Member Testimonials
The walking track has been great to access for a family member with health issues.
Great variety and schedule
Lots of options
I only have used the pool for Aquafit. I am so thankful for the life guards that have stayed with Goderich YMCA. I know there had been times that they had to close, for a day or two, due to staff shortages. I know of one other Complex in the area (that isn’t a YMCA) that has had to close it’s pool because they can’t retain it’s employees. It’s so sad to see that happening as the community needs that facility
For Aquafit instructors make the workouts fun and different each and every day.
Myself, I use Aquafit as a continuing help to Physio (which I couldn’t access after my stroke in March 2020) it gives me a safety “net” that if I fall while walking, I’ll just float instead of falling. My range of motion and walking is greatly improved when I consistently go, so much so that my doctor complimented me on how well I was getting along at physiotherapy. I said “Thanks but actually using the pool at the YMCA Goderich”. Well he said whatever you are doing it’s working, keep it up!
Thank-you Goderich YMCA for helping me to walk again.
Great programs! Loved the big group at aquafit.
Lifeguards were so friendly.
Yoga class looked good and also the cycling/TRX class looked really interesting too.
Looking forward to coming back.

The swimming and Aquafit is a life line for many older folks with arthritis etc who need this kind of gentle exercise. Love all the staff and wish they could earn more. Turnover affects numbers.

There’s something for everyone in our family. Mom does aquafit and multiple yoga classes plus walks the indoor track. Dad walks the track and uses the gym for training. Our son runs on the indoor track and works out at the gym and plays Monday night basketball. So many options! Staff are amazing especially Courtney at the desk!!!!
