What do you like about our programs and activities?

Love the exercises machines and really love the pool, the pool crew and how the new pool management is keeping the pool in excellent conditions. I've been a member for more than 30 years and this phase is the better pool cleanest it ever been. One note: need to add two more swimming lanes on the left side of the pool. Thanks YMCA.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I like the nice variety of morning classes. I like that most (but not all) of the instructors give you varying degrees of difficulty so those of us just starting out can still exercise with the class. :) I’d like to see photos and descriptions of the personal trainers and what their approaches or specialty areas are so I could choose a good fit. I’d like to see paper cups instead of styrofoam at the coffee kiosk. Thanks!

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Punta Gorda Y does a wonderful job fitting our aging community with classes that work for all levels. My mom has had so much improvement in balance and mobility with classes at the Y! I love that there are classes at the nearby church, a closer option for me with my Y instructors.
