Thank you
The instructors are very knowledgeable and supportive of helping me to meet my goals. There is a good variety of programs and as the membership returns it is clear the Y is adding more options.
It is great for families with kids
I just joined last week. The staff are outstanding.
Very helpful and friendly staff.
I really appreciate the friendly staff who greet us when we arrive. I like the new cafeteria that serves wholesome tasty food. The Y is kept very clean and you are continually updating it with new equipment in the workout rooms. You gear the fitness classes to meet every age level and introduce new activities that are in vouge now. One example being Pickle Ball.
I like the new paint job you did during COVID it brightens up the building. I appreciate all the extra work you have had to do to meet the needs of our homeless population during the pandemic. Keep up the good work!
The swim teachers are SO GOOD with the kids. Ely is INCREDIBLE!

I like the Aquafit programs and the pool. Staff are friendly and helpful!
I like how I’m not judged on my lack of experience.
Family membership, variety of excercise programs for all of us.
I’ve only used the pool and take my Grandaughter to the treehouse to play but both are clean and fun to use. The Chang rooms are clean and provide all the necessities for a great swimming experience.
There is always someone available to help you with anything you may need
It's good place! the staff is very friendly and helpful! Thank you for being!
I like the weights and cardio machines so far. Doug on the front desk was very helpful in getting everything set up with my membership. He always remembers me and says hello. It is really nice to have the small town feel where the staff know who you are rather than being another membership number.
I liked the learn to swim program a lot. It really helped my kids get over their fear of the water. I also loved the enthusiasm of the learn to swim instructors, they are so great with the kids!
My son love all the programs he participate. He can meet more people. The programs can also build up his confidence.
The instructor was very patient and accommodating.
Greetings, Centre YMCA! Yes, I would recommend the Y to friends. I've been participating in aqua fit for a few years and the benefits are awesome. I have a condition for which medication is often prescribed and yet, by going to the pool I'm able to forego it along with its undesirable side effects. What could be better! I remain hopeful that the small pool will be repaired so that I can enjoy warmer water. Still, I'm grateful for the larger pool. The physiotherapist recommended that I use the bicycle in addition to water. I have used the bicycle, and will set up an appointment to learn how to use other equipment as well, safely. I'd like to see the YMCA declared an essential service!
Y Thrive is a great way to get someone going after a period of time of inactivity. Easy to follow, with great instruction from a coach.
I use the resistance training equipment and it's everything I need.
It's great that a swim membership now includes plus changeroom.
I like that swimming lessons are included in my membership. I like the variety of classes, that the weight room has a lot of space, and a lot of equipment. I love that you are centrally located, with a diverse customer base, and within walking or biking distance for a good number of people in London. I think it is fantastic that you have evening programs (maybe Fridays?) for local youth (at least before covid, not sure if you do that again yet). Overall, I am just really impressed with the location, the staff, and the programs and activities.

Wish Tai Chi and a dance programme like Nia were offered though.
