What do you like about our programs and activities?

I love the variety of opportunities to exercise, etc. The instructors have all been excellent, as well as helpful to a newcomer.
Only concern is that the classes that have a pre registration limit (which I appreciate and understand) often don’t adhere to the limit, making the room over crowded.
In general, thank you for all you do.
It has been a terrific experience so far…..

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I use only the large equipment room and the men’s shower room.
As for the large equipment room, I enjoy the space in general. It gives people lots of options and a feeling of not being overly crowded.
There always seem to be a few aerobic equipment items in need of repair, but people seem to find alternatives. The two identical stair climb machines are excellent.
The men’s locker/shower is good. On occasion (more so on a Monday morning) some of the soap dispensers are in need of a new soap bag. At shower #1 there seems to be mold up close to the ceiling. Perhaps some bleach-water mix sprayed on it would zap it.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

The Y offers a variety of exercise classes with trained, caring instructors who explain the benefits of the movements. They provide modifications for each exercise based on body limitations (eg. joint surgeries). The instructors are highly motivating and supportive, giving individual attention throughout the class. Classes are suited for beginner, intermediate and advanced skill levels, with modifications for each level. The Y provides all necessary equipment in a safe environment. I love the program,

I just use the weights. It gets crowded in the mornings, especially in season, but with a good selection of machines and free weights, I can always get a good workout.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I'm glad a functional fitness section - air bike, ski erg, boxes, etc.- was added to the gym. This is consistent with the direction many gyms are headed. It's good to know the Y is staying current with fitness trends!

Also, I appreciate the clean workout area, large size, and extent of equipment provided.
