Pickleball!!! Absolutely love playing at the Whitaker Bank YMCA. This location is so convenient for us, but more then that it is a place where we now feel at home. The employees are super nice and very accommodating. Also, the health center has been wonderful for me to begin getting into better shape. I have a personal trainer (Jeff Wilson) and he has been kind, patient and informative with instructing me on all the new equipment. I would absolutely recommend getting a personal trainer, even for a short time, to all new people interested in learning how to work out safely. 10 out of 10, I recommend the YMCA.

Water fitness and Pilates Reformer

Excellent programs. Excellent Instructors.

I love the instructors and classes I take. The facility is really nice, it’s bright and clean. The location is good for me. I’ve met nice people there.

Great facilities and staff!

Lots of different activities. Regarding pickleball for which I go often, you are making changes to accommodate all level of players such as times and especially efforts to move the beginning players to a separate courts and offering them instruction. Without sounding superior, it's just a fact that it takes most of the fun out of my participation when 1 or 2 of the players in a game is a true beginner.

I like the classes especially Fundamental Fitness and the instructor. I took the pickle ball class from Shana which was excellent and played the next day. I plan to continue both activities. Friendly staff

Water Exercise. But sometimes the music is too loud

Even when crowded it dosent ever feel crowded. Employees very helpful and nice. Always some equipment available.

There are several different programs you can choose from whatever your fitness level you are The instructor and the people in the are friendly and encouraging.

They are fun ,and very good workouts !!

Pool, Spa, Walking and exercise.

All activities are wonderful

Variety

We like the wellness center, pickleball (kirk), yoga, pool and actually everything about the programs and activities including the people! Staff and members are always a pleasure!

Nice pool and spa area. I ama rowing machine person. I would like to see a rowing machine outside of the weight room area. I thought this was more male dominated and loud space. Very distracting.

Everything!

Swimming pool, especially for smaller children.

Great staff leading the kids swim classes!

Everything is great!

Very friendly Staff. I especially like taking Zumba classes. Please, please, please hire another Zumba teacher to replace the one that quit in December.

The Whitaker Family YMCA is amazing! I love walking on your track and using your fitness machines. I also love swimming laps in your pool. The water temperature is always perfect.

The best part of this YMCA is the front desk staff and maintenance employees. Everyone is helpful and interested in providing members with a safe/clean environment.

People who work there are so friendly and helpful. Also the members are friendly and helpful. While I’m glad to see teens there & glad they go to the Y, sometimes they sit in the machines and text.
Everyone who works there is very helpful with any of my questions. I’ve known Jeff from Beaumont & he is so helpful.
I’ve had trouble adjusting to the new machines but they are very nice.
I haven’t participated in any programs for some time as I stick w/the weight room. I tried water aerobics & would again but the water is WAY too cold. Too bad because it would be good for a senior like me.
Many thanks to everyone who works there!
