Lots of variety
Tom is a great instructor! T-W 9:00
Fine facility.
Good equipment.
Qualified instructors.
Pleasant atmosphere.
Clean.
I love the variety this branch offers. Tons of equipment and classes. Love it. The staff is professional and kind every time.
One thing I would change is related to the classes. I find that many of the instructors seem to be going through the motions. It would be nice to see and hear enthusiasm. Create energy. Be engaging. This ain’t all instructors. Just some. But many classes seem a bit boring. Energy and enthusiasm is what brings people back.
Variety of equipment
Clean pool well maintained and operated
Excellent client service—shoutout to Kyle Ziegler and to Helen in Aquatics
As a senior you offer few classes that are very important for seniors stretching, movements, balance and building strength .
I also signed up for Pilates Reformers classes but having only 5 of the reformers bed is not easy to get to classes they’re always full, so I paid for something I can’t use .
Pilates Reformers classes are very important for those of us that can’t lay on the floor for different health issues, and now is even popular on younger people because of it’s benefits.
I believe we need more beds and a bigger room, the beginners class is always full is a program that needs to look into .
Thank you 🙏🏼 for always hearing our feedback and making our YMCA in Venice the own we are proud too participate and be a member.

Kelly Lindh was so thorough and welcoming and genuinely interested in learning why I joined the Y and making sure I knew all about the services and setting me up with the best personal trainer for my needs. Marcia is such a pleasure to know as well and I will look forward to upcoming sessions with her.
Every Instructor loves what they do, it pours out of them , creating our exercise time there fun and meaningful. The people in the gym and classes are eager to learn while enjoying all the moves and techniques (new and old). Big bonus as well is seeing the results on our own bodies and in our health. The group class schedule has many choices every hour on the hour. If you’re you’re not up for doing one of the weight classes, you can go to a spin class , you can do a Pilates class or a yoga class. You can do the free weights, you can do racquetball, you can walk the indoor track. Are you exhausted yet I hope not -availabilities at the Potter Park YMCA continue through almost the whole day and evening. This gym is excellent in more ways than what I just named. Come check it out.
I only work out but would love to join many classes but intimidating. Not sure how to go about and not sure if I would embarrass myself.
Love the facility.
Please repair your parking lot. There are pot holes everywhere. It’s like driving in an obstacle course, wears on tires. This is an ongoing issue.
I like the Les Mills classes and the gym
I love the cardio drumming, zumba w/David, Liz R & Tricia. So much fun!!!
New equipment and all the instructors are amazing especially body pump.
Don’t use any but I love the work out/weight room
Wide variety of classes and times
I enjoy the classes. Everyone is upbeat.
