Member Testimonials

Very community oriented.

I love the service provided to the inner city youth during the summer. It is so valuable to have a venue which embraces acceptance and love.
For me, the water aerobics experience for seniors and adults under the capable direction of Al Leonhart is a physical, spiritual and mental reward.
Keep up the good work and mostly connection to the Y's mission and values.

There's something for everyone

They keep the kids active during the summer and any concerns they contact the parent.

It's very clean with nice staff and also it is something the kids can do everyday of the week

The swim instructer are amazing!!!! Even when certain kids are being difficult and not listening they do wonderful and they have great patience!

Love the swimming program at the YMCA just enough time in each session lot to long or short.The YMCA has tough 3 of my children to swim I highly recommend recommend them the teachers are great with the kids and make each session personal and remember there names very welcoming and made my children good swimmers and confident to swim.

Professional instructors
Friendly atmosphere

I think that the Y does an excellent job of providing activities for all - especially the inner-city youth. Personally, I use the excellent weight and cardio rooms as well as the lap pools.

Very nice equipment

You provide so many great programs and services to the community! Wonderful and helpful staff who truly care.

I love this facility!! The staff and members make you feel like you're part of a family and that's what community should feel like. I particularly enjoy water aerobics and the instructor Al. His class is full of laughter, fun and good music!

Wide variety of ways to exercise and train.
Enjoy swimming in cleanest water in town

I have not done any programs or activities. When I belonged before you ran a special on trying the classes out. It was a tester program. I tried a couple. Helps you feel more comfortable

I like the crowd and the atmosphere.

Atmosphere

I love the Y in Downtown Youngstown. It seems like they have alot of activities for school kids. A good mix of programs for kids.

I appreciate how clean and maintained everything is. Outstanding!

Great atmosphere and always very clean

I have gotten a lot out of jump stretch, and I occasionally do group fitness yoga.
Additionally the room with the elliptical and other cardio machines is good for solo workouts.

N/A for me, don’t use them, just the facilities

All exercise rooms and areas are spacious and very well equipped for a vast variety of exercise routines.

I really enjoy the silver sneaker class.

I am motivated to go mainly for the steam room and sauna. The bathrooms are disgusting tough. It smells so bad. Part of it is due to the bad hygiene of the visitors - you can’t change American culture I guess. Please do more to ensure bathrooms/locker rooms are kept clean and encourage visitors to maintain and clean atmosphere. Floors are just filthy and the smell is overwhelming.

Also - sick and tired of all of the nudity. Not very Christian like. It’s borderline homosexual and I’d like to see YMCA encourage visitors to stop walking around naked so freely.
