Member Testimonials
I don’t really participate in those so I have no opinion
Long open hrs and wide variety of gym equipment and the lap pool
Wide variety. Still hoping for some additional group fitness classes on weekends
Great place to play Raquetball. Some suggestions:
1. Sweep n clean floors in courts on a regular basis. Often they are extremely dusty n slippery. Very dangerous for players.
2. Repair walls, n lights correctly.
3. Keep AC in good working condition.
Staff at facilities are always friendly, supportive,and helpful. Glad to be a member of this community.
Such a wide range of activities.
Starts and ends on time
Varied , for all interests & abilities
Knowledgeable staff, camaraderie of group classes
I’m enjoying the community in the classes. Carol’s swim class and Gina’s Tai Chi are highlights of my week.
I feel so refreshed after the movement and look forward to the next week. Also, pickleball is just what I need for a challenge!
Classes with Julie,Alison in the pool
And the primetime,sit and Fit,body pump,etc
I like all the nice people.
Weights
I do my own thing but appreciate all the classes the Y has to offer. However, I would appreciate if certain members didn’t use the Y for their political agenda i.e. wearing Trump T-shirts Trump hats, flags on their heads, etc. They are disruptive.
I love the open hours and the friendly staff.
My husband and I joined the Y recently. We are in love with the Palmer Ranch YMCA. Here are a few of our favorite things…the indoor walking track…the atmosphere…appreciate that music is not blasting loudly. There can be many people at the Y at one time and it’s nice and spacious so there’s plenty of room for everyone. I tremendously enjoy the yoga class offerings and like that they are included in my Y membership. Also, with our busy schedules we take advantage of the extended hours. And we really appreciate the friendly staff upon entering. Thumbs up all around. Thank you.
Variety of options! I play pickle ball 3x’s a week, yoga 3x a week and prime time 1x.
I do think a better review would include “what you don’t like or what needs improvement!’
Friendly staff
The ease of coming
You have a great welcoming variety of classes! But also I can just put my earbuds in and walk the track if I want peace!!!
The aqua programs.
I take a water aerobics class six days a week. I’ve never done anything else in the gym at all. If it weren’t for the water classes, I wouldn’t be a member.
The help is friendly and do their jobs . The facilities are clean and kept up. And at the moment not crowded,so much as to make going there unpleasant.
Swimming, workout machines, hot tub
Facility is the most well rounded in Sarasota. Add a cold plunge and you’ll have it all.
Classes!
