Member Testimonials
I love the commitment to serve all members of the community. I understand that finances are tight, but there has to be a solution to the almost constant breaking down of equipment, not to mention the pool.
Good community. Programs are well covered across ages and skill level. Don't give up on the centre branch! People are moving downtown.
I have a complimentary membership right now, but am a past YMCA member with my family when my children were younger. I love the Y's programming for younger children, childcare for parents to workout, and spin classes and squash courts. I love that Y is downtown, has 2 pools (when working) and the lovely 'plus' changerooms that are quiet with a few extras in them (again, when working). I know that the facilities are aging and that the hours are reduced since re-opening after COVID, but I hope that it can remain a viable option for Londoners, as the other fitness options with the same facilities are a long drive from the downtown and central areas (Old South, Old North). The staff met recently were super friendly and helpful as well.
It has been the number 1 Health Club to me for a very long time. Thankyou
Big gym!
I live in Japan and gyms in Japan are small.
YMCA is very big with a lot of different equipment
Some of them I never seen in japanese gym. Thank you for letting me use .
I enjoy the fellowship of the members and have made life long friendships through the Y.
The instructors are dedicated and talented in their unique ways.
The Y is so much more than a gym. It's a lifestyle. A healthy lifestyle!

Group Active and Centergy
I love the water activities and the women's plus area with lockers, sauna, steam room and beautiful hot tub. The aqua fit instructors are amazing!
They have a lot of activities to offer.
The Y offers everything my family wants and is a really happy, friendly, fun place to be.
I have been a volunteer at Wellspring for over 10 years - I really appreciate being able to play pickleball at the Y for no extra charge!
Those are really good, I have been learning a lot about Canada, me and cultures
So far, I’ve only played Pickleball, the people there have been inviting and helpful. The level of play is great.
The front desk staff has been welcoming and very, very helpful. I have been using a two week complementary pass and I do intend on taking out a member membership. Thank you.
The best atmosphere of all the Ys - caring, smiling, helpful staff and thorough, knowledgeable and encouraging group instructors.
We just recommended to a couple who is sadly dealing with a family death, that they use the Y short term (for two months) while they are settling the estate. Flexibility and options like that are critical.
Options for volunteering help others to be part of the Y community as well.
I have always had a great learning experience at central branch ymca London
Would like to see more pickleball sessions and more differently skilled players attracted.
Also have a one day free drop in to attract pre covid levels in membership (also to reattract those that were members before.
The 2 week complimentary pass currently in place is a very good initiative.
The front line desk staff that I've met over the last 2 weeks have been quite impressive in their deportment, enthusiasm and interaction. It is a pleasure coming back.
The team is very cooperative, I appreciate their efforts.
Interesting and very good programa
I haven't started yet, but I was impressed with the care and attention to detail when getting my gym pass.
Thank you!
CBY Tri Club - Amazing coaches and an incredibly supportive environment for all levels of athletes.
Everything
The pool and gym schedules fit my needs perfectly. All the volunteers show some personality even if it's just to acknowledge our presence. The premises are well maintained and clean.
