What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love the classes that Anissa teaches. Active older adults. I just want to let you know how wonderful she is as an instructor. She consistently brings great energy, kindness, and encouragement to every class. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and it shows in the way she teaches and connects with everyone.

Her classes are a highlight of the week for so many of us — fun, motivating, and welcoming. She goes above and beyond. Love her!

What do you like about our programs and activities?

There is something for everyone…all ages and fitness levels. Beautiful and clean facilities.
Varied classes w different time schedules to accommodate work and family schedules. Beautiful pool even though I do not use it. Friendly and efficient staff. The availability of personal trainers. Having a sauna. Providing opportunities for fitness and wellness among youth.
Community outreach to help fund opportunities for all children is admired. Annual gala and golf tournament help make it a special place.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Other than the one class I attend twice a week - Water in Motion with Jackie C, I have not really made any use of the facility. However, the one class I do take I enjoy thoroughly and would greatly miss it if I weren’t able to attend.
It is possible, as time goes on, that I will use the Y more extensively.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

There is a program/activity for everyone. I was especially excited to see that you have Les Mills classes especially body pump. A lot of different times that programs are offered makes it very convenient. The instructors for the classes are excellent, and all of your staff are very friendly and helpful. I look forward to trying some of the other classes that I haven’t as of yet.
