Member Testimonials
I like the Aquafit classes, particularly the one on Wednesday at noon. The instructor (Taylor?) is excellent. He has a great playlist and offers an energetic routine. Actually,, is there any reason why there could not be noon classes everyday. For myself in particular, this is an especially good time. I have attended the noon class on Tuesday but don't enjoy it nearly as much. If there any way we could get Taylor to come in everyday?????
classes are awesome!
The YMCA has a great community with staff and members acting respectfully and supporting each another. The swimming pool is fantastic and a fine option for swimming, classes or water walking. There are many different yoga classes offered too! I recommend the Y as an ideal place to get fit and interact with others in the community.
Always clean. Love the weigh room and the pool
I love the main fitness room with it's neighbourly feel. I always feel welcome in that space. The group fitness and yoga classes are inviting and energizing. I haven't tried aqua fitness classes, but have noticed a lot of people really enjoy that. Three things I especially like about Centre Branch Y: having a small gym in the women's changing room for women who prefer to workout in a more private area, having access to a steam room, and especially the dry sauna!
Something for everyone!
The Centre Branch Y is within walking distance of where I live. I see that more activities are available such as water walking and gentle aquafit. I plan to take advantage of these activities soon. The yoga and guided meditation classes are good. As my strength improves, I will try other classes.
In partnership with the cancer support group at Wellspring, the overall program covers a broad spectrum of needs for mental, social and physical wellbeing. Without exception, all personnel and volunteers excel at creating a wonderful experience at the 'Y'.
I only use the weight room....fur strength training.....it has what I need

I love playing pickel ball on Mondays and Wednesday afternoon. I like that there is a jacuzi in the women's plus changeroom with a sunna and steam room.
The openness and friendliness of staff is great. The upstairs gym is perfect.
The gentle, relaxing classes at Centre Branch such as Chair Yoga and Meditation are helpful for calming and grounding the hectic energies of downtown London.
As well; This is somewhat of a new paradigm for music, but I suggest converting the music in the gym to 432Hz because it's a sound frequency that is better for healing the body. Try 432hz.live for high energy streaming radio as well as relaxing tracks and many other worldwide broadcasts. I've also been producing music in 432Hz (artist name, AirieLynn on SoundCloud) for a few years. Thanks so much :) Erica Joseph

Variety of programs and schedules is excellent
All the instructors are knowledgeable and helpful. Classes are enjoyable and there is a strong sense of community in all classes at the Y
Hi honestly, I don't really know much yet as I haven't been able to participate as of yet! I do though like what I see of the facilities though. I plan on spending more time and participating in programs in the near future. Thanks
Squash programming is coming along. Hoping to see court upgrades along the way.
I haven't tried the programs but I enjoy swimming laps.
I was a member a few years ago and I just returned last week.
I remember the gym machines were really good. I might try
them again at some point. I used to like the rowing machine.
Eventually I might try one of the programs.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Is very nice good service
Great classes, open squash courts, and nice facilities!
Pros:
Aquatics Leadership Program
Swimming Pool
Cons:
I'm not impressed with issues related to personal safety, particularly at night, related to the City Of London's lack of will to find compassionate, effective solutions to the homeless crisis. The City Of Houston, Texas made a difference - why can't London?
Great staff and volunteers! Group fitness instructors always make classes fun and challenging in an inclusive and supportive environment
Lots of room to work out, cause i have excity can't work when its busy
