Equipment
+ The instructors at the Englewood YMCA are really top-notch.
+ The Front Desk staff is very pleasant and helpful - especially Stephanie. She always has a welcoming smile and a greeting for everyone.
+ Your membership director Lucy it’s always around doing a little of everything and helping everyone from the members to the other staff.
+ Your yoga instructor Audrey is amazing. I’ve lived in many large cities across the country and I can’t say I’ve met anyone better.
The Englewood YMCA is a great place. If I had one area to encourage you on, it would be that you may need more maintenance and housekeeping hours..
Thank you for all you do to make the Englewood YMCA a great place.
Englewood gym setup works well, good selection of weights and equipment. Cardio equipment is also adequate.
Indoor pickleball is a significant draw, excellent option for using the courts which seem to be unused quite a bit.
Group classes are well
Structured.
They are age-appropriate! Something for everyone!

Youth sports And also experience for adults
I attend mostly an exercise class three times weekly. It's an effort sometimes to get to the
Y, but on completion of the class I feel great.
Then, there is the water aerobics class. I was very fond of that. There is great diversity present
and the class offerings are fantastic.
I love the new equipment and weights.
Great gym. I have been a member off and on for nearly 30 years.
I wish that you would bring the towels back.
I was visiting a Y in Boise Idaho and they continue to supply towels. It is a nice convenience, even if there is an upcharge.
Water exercises
I play pickleball 3 or 4 times each week. The courts and nets and such are very good which supports the game. The staff is exceptional in their friendliness, helpfulness and professionalism. I also like the free coffee which makes me feel a bit of ownership, like I'm at home. The other players are a fine group of people so playing pickleball with them provides many happy hours of social contact and sportsmanship.
Variety and the friendly and patient staff
The wight room has been updated, staff is very kind and helpful
They are focused to older adults
Love the group classes and all the exercise equipment. Jan, Janet, and Christine are the best instructors. Feels like a neighborhood YMCA.
The many programs at various times
The great variety of options, the inclusion of all age ranges, the welcoming atmosphere, the smiling and helpful faces at the desk, the non- judgemental welcoming of people with every physical challenge. I wouldn't trade the Sarasota City YMCA for any other gym anywhere.
