Member Testimonials
Instructors were great!
Kathy Verlander is an excellent swimming instructor and I have enjoyed taking the adult swimming class. I hope to continue to improve with additional practice.
I liked that a mature adult was the swim instructor
Staff very patient and friendly. I would recommend highly!
The instructor was very kind to my 6 month old and tried his best to keep everyone learning with very different skill sets and attitudes. For a 12 month to a 3 year old. The group could have been better suited to focus on smaller age groups for the age range made it harder for all children to engage.
My instructor is great! She is super patient and knowledgeable. The entire staff at the pool is great.
Great staff super friendly and helpful
Great place for family fun and activities
The Y is great! Keep up the hard work!
Instructors are excellent. Really great with kids and patient.

Our family loves the warm, welcoming environment from everyone we encounter at our Goochland YMCA. Josephine, the instructor for our son's current swim lessons has been wonderful and truly helped him gain confidence in the water. We will be signing him up for additional lessons.
Josephine is amazing!
Joséphine is very personable- came I et to introduce herself. Blake is a patient teacher and very positive.
Loved that you all offered Saturday morning parent/child swimming lessons!
All the staff at the Y is awesome from swim instructors to the staff all around. Great place
I was very pleased at how the leaders were engaged and performed the exercises and the kids were so happy and wanted to participate,
People are very nice and helpful
The friendly welcome you get went you enter
Very informative
Tanner is a great youth instructor. He has made my child feel so at ease in the water, and my child is excited to learn new skills.
Hola a mi en lo personal me gusta, los programas de Natación, que mi hija está feliz aprendiendo a nadar, el de deportes por ejemplo el soccer que que mi hijo de 4 años comenzará a jugar el esta tan feliz, el programa de zumba que aún no me decido por escribirme, y por supuesto el Gym,. Gracias de ante mano por tomar en cuenta mi opinión
Clean pool nice staff.
Overall, swimming at the Goochland YMCA is a very good experience. A few thoughts:
- ensure lifeguard stands are occupied, especially when it appears you are sufficiently staffed.
- operate slide more regularly/consistently. 
- skim/vacuum pool with greater regularity.  I don't believe patrons would be bothered if this activity occurred while the pool is open (in fact, I bet it would be positively reinforcing).
Thanks!
Great!
The teachers are very nice and caring and passionate about what they do.
My kids enjoyed their first lesson and the instructors were kind and uplifting to each of the kids in the class.
The instructor is great and so are the other people in the class
The great teachers!
 
   
  
We were gifted a three-month membership and this is really the first time our kids have been able to participate in a program because we are currently members. My daughter is taking swim lessons and we couldn’t be happier with Miss Kathy! She is absolutely wonderful with the kids and makes learning fun. Thank you for employees who are friendly, and truly passionate about their job!!
