More stair climbers!!
Variety
We like everything about the Venice Y. Christine is a big fan of Jamie Sue's class. Hank likes the cycling videos, as well as the exercise machines, pool, jacuzzi/steam/sauna. We both like how nice everyone is. Kudos in all respects.
Chair yoga
Hours of operation and variety of exercise equipment
Everything!
I like the variety of classes and good instructors.
The availability of a wide range of activities for a wide range of age groups. While a bit more expensive than some other options the Y supports community activities strengthening the community, while also offering a great opportunity to interact and engage a very wide variety members
i like the diversity of equipment. I think you should offer some general training tip sessions/meetings like you do the other free classes.
Lots of great teachers and classes.
The instructors, the check-in staff, life guards, and the pool! The hours are very convenient.
I never exercised on a regular basis. Then, one day I was on a treadmill upstairs and saw a water aerobics group. I haven’t been on a treadmill in over 5 yrs. This year I have logged 2.5 million steps. The YMCA is where the 😎 agers exercise!
Thanks❣️
The variety of classes.
One of the most valuable programs for me as a parent was and is the Kids Zone at the Venice YMCA. Not only does it help parents to stay healthy and fit but also does the staff engage my child in a meaningful way that he loves going there. Well done!
The rock steady boxing is a great offering for people with Parkinson’s. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful.
Good instructors!
Great instructors and many different classes to attend.
Susan Downing is outstanding with the senior adult aerobics she takes us through every day.
I have recommended the "Y" on many occasions. I have been a member for almost 13 years and it ha been a wonderful experience. I am now legally blind and I receive help from both inareuxroea members. The spin class is this the one that it the best for me. I dot's have to see to do the class. Val is an extraordinary instructor. She helps me in so many ways. My only complaint is that there is there are not enough bikes. This is going to be very difficult to get into class during the up coming season . I am able to do the 10:30 yoga class. Stacy recommended it when her class was moved to a later time. Unfortunately it was to late and I was unable to wait between spring and her chair and chair yoga. I am not able to do most classes due to my disability so I am keenly dependent on the ones I am currently doing.
Love the y in Venice. It’s great for all the family
I love the pool and the gym since it’s rehab. It offers a lot. The staff are really helpful

Clean gym with plenty of options for a great workout. Friendly and helpful front desk staff. Keep doing this and I will be a member for another 35 years!
Variety and instructors
I enjoy the many classes the Y has to offer. Also working out with my personal trainer Dana who keeps me goal focused, energized and stronger. My husband enjoys working out with weights and various machines, as well as utilizing the treadmills and elliptical machines.
Up to date equipment, personal trainers and facilities
Excellent facilities and staff.

Love the teachers, and variety of classes. What I don't like, is that "in season" it's extremely difficult to sign on to the classes you normally take. During season, it would be good to add more of the popular classes, so people who participate all year long are not blocked out
