Member Testimonials
There are sooo many! Lots of variety & choices too!
I especially love the water aerobics classes, the expressive arts/drumming class, and my absolute favorite is the Lunch & Learns! Hats off to all the instructors & Cynthia Munoz! ❣️
Group classes
Convenient to my house, clean and respectable group of members
Fun group classes
Lots of yoga with different teachers and at different times.
They keep me motivated...
We've only used the pool up to down and joined because we wanted more water during the winter months that has not always been the case we were told it would be 82 all year round and there were days where it was practically 76 Fahrenheit but all in all we enjoy it however I have made multiple requests comments and asked someone to look into how the YMCA in Venice can find a way to link the freedom health care benefits prepaid card which is a MasterCard to be used at the facility since the YMCA in Bradenton is allowing it directly but not Venice not sure why this has not been made possible since we have already been no on our second year with the YMCA Venice and need to ask every month for the bill to submit it for a refund with our nation's benefits if somebody could look into that that would be great thank you
I have never done a program or activity. I just use the weight room, pool, and steam room.
The variety of classes
I enjoy both the silver sneaker programs and the flexibility to go between the two. I like the friendliness of the commons area and the socializing that occurs. Parking is great. The staff is helpful.
Variety of classes. Instructors who realize how that they are mostly teaching the older generation
Stanene does a great job with Active Older Adults and Chair Yoga. My favorite.
I still enjoy trying to keep up with Debbie her Zumba classes. Fun and a good workout. I tried her cardio drumming and enjoyed that as well.
Just wish they were offered more times. Middle of day can be a challenge, but I can usually work around.
Diversity of programming. Strength and conditioning area

I love the classes provided. Good amount of machines to use. The class instructors are all great & qualified. I like that the Y is clean and not too cluttered. It's great to have massages & red lite therapy available on site.i especially enjoy being surrounded by people my same age.
Only 2 disappiintments: 1) Pickleball and 2) no Tai Chi classes available.

I enjoy the group fitness classes. I’m glad a few are after work hours so I can attend. Pilates Mat and Zumba are fun.

Variety is good,
Barbara is a great instructor. She makes every single class feel special and she’s been at the Y for a long time.
I love the body pump classes.
The downfall for me and my friends is the price. Wish you offered silver sneakers or at least a discount for sensors. Thanks.

The attendant was exceptionally helpful, knowledgeable, and pleasant.
