Outstanding group fitness classes. All y staff excellent. Everyone tries to make the y experience fantastic

I joined the Whitaker YMCA because of their water aerobics classes and I just love the instructors for their Deep water aerobics, and regular water aerobics. Also I like how clean you keep your facility especially the locker rooms! Keep up the good work!
Water aerobic classes are wonderful
The equipment, employees, nstructors, and Christian friends that I have met from the Y
Varied, open to all
The facility is managed by a fantastic team, and the staff is always warm and welcoming. The members create a positive atmosphere, making it an enjoyable place to be with a strong sense of community.
My husband and I brought our infant daughter to play in the pool. She had the best time with smiles all around! We loved getting her in the water and how nice and shallow it was. My husband can’t swim, so it was perfect for him too. We also loved the family hallway with the family bathrooms. It allowed us to get ready afterward together which was perfect because I got to get ready and my husband held the baby and then he got ready and I held the baby. And there was a changing table in the same bathroom! I’ve never been in a facility so far as a new mom that is so convenient. This location is a bit of a drive for us, but we come to it for that reason.
We very much enjoy using the Y

Great instructors …
Like getting on the exercise bike and the treadmill and I like to go swimming and get in the hot tub
One would have to visit our local Whitaker YMCA at Hamburg in Lexington to appreciate how clean; well equipped with an abundance of exercise equipment and programs for all ages; well managed; and how talented and unique its staff is beginning with Director Dana Ensley and including such people as Amber, Mikki, Will, Mary, Laura, Ron, Tom, Tabitha, and Missy.
The EGYM Program which was added about a year ago, is literally in a class by itself and includes eleven pieces of exercise equipment all assembled in one place, all of which are automatic in the sense that they record and update your data, and as appropriate, they update the amount of weight one works with on each of the 11 machines. Some company must have invested multiplied millions of dollars in the research and development of these sophisticated machines.
They YMCA of central KY hosts a great variety of programs and activities - for every age group, for every fitness level and at an affordable cost.
I love the Pilates reformer and the new E-machines. Love that I have made such good friends at the Y and look forward to seeing them as we walk the track and talk. The water aerobics is a wonderful class, yoga and of course all the classes for seniors. Our greeters are always welcoming and great leaders that take care of us and accommodate our needs. Whittaker YMCA is a great place to get friendship and fit!
