Member Testimonials

I love the kids corner and the workers there. they really care for us as a family. I love the classes and instructors as well

Please have a yoga or pilates session available at lunch time for working parents.

Variety of options, great instructors, good time selections

I, especially, enjoy the Silver Sneakers Classic program with Ruth. She is an excellent instructor, always moving around to make sure we know what she is doing and that we are following her. All the instructors should pattern themselves after her.

Participating in this class has helped me make new friends and these friends keep me motivated to keep coming back. I've never been so consistent in attending health classes. So, thank you, Ruth and friends.

I like the group exercise classes because they push me to work harder and I like the socialization.

Don’t use, only cardio/weights.

They are at convenient times. They offer high/low modifications so you can get the best workout for you.

The amount of equipment that is available. I like that they provide clothes for wiping down equipment versus paper towels.

Variety of activities to allow everyone to find something they enjoy.

I like the atmosphere at the Y. It feels like family. I feel encouraged and that keeps me coming back, even though I don't even like to exercise.

Great variety of classes and activities love the classes and all the instructors. I love that it is not only a gym but it's a family!!

Leaders/instructors are well trained, friendly, and very competent. The facilities are clean.

we do silver sneakers. some of the trainers are very good. all are adequate.

Lots of classes and programs to
Meet needs of all age groups. Attractive lobby giving a welcoming atmosphere. Check in woman, however isn’t equally friendly—has favorites.

I feel fortunate to have Beaumont y located so close to me and appreciate that it utilizes silver sneakers.

Just like working out and going to the outdoor pool in summer. Wish there was yogi more often and at times that work for people who work a little later.

I am a senior member and have been for the last 8 years. I am a life long "gym rat" and
use the Silver Sneakers health program as my provider.
I use the free weights to work out and do a Spin class for my cardio activity 3 times a week.
I have been to a gym wherever I lived from the time I was in high school, through college
years and 6 years in the Air Force.
The YMCA was a character builder for me where I learned to swim, play basketball, dance and learn leadership and friendship. I see these same programs for the small kids and young men
today. Please keep up the good work.

I would like to see a family/child yoga class

Love the indoor track. Love the pool. Love all the light from the windows. Dressing rooms way too cold!! Don’t like the fans always running in dressing rooms. Pool deck is way too slippery & hazardous for the elderly. Should be flat & textured.

I like that the machinery is in good working condition and there are enough that I almost always have access to one when I need it. I also like that there is a variety of activities so while I'm exercising my teens can enjoy themselves and their friends on the court or in the pool. And the cost is very fair.

I take Terry Fister’s yoga class. He’s a wonderful teacher. A number of us have become friends and go out to lunch when class is over.
Otherwise, I don’t make as much use of the facility as I should, but I appreciate having the Y close to my home.

It is great that you recognize the Silver Sneakers program for seniors. I am 72 yo and the walking track plus warm water pool fitness classes are just what my husband and I need to keep active. Keep doing a great job.

I want to thank the staff at the Beaumont Y in Lexington. I had tried to get a package of peanut butter crackers out of the vending machine with no luck. All it was giving me for my dollars was 90 cents. I asked for help at the desk. Two staff members tried and tried with no luck. A staff member offered me almonds and honey because by that time my blood sugar was very low. Another staff member came by and offered his help. He was successful and wouldn't take a payment. I thank the staff for their for their concern and helpfulness.

I enjoy going to the Y with friends. Although I hate to go swimming I really like the free time in the warm water pool.

With thanks, Susan Miller
