Zumba, body balance, dance fit, shed, I would love to try the body pump but can never get into the class. I believe you should offer it more often.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Zumba is my favorite and I wish there were more classes each week and at more convenient times. A 8:00 or 9:00 class would not break up the day like 11:00 does.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

The Y is close to our home about 8 minutes away. You offer a variety of activities for seniors. I bought our daughter a massage of her choice at the Y of which she and her family are members. I wanted a personal trainer that would be cheerful, knowledgeable, encouraging, patient, kind & caring. I was blessed to find the perfect one at the Y. Her name is Marcia. She is all the above and more! The Y is indeed blessed because of her. She makes me feel so special. After our first workout, she later sent me a text to check on me! So sweet! It’s the employees that make a company great. You can have all of the workout machines in the world, but it’s the employees who actually represent the company in a positive or negative way that will determine whether people will come back or not. Its employees like Marcia that make a company great! I’m looking forward to coming back for my weekly training sessions with Marcia. She specifically designed a really good workout routine just for me! I’m off to a good start at 75!
