Member Testimonials
I have used the IRSAY YMCA for both lap swim, as well as a Toastmaster competition and another community meeting.
Gym
I like everything about the facility with the exception of one thing, your 7:00 a.m. lifeguards don't seem to know how to come to work on time. It's extremely frustrating to get their ready to start my pool work out only to have to wait for them to show up. I also work and when they are late it cuts down my workout time because unlike them I cannot be late to work.
I also don't understand why when they are late the lifeguard that's there cannot open the exercise pool since there are only a couple of us there ready to start at 7:00 a.m., it seems to not be a problem for them to cover both pools when they take their breaks.
Seems like the lap pool always gets preference over the exercise pool. Why is that?
Feel safe and secure, very clean, great staff, got what I need to get my work out done
Awesome
Clean and good employee's
Spacious, lots of usable equipment during peak hours. Wish sauna was open all the time. Also request a cold plunge.

Dedicated Lap pool is usually a great temperature. Not too warm, like pools that also have swimming lessons.

The programs are well-design to fit the necessities of several groups.
I like the pool and sauna and how clean the facilities are.
Great teachers
nice and inviting atmosphere and great instructors
We love the cheerful and bright interior of Irsay. The associates at the desk on the first floor are very helpful in answering questions. Bill at the EGYM was great to work with and got us set up with this great resource. And, other members are very friendly.
This gym is amazing. The facilities and equipment are all up to date, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the other patrons are respectful of your space/time. I would recommend this YMCA to anyone who is looking for a great place to workout at an affordable cost.
I really enjoy using the indoor track facility.
Me and my family enjoy it and close proximity staff is friendly and helpful just all around good place
I come for your pool activities. Love the pool area!!
Love my pump, balance and core classes. Abby, Berta and others are wonderful instructors - always encouraging and making sure form is on!
I love the eGym system!
Good indoor track. More YMCA locations need one. Am very glad this location does.
Love the eGym. I have never been as faithful to a weightlifting regime as this. It is so nice not having to set or keep track of your seat heights, weights, apparatus adjustments, etc. The video screen helps me maintain good form. Bill was great to set things up and attend to tweaks or problems.
I like having the user-programmed locks on the cubbies so that I don’t have to lug a padlock back and forth from home. My only complaint is that it is sometimes hard or impossible to find an unlocked cubby next to the weightlifting desk. Bill tells me that often half of the cubbies are empty but locked. This should be a regular priority to check these and unlock the empty ones.
I wonder why there can’t be working spray bottles at every eGym machine and all the other weightlifting machines. Everything would go that much quicker if you didn’t have to go look for a spray bottle.
The swimming pool. One of us (10 yo) was very upset at not being allowed to use the hot tub.... she has never been able to use a hot tub at a YMCA. They were excited to see they could use the cardio equipment if they got oriented to it! We were sad the rooftop garden wasn't open. It was a beautiful day outside! While we waited for the pool to open (we timed our arrival poorly), we just watched people on the open courts, because one of us didn't have non-marking soles.
Still would recommend, especially if we could get our friends to join us!
The personal is very nice. The place is very well maintained. The activities and programs are at your request.
The Play and Learn center is a life saver for parents and caretakers. Knowing my child is safe and having fun while I have a chance to take care of myself is incredible.
I like Water Aerobic’s with Caroline. I also like the indoor track. The locker room and showers are very clean and spacious. The general feel of the Irsay “Y” is welcoming. Please keep up the good work!
I love the pool -- the lifeguards have a great schedule, are very friendly, and the sauna/hot tub are great to relax after swimming.
Convenience is a great thing. The location for us living downtown is perfect. Thank you for getting rid of the clunky lot gates. Thank you for all the new equipment. Thank you for the convenient lockers right by the gym floor.
Water Aerobics class is off the chain the best in the Indianapolis
