Good atmosphere
Fun and build my confidence
how big the ymca is and all of the different class offerings. Love the steam and sauna as well
I always enjoy my time at the Y. Between having an indoor track, tons of free weights, and a hot tub/steam room, there is always something to do!
I like all the classes I attend, espeically the TRX Training classes taught by Jeff. The Drenched class by Karen. The yoga classes. And the Shine and Uplift classes. Thank you for having such a nice variety of classes to choose from.
Great place to workout and make connections. It has all of the amenities you need and more.
Actually- everything except many times the 24 hour room is too cold to even workout in.
We like the friendly people, the fun classes, the ease of using all amenities.
Wonderful facility with offerings for all ages. Well maintained and clean. Staff is superb.
I absolutely love how they treat you like family!! From the time you are greeted when you enter the building at the check in desk to the time you leave and they say “Have a great day” at the check in desk, it is always a positive experience. I also love how they have Ben personalizing it, with my first name “Have a great day Kevin”. I mean the only other business that does that to me is Starbucks!! I think I go to Starbucks too much😂.
Seriously though, just keep doing what you are doing, your customer experience is truly amazing!!
Thanks,
I love everything about the Y - I come in almost every day

Beautiful facility,qualified and friendly staff.
I swim on the regular and the Lifeguards and entire pool area is run so very professionally - The lap lane reservation system works great but there is also some open space if no reservation could be made! Many Thanks to the Dow Y pool team!!!

What stands out to me about the Dow Bay Area Family YMCA is the sense of belonging. You walk in and feel connected. It’s neighbors, families, and kids all sharing the same space and supporting each other. That kind of community matters.
