What do you like about our programs and activities?

We joined the Y a few years ago. It has everything we need to get our exercise complete and since it was turned over to the Y there have been several up grades. I always tell people that the Y has something for everyone.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Every day senior classes Monday to Friday
Leez gives the most options I have ever seen in any Y
She always adapts with the chair

Mary is a great dance instructor and I love to dance
but some people do not. I think it should be listed on your website as just dance and not senior cardio etc
Unfortunately Mary doesn’t adapt with a chair .

What do you like about our programs and activities?

The variety of group activities and the variety of strength and cardio machines is amazing. I love the pool and a lap lane is either available or open in just a few minutes. The instructors I have encountered are also excellent. And I would say since Covid, everything is cleaner.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

An excellent variety of classes. The instructors are friendly; directions and suggestions on how to make the most of each class are offered. The equipment (mats, weights & blocks) - available and provided by the Y. The Wellness Center has a complete and challenging array of machines. The people at the front desk are knowledgable and always ready with a "hello". Donna's craft classes are fun. The restrooms are clean and well maintained.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I only go to the Y for the body pump classes, but the app is so glitchy you don’t know whether you’re going to get in. You have to hit reserve multiple times.

Would give 10:10 if you didn’t keep raising prices.

The rock climbing wall needs mats on the ground when children are climbing. Not safe to have bare concrete floors under them. Have told staff multiple times.

I had a shoulder replacement and the variety of and high end weight circuit training is mandatory for keeping my shoulder strong. It is a bridge from physical therapy to having the shoulder as strong as possible.
