Variety
I love group fitness. The quality instructors, multiple classes and times is the thing I like best about my Y.
Machines, free weights & pool
Great facility!!!
The workout area has plenty of equipment and room.
The Venice YMCA has been integral to our family finding a community after moving to Florida 2 years ago. It feels like home to all of us now.
Something for everyone!
I mainly use the gym, but I'M impressed by all the classes that have a big number of participants.
I love my Y
I like the Zumba Gold,it would be great if there was a class on Fridays also like there used to be. Also use the fitness room, it would be nice to put up some signs telling people not to just sit at the machines looking at their phones. As other people want to use it also. Thanks
Love body pump . Great instructors .
Good variety of classes & instructors!
I’ve talked to others in my Active Older Adults Class and they all agree — they really like that our current instructor is constantly instructing on the muscle groups we are working on and why, she provides options if you need them and varies the routine from session to session so it never becomes boring. She is so enthusiastic - it’s encouraging!
Love my 4:00 Pilates class with Jamisue! I do wish the time was earlier in the day. She is wonderful!
It offers so many classes. The front desk is always so helpful
Stanene is an excellent instructor. I feel more strength with her than with equipment. Rick’s enthusiasm is contagious.
