Member Testimonials
I like the instructors Leanne, Barb and Steve. I like the location. I like that I’ve developed friendships through my classes.
I like the pool activities at this time. I am going to be going into the gym learning the machines and I will be going to Pickleball when it comes back in season for the rotation.
Exercise classes in the mornings
Friendships, although you might turn the coffee TV to Spectrum (channel 9). Until after election. Some of the members get a little overwhelmed expressing their opinions regarding candidates.
Fitness and Pickleball
Love the convenient times of various classes. The instructors are friendly and encouraging !
Donna for swim is amazing with kids
I like the adult classes. I like that you maintain separate restrooms for makes and females . I like friendly staff.
I do wish you had more classes downstairs for those of us who cannot walk upstairs .
I do wish you had more chair yoga classes, especially during "season," when parking is difficult.
Would like to see more programs in evenings and weekends for us working members
Enjoy the swimming and summer camp program saved the day
Great facility, lots to do for people of all ages.
Pool!
Programs
professional and courteous staff
I primarily like and use the pool classes and the yoga classes. I would love to see more skilled instructors for the pool. And to have instructors, period! Each summer especially, there are weeks and weeks with NO instructor available at all. I would like the Y to better coordinate their time off and assure coverage for the classes. These are paid memberships and paid instructors.
Yoga.....need more instructors. A few are absolutely great and I feel those classes are so beneficial to health. However, again....when there is a "substitute", the leadership is missing. We are asked "What do you do next" etc and the class is usually over after about 30 min for a 60 min class,,,,,,,,very little benefit.
Please continue in your search for instructors. Us "older folks" REALLY want and NEED to use these classes for our health!! We do appreciate you.
Enjoy the classes, staff nice and friendly. Although not a huge fan of the tvs on the equipment. The volume isn't great, sometimes satellite is out.

Love your yoga classes, Kathy especially.
I just attend the gym. I find it clean and I enjoy my workouts.
I like the availability of evening water aerobics since I work during the day. It would be great if you could add classes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday as well.
Great swimming pool and staff
I enjoy the exercise classes that are Available for seniors. At an advanced age, we really need classes like these to help us keep up with our every day activities.
Instructors excellent
I only go during the winter months while in town. Nice atmosphere, I like being left alone to do my workouts.
Nice place
I love coming to the Y on 59th St W in Bradenton. The atmosphere is family oriented and the staff is always friendly.
I have been letting people know that the Y is a good place to get fit, and without the noise and agitation of other brand name gyms.
Every time we go the Y we leave energized and feeling great!
