Member Testimonials

All programs and activities are are helpful for physical wellness

Clean spaces, lots of room, energetic instructors

Good variety and times

Accessibility, clean environments.

The people at the front desk were super helpful and friendly. I signed up for Pickleball 101. Cant wait to try it out!

Clean facilities, friendly staff, ease of parking, plenty of exercise equipment, and sports courts.

Very clean facility. Staff is very friendly/nice.

Yes the programs and activites are really Awesome at Whitaker. The only complaint I have ever had there was in the summertime. There are families who drop their kids off at the pool for hours and they leave the oldest in charge. Who is just a kid themselves so there really is no supervision. The lifeguards can only do so much. So we have had to just go home on a few different situations.
Thank you,

I like that you offer pickleball options

I like the variety of choices in physical activities, the way an administrator has listened to me when I need to voice an opinion about something at the Y, and the communication on social media.

The facility is nice and spacious as well as clean and bright. Staff is great and make you feel welcome.

I love the programs, but would like some more cycling and TRX classes in the evenings on either Wednesday or Thursday. Eveything is Monday or Tuesday.

Good variety of options for exercising. Only things missing is a therapeutic warm pool and an outside pool like at Beaumont. Need more open swim area that doesn’t encroach on lap lanes.

Clean friendly environment.

The Whittaker YMCA staff is very friendly and the facilities are great.

My favorite part of the Whitaker YMCA is Pilates Reformer classes (Pam and Monika are amazing!) and group yoga classes (Mary, Dorainne, and Colleen are awesome!). Anything that starts between 8 and 8:30am is perfect because that it's too early so I can get the kids to school and not too late so I can still make it to work at a reasonable time. I am disappointed though that there is no 8:15am pilates reformer class option anymore. We need more 8, 8:15, or 830am pilates reformer classes! Unfortunately I had to go from 2 classes a week to just 1 because there is not another offering at that time. I would love to see more options because these classes are amazing!!

Best place in town

Love the separate lap pool!

The Y is very clean and well managed. Great walking track, pool area. The programs are amazing and there are programs for young and older individuals.

Fit my schedule. Challenging for adults of all ages.

Variety of classes and the different times that are available.

Silver Sneakers classes

I don't use any programs.

The Y has a multitude of programs for all ages. I participate in the water aerobics. For the most part the instructors are wonderful. There is one bad apple but he is an anomaly. the rest of the instructors are top notch. There is nice variety. Your desk support always makes people feel welcomed.

I love the overall cleanliness and state of the facility. We enjoy the pool and use it often. I can’t speak to the fitness classes yet as I haven’t taken any but look forward to it. The childcare is a fantastic option as I have 3 kiddos.

Great clean environment with multiple areas and activities to stay healthy working out with friendly staff and friends!

There is a lot of equipment, Pickleball basketball, the Whittaker why is my YMCA
