Member Testimonials
Variety of available classes and instructors who make the classes fun and challenging.
I'd like to see more free swim hours. Some of us are not the eligible to do the classes due to health problems.
There are a variety for all levels of fitness and ages . The weight room is awesome and all the cardio equipment is in great shape !
I enjoy the gym and the entire facilities.
My particular favorite offering is the Zumba Gold class. The Baxter Y was without this class for quite a while, but it is the answer for those of us who have less endurance for the regular Zumba class, but gives us a wonderful workout combining whole body movement with dance. Please keep it on the schedule, and look for another certified instructor in case of cancellation or situations that come up. You have the greatest instructor in LISA on Mon. Wed. & Fri. Thank you for offering the Zumba Gold.
In addition to Zumba Gold, the Y is a godsend to the community for diverse programs as well as pool options. I have been a Y member for about 65 years and appreciate the opportunites offered by the Y.
Thank you so very much.
Classes for seniors. Great instructors like Dale and Carolyn. Clean facility.
The only issue I have with the YMCA is the cost per month is pretty high for a single person. I enjoy working out at the Ymca and the people they are very helpful.

Coach Dom does a great job explaining the activities, making it engaging both the child and the adult, and it's just a great way to spend my afternoon. I was very impressed! The staff has been amazing at every step. I hadn't been to the YMCA since I was a child, it was like coming back home. It's great to see another generation using these amazing programs

The Sauna is my favorite

I searched for a good group exercise class by going to three different YMCA locations. As I told Karen, our AOA Cardio instructor, her class at Baxter YMCA is by far the best class I found for me. It was a bonus to find Kathy’s Silver Sneakers Classic and Carolyn’s Senior Chair Yoga. My wife now attends these classes with me. Perfect!
