Member Testimonials
Classes, staff, and instructors.
I love working out with equipment and the amazing temperament from most of members. The big three trainers really treat their clients special. I don’t take their training session but you can see always. The desk and Les are charming and welcoming.
I don’t take many classes but the regulars adore them. You can tell as they run to make sure they are on time.
The people are great
Lots of variety!
All cool stuff, but corporate is really bad with me and my membership. They changed my payment date for the second time to from the 15th to the 1rst. My payment date is supposed to be on the 15th, because Idon'tgetbpaid on the 1rst. So they changed it to the 1rst (for the second time) but I DON'T GET PAID ON THE FIRST, and I told them that in the very beginning, and I told them again the first time they changed it, but they STILL changed it AGIAN!!! Only this time, it cost me. So they changed my payment date trom the 15th to the 1rst, chsrged me an extra $30 because the payment bounced, wich then it caused a domino effect on my credit card, causing another $30 fee from somebody else, because I had exactly what I needed for the month. But because they CHANGED MY PAYMENT DATE THEN CHARGED ME $30 FOR PAYMENT REFUSED!!! HOW THE HECK IS THAT FAIR??? I asked if they could refund me, since it was their fault, but they didn't. WHAT KIND OF CRAP IS THAT????? Please postvthis publicly so that MAYBE they will help me out since they screwed me over
Good equipment, always very clean, exceptionally friendly staff.
Multiple programs and activities for all ages and ability groups.
I like the instructors
Friendly and well organized senior classes.
Open hours
Instructors and staff are very pleasant, very knowledgeable in what they are teaching and make it a fun experience.
I love Bonnie Judy & her water aerobics class!! I try to come in 30 minutes early for her class so I can use some of weight machines. I'm not always faithful to those but usually faithful to Bonnie's class.
Consistency and Fun!!
They are good.
I like the programs for seniors.
I like that the Y is a group of individuals like myself, older, but wa ting to stay healthy. Love all the classes especially Jan's aerobics dance class T/T/S at 9am. Also love Sherry's class because it's later in the day & incorporates dance, weights, balance & bands to peppy music. Appreciate all the equipment that's available & that we have a sauna which l us daily to rid toxins & extra sodium. Hope the steam room.will one day be up & running. The Venice Y is clean & tidy with less clutter now & that's appreciated. The only disappointment is the pickleball accommodations & program. Indoors is great because of the intense heat but availability is lacking. Have been a member for 11 years & come daily so love the Y!!!!
Great classes and teachers especially Elaine
The staff is helpful and friendly. Many individual classes are offered. Wellness is always promoted. It is clean and sanitary. It is close by my home.
I like the atmosphere and cleanliness of the gym. It feels like a safe and friendly environment. Everyone is polite and friendly and willing to share equipment. For a small town gym I think it very well equipped.
I love Pilates with Jamisue! She is encouraging and fun and it makes me want to exercise.
My sister and I are caregivers for our Mom. I love the pool though I’m not a swimmer. I can take advantage of the cardio-splash and aqua zumba classes from 8:45 am until 9:45 am. Sometimes, I come early and stay late with my goal being 460 minutes a week. The YMCA is a comfort zone.
A lot of different activities
Just use weights and cardio
Really need new treadmills or at least new belts in existing machines.
Mainly I just use the exercise equipment on the second floor as far as equipment exercise.
I do try to swim laps 2-3 times a week and the jacuzzi afterwards and then shower. The pool is a good temperature, the jacuzzi is clean and powerful. The showers get a lot of daily use but are kept pretty clean.
I also sign up for Leslie Carlson’s balance class which is well run and helps me.
I enjoy playing racquetball at the Venice location and work out at the Englewood branch.
People who work there are great
Facilities are clean and well kept
Over all we really enjoy the PG YMCA
Classes for older people
The machines are standard and quite satisfactory. The sauna is quite nice and the Jacuzzi is amazing!
It might be nice if the noisy room door was closed while everyone else is exercising, but that’s just minor. No biggie.
Only use the strength training equipment
Spin class is my main reason for YMCA membership. I usually take the 9 am class 5 to 6 times a week.
