Member Testimonials
Instructors and classes are awesome! Staff is so nice and helpful! I would definitely recommend Bradenton YMCA to anyone looking for a safe, friendly, place to workout!
My kids like to go there to play basketball everyone is really nice .
I like the instructors. Sorry Barb is no longer doing chair yoga. June is wonderful for both water aerobics and the arthritis class.
Group exercise classes, pickleball
Everything!
The gym could use considerably better lighting. There seem to be no vending machines and the one water bottle station rarely works. Other than that, the fitness center looks good, though I mainly use the Y for pickleball. Wish there was some evening or weekend pickleball options.

I enjoy my workouts at the Y
Group classes, instructors, cleanliness
I liked the squat racks. It wasn't crowded. Venice needs a squat rack like that and you have 2 which were never used much.
Love pickle ball and the exercise room
Time of day, variety, instructors and that they are included in monthly fees.
the mens dressing room could use a sauna..
I like the diversity of the different programs and activities. The kind people make it an even more enjoyable experience. Thank you.
Stationary bike.
Love the water classes
Pool and fitness room. Friendly staff.
Large, spacious and underutilized. Perfect for people who don’t want to compete for equipment or space.

I live the yoga classes on Tuesday and Thursday with Barb. She is excellent. I enjoy water aerobics on M, W and F with Janet and June. I like the machine for weights. But the thing that’s most important is the friendliness of the staff.
