Member Testimonials
Clean and friendly. I wish there were a buddy system. A place where people can sign up and say they are looking for a workout partner.
Spin classes
Aquatics is the best!
I am absolutely excited about the Powerlifting Challenge the YMCA is putting together 💪
Attitude of the people, cleanliness, range of machines, what I don’t like our members who use their phones on speaker while doing exercise. I think there should be more signs that ask members “if they want to use your phone please go outside“.
I like the chair yoga and balance class. The best are the instructors
THE BIG BEAUTIFUL POOL!!!
There is a nice variety of classes with quality instructors. Some interesting seminars are also offered.
Good variety of activities and events, clean facility, nice staff, really like the long sidewalk across the front
Excellent although I miss the Enhanced Fitness program you used to offer.
I love the group classes
Great variety of programs, I am hoping to
try some others. I love the Zumba and
Cardio Drumming classes. Great instructors .
Charlotte and Christine make the classes
I attend fun.
The weight room and weight machines, along with the friendly camaraderie of the staff and members
Spin class is my main reason for YMCA membership. I usually take the 9 am class 5 to 6 times a week.
Lots of variety!
Multiple programs and activities for all ages and ability groups.
I love Bonnie Judy & her water aerobics class!! I try to come in 30 minutes early for her class so I can use some of weight machines. I'm not always faithful to those but usually faithful to Bonnie's class.
Consistency and Fun!!
I like that the Y is a group of individuals like myself, older, but wa ting to stay healthy. Love all the classes especially Jan's aerobics dance class T/T/S at 9am. Also love Sherry's class because it's later in the day & incorporates dance, weights, balance & bands to peppy music. Appreciate all the equipment that's available & that we have a sauna which l us daily to rid toxins & extra sodium. Hope the steam room.will one day be up & running. The Venice Y is clean & tidy with less clutter now & that's appreciated. The only disappointment is the pickleball accommodations & program. Indoors is great because of the intense heat but availability is lacking. Have been a member for 11 years & come daily so love the Y!!!!
I love Pilates with Jamisue! She is encouraging and fun and it makes me want to exercise.
My sister and I are caregivers for our Mom. I love the pool though I’m not a swimmer. I can take advantage of the cardio-splash and aqua zumba classes from 8:45 am until 9:45 am. Sometimes, I come early and stay late with my goal being 460 minutes a week. The YMCA is a comfort zone.
Mainly I just use the exercise equipment on the second floor as far as equipment exercise.
I do try to swim laps 2-3 times a week and the jacuzzi afterwards and then shower. The pool is a good temperature, the jacuzzi is clean and powerful. The showers get a lot of daily use but are kept pretty clean.
I also sign up for Leslie Carlson’s balance class which is well run and helps me.
The machines are standard and quite satisfactory. The sauna is quite nice and the Jacuzzi is amazing!
It might be nice if the noisy room door was closed while everyone else is exercising, but that’s just minor. No biggie.
Only use the strength training equipment
