Member Testimonials
I love the water aerobics classes. :) But I think it would be good to hire more instructors and life guards so classes not cancelled when they are sick.
Group activities
I like the ease of using the classes
Programs are challenging, encouraging, and fun! Plenty of choices to choose from and plenty of classes to try something new! Classes are not intimidating, so it’s easy to try a new skill, or learn something about yourself.
Exercise machines and pool
Since reestablishing myself at the YMCA, my overall health has greatly improved, both mentally and physically. My doctor is very excited with these improvements. His wanted me to make cardio my primary objective. I am happy to say I have now done much more than that. I make a tremendous effort not to miss the following classes:
Monday Senior Fit with Michelle and Core and More with Ninia
Tuesday Step with Yuri My number one class for cardio and boy is it a GREAT cardio workout!
Wednesday Senior Fit with Michelle and Kettle Ball AMP with Nina
Occasionally I will make the Friday Senior Fit with Tammy but after such a workout Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, I just need a break.
All three classes have improved my physical ability and endurance beyond measure. Each class addresses my primary goal of improving cardio but then they go well beyond that. My upper and lower body extremities have improved greatly, and my core is nothing short of wow! Something I have to say that I did not look after until now. Kudos and thank you YMCA!
Dear YMCA Admin Staff,
I'd like to offer praise for a member of your maintenance staff, Ron. (Note: Maintenance was not one of the categories offered on pull-down menu). I have seen Ron go about his duties in the locker rooms many times in our months as members of the Y, and this employee is remarkable for the conscientious way he goes about his tasks. He takes locker hygiene to an art form. There is no hint of drudgery in his approach and -- if he takes this kind of care with YMCA property -- what must his personal property look like? Like the rest of the Y staff Ron is affable and caring. I don't know where you find these people but it's a credit to your management that you hire and retain them. Well done from two of your biggest fans,
Bub & Julie Patterson
I swim three times a week and am very happy with the Y.
Bear Levin Studer Family YMCA is a wonderful family-oriented gym with great facilities! The parking deck makes going to a downtown gym a breeze!
I love having lots of times available to swim laps. Love the sauna.
I love that it allows low income senior citizens a reasonable rate to be able to come in and do your physical therapy and exercises. It has helped me with my fibromyalgia and my hip surgery recovery and I appreciate you very much. Thank you
Great customer service! Great for every age, family-oriented, clean, and safe atmosphere for kids.
The staff is Absolutely Amazing, The front desk staff is on Point.. JoAnn is Outstanding...
Location.
The Step classes are amazing especially when Ashley teaches. She doesn’t make you feel like you have to be a pro or had to have taken step for years to figure it out! Most members have been taking these classes for years. Ashley is awesome.
Please consider moving the 4pm combat class to Monday. No one comes at 4 and it’s hard to get to it during that time. Most are working
This YMCA is very clean and professional staff. The staff on the front desk is very nice, Courtney, Rose and Judy ....JoAnn goes above and beyond always Greeting Everyone with a smile. Such a Team Player
I went to the Y this morning to inquire about Pickleball. JoAnn Pesce helped me and my guest with all rhat we needed to know to begin playing this sport. Not only was she extremely helpful at the entryway admissions/membership desk, she also came up to the pickle ball courts and helped us individually with some instruction during one of her breaks. She was informative, kind, extremely helpful, and encouraging as we were trying this activity for the first time. She has agreed to meet me next Thursday to help me with beginner instructions since she is off that day. What an exemplary employee you have in JoAnn!
Joanna helped me get a faulty combination lock removed from the men's locker room. Thank you, Joanna, so much for saving my morning.
A big not thank you to the other two working the front desk who told me I would need to take an Uber home, get my bolt cutters, and come back, because they clearly could not be bothered to help me. We'll be following up on this, don't worry.
Y is amazing. Employees are each one amazing!! Child care and front desk!!
Awesome experience every time! Friendly staff, community environment. Clean facility and very grateful for the daycare staff! Overall amazing place!!
Something for everyone
Love the availability of all the classes!
The step aerobic classes with Debi and Ashley are awesome!
Sweat room and the swimming pools.
Just wish yall would use one pool for swimming lessons not take up both. Cause we work and come in between working and then can't swim sometimes in either pool cause swimming lessons are going on in both pools the big pool the others are doing laps. So have to get out and I'm paying monthly membership to use the pool so expect to get to swim in ot when I come whatever time of day. So would be nice to have 1 pool opened for swimming lessons not both tied up for swimming lessons. Be nice if you turned up the heat in the pools too.
I like working out in the morning. Would like to request cleaner music to listen to. There is a ton of garbage played in the mornings
That you guys are truly family orientated.
Kids club is great!!
Activities for the whole family
I enjoy the Core and More classes as well as the Kettle Bell Classes. I hope to start using the leg machines upstairs very soon.
