Our YMCA Instructors are the best. They are very caring and I like the fact that if I'm doing an exercise wrong I get corrected.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

The YMCA gives senior citizens a place to go to excercise plus meet new friends in the process, people young and old leave feeling good about themselves, thats what the Y is all about, its such a positive place to hang out, the people who volunteer are very helpful in showing people how to use the gym equipment and what eqipment is best to meet their goal, the Y has something for everyone, I am so happy to be a part of it, thank you

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Many great improvements in the Y recently.

I just have one thing to point out. We have a TRX class at 7:15 on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. There is a Yoga class following our classes. The TRX class is a "paying" class. Yoga is not. Yoga starts at 8. Therefore we have to leave TRX early.
If possible, could Yoga start at 8:05 or 8:10. It ends at 8:45 and the next class doesn't start until 9 So, they have more time for change-over.
We often have to cut our stretching time at the end short.

Just something to consider.
Thank you

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Good classes for people over 65.
In the summer, the YMCA pool is a good temperature for swimming laps. Most other pools are 88-90 degrees, which is too hot for exercising in.
Friendly employees.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love the classes. Forever Fit with Jan is my favorite, but the class at 70 ppl is too crowded. I love signing up online so easy. I really like some of the other classes such as Strength Explosion and Stretch and Fit as well. Times do not always work for me though.
