Member Testimonials
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.
The gym and sauna
Something for everyone! From pickleball to chair fitness, Parkinson’s classes, aqua, group fitness to weight lifting - every member can exercise and enjoy their interests.
Like the pickle ball coach and players.
Friendly atmosphere
Lots of options
YMCA offers a wide variety of classes and activities. My yoga instructor is friendly and encouraging. The classes are a lot of fun.
I love my 11 o’clock class with Leez and am sorry when I can’t attend.
The Y has given me the opportunity to meet like minded people who want to take care of their bodies and it was one of the first things I did when I moved to Fort Myers 10 years ago.
I am 95 now and different things come in the way of my attending, but there’s no question that my body knows when I miss!

i only have one HUGE concern!! the group class body pump instructors other than steve scream in the headset so many people say it hurts there ears it’s not healthy and causes damage to the ear drum even people have the noise level registered on there devices as damaging i don’t understand why this is not monitored i wear ear plugs as do others but for a highly used health club you would think they look into this important matter of saving hearing! hearing loss is no fun when it can be prevented please look into
this!! it’s sooo unnecessary!! the music is loud enough but the instructors shouldn’t scream over the top of it!!!
