I love the fitness center, (it's never crowded when I go), my wife does the group yoga and loves it.
Variety of courses. Varied age groups.
Educated, competent instructors.
Excellent variety of available options. Diverse offerings of group exercise classes. Outstanding, experienced instructors.
Friendly, family atmosphere.
Safe and clean.
Well organized.
Professional and friendly staff.
Enjoy water aerobics and other programs for over 55 adults. Sad that you are not bringing back senior center.
First and foremost, the heated indoor pool is great, along with the staff. I use it for my arthritis therapy and cardio workout. Also, the front desk staff is quite professional and kind. Individuals, such as, Sue, Tamara, Lisa, and Cynthia are standouts. In the pool, Emma and Sydney are awesome. Finally, it would be very nice if the pool went back to 9:00 pm closing and open on Sundays. Thank you.
I go there to swim and it's very user friendly and staff is very helpful and knows everyone's name
Hello, I use the Olympic pool M-W-F at the Bradenton Y. I enjoy making a reservation for a single lane for just myself. ( I’m not bumping into anyone lol ) Everything is so clean at the Bradenton Y! And the whole staff are friendly and cautious.
In my opinion,-
“I do believe everyone should make a reservation reserving a lane for each time attending.
I believe no changes should be made to the way signing up is done. Even after the Covid epidemic is over. My suggestion is two or three lanes should be opened every hour to anyone swimming anytime.
I believe if a member takes the time to make a reservation they should be rewarded. Thank you for all you do. Marta Belle

West Bradenton has a wide variety of classes to choose from & availability is good at this location.
The social aspect.
I like the variety of programs at the Y. Currently I only do Water Aerobics, I think that is best at my age. In the past I have done many other classes as well as the Fitness center. My husband uses the fitness center.
Everyone is friendly & helpful
Swim lap lane reservations
I love the YMCA. It’s very family oriented. I love the people as well
Love yoga with Barb, love Pilates/Barre with Leanne, love doing personal training with Leanne. Don’t love the facility so much, getting out of date, small rooms, no light. Luckily currently there are good instructors who make us happy ant to continue to be part of the Y. Also love Cynthia and Georgia.
Everyone there does a great job, very friendly.
I do a few classes a week and the instructors work very hard at what they do.
A good fit for me.
I so support the Y because they serve so many populations. I believe in their core philosophies. I feel supported and valued at the Y.
At a time that works for me. Love the instructors. The classes are challenging.

I like the variety of things to do. The only (not really) complaint I have is I wish there were more. There are a wide range of different options.
