enjoy all the instructors. I am more motivated with a group then trying to exercise on my own,
Hopefully they resume soon! I enjoy many of them!
Pool is wonderful and staff are friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately due to struggling to regain strength, mobility and the Covid 19 pandemic, I have been concentrating on lane swimming. The lane swimming is going well. I enjoy having a set time and minimum people per lane but do look forward to having these restrictions lifted.
The instructors are good and the atmosphere is welcoming and efficient.As well, things are well maintained.
Variety of classes and times
Various options for all ages and abilities
Mostly enjoy the weight room
Inclusive to all

Variety of programs … instructors encourage participants to make adaptations to suit personally.
Always someone nearby to advise or offer assistance as needed.
Facility is beautifully kept and maintained.
Happy welcoming staff and volunteers.
