Member Testimonials
Something for everyone! Excellent trainers and staff!
Working with a personal trainer has enabled me to safely work towards my goals, while learning how to correctly set the machines up to for my needs. Kelvin Bowden is nothing short of outstanding. He is extremely professional, while being equally supportive, motivating and friendly. His first-hand knowledge of every muscle in the human body is amazing. What I have learned under his guidance will serve me well as I continue on my own.
I go to one of your personal trainers at Ragsdale YMCA , Christine. She is wonderful.
She takes the time to hear your stories about what you can and can not do physically . She sets up a program just for you. I go to her twice a week and we do all the exercises I can do. She was recommend to me by a neighbor and I will do the same. She is very professional and knowledgeable and I enjoy my workouts now (something I usually didn't like)
I was treated with respect for my individual needs. The trainer was positive and encouraging. I did get stronger and more flexible. My balance improved.
The qualified instructors. And cleanliness of facility.
Instructier is great
Friendly fun. Very interactive
They’re inclusive & the instructor made me feel comfortable.
As a participant I loved the class. I’d had spinal fusion in April and though I couldn’t stand or bend during class I was able to stand on my knees and adapt exercises to benefit me. My balance and strength improved. As an employee who works in the Wellness Center I told whoever I could about the class especially during tours of the Y.
Pool is very clean, Deb who does Silver Sneakers aqua aerobics on Wed. is good teacher. But SS app doesn't have Ragsdale Y down as offering this class.
Most staff very friendly except occasional young woman at check-in seems to be always on her phone looking down. Jessica who does SS yoga on Wed. also very good.

Our kids enjoy the sports activities they can join. We've done basketball and flag football and soccer. I love swimming laps. The lifeguards are friendly and it's never too busy. It would be nice to have the pool a few degrees warmer...
