Member Testimonials
I like that the instructors have been very thoughtful and patient with my daughter. She loves to attend the swim classes.
My son took his first swimming lessons and loved it. His teacher was helpful, enthusiastic, and encouraging. Overall, we had great experience.
The program and activities are fun and exciting for the kids. The field trips are a great for the summer program as well.
We just moved to the area and was looking for childcare for our three children. I was very nervous after having a horrible experience at the ymca at our last base. Mrs. Tyler was so sweet! She made us feel so welcome and answered all of my questions. My kids have had a blast at camp this week. They have told us about all the games they get to play, the crafts, and even getting to swim in the pool. They come home absolutely exhausted ready for bed so they can come back the next day! I am so thankful for your camp program, and so thankful that Mrs Tyler made my children and I feel welcomed!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that my child enjoys coming to camp every day. He looks forward to the daily interaction. I love that when he has encountered issues with other children, the counselors hear him out and assist in the situation. I also LOVE that you can pay for camp on a week by week basis. Most of all, love the courtesy of each front desk employee and counselor. Every question or concern I’ve had has been addreseds in a timely and professional manner. This center has made a very positive impact on my decision for future use. Thank you!
Great times and great instructors
Everything
Swimming and exercise for the kids.
The 2024 summer camp just seems more organized. I also like the field trips which break up the week and add excitement to going to camp.
Staff very attentive and facilities maintained. Positive atmosphere
This place is awesome! Everything you could expect and more. The gym, the pool, the whole facility and the Staff Expecially, the staff working there is AMAZING and helpful!
I like the private swim instruction's. We’ve had Hailey every time. She’s patient, kind and sweet. I’m glad you guys matched her with my children.
Everyone from the front desk to the lifeguards and even the guys cleaning up the locker rooms are excellent.It is so refreshing to know that I can come into a nice clean facility that is run by Christians and get a workout in,take a shower and then go home daily.I sure do appreciate everyone at the Pensacola YMCA,you all are the best.
Friendly staff, clean facilities, & great classes.
All the staff are super nice and the equipment is very nice! I enjoy going to the Y everyday!
I like the variety of programs offered, and even though I’ve not experienced all of the things yet, I definitely look forward to becoming a more active participant going forward.
The variety
Water Aerobics
The gym, the pool for my kids the time it’s open, and all of the ladies that work there are very polite. They so so great. Thank you.
I love the availability of open swimming as well as water aerobics. I'm a senior with back issues and the pool offers the resistance that I need in exercises to stay healthy in a safe way as far as protecting my back from injury.
Water aerobics MWF.
Laurie is a fun and energetic instructor.
awesome pool, staff are so friendly inside and outside of the building. looking forward to the updated facility. please continue to offer swim lessons as many families in this area do not have a pool and rely on programs offered by the YMCA to get their children trained to swim. if the navarre and pensacola ymca's didn't exist, I'm not sure how i would've gotten my children trained outside of taking them to the beach myself!
I love that yall have something for everyone at a reasonable price.
Love how friendly and accommodating the staff are! My daughter is having a blast and loves all the activities and field trips.
Really enjoy the gym and pool.
The flexible schedules of the classes and the variety of classes. My experience so far with the class leaders/instructors has been positive. They have been welcoming and helpful since it has been my first time attending an organized exercise class.
Pool
The front office staff like Victor and Edward…Alayna is a superb , qualified yoga instructor, as well..my favorite.
