Member Testimonials
There's always something for everybody. I am at the moment a fairly frail senior, and am grateful for the opportunities to recover my strength, stamina, and balance in a safe and compassionate environment.
Affordable prices for low income families who want to better their health
Great services from YMCA. Thank you.
CORE class with Jenny and Al. Body Balance with Michael, and RPM with Al. Thanks.
I enjoy being able to go to the weight room early and also be able to use the elliptical machine without waiting 😊
Variety of group exercises classes. The best group ex instructors throughout the YMCA’s.
There is always plenty of staff and everyone is on time.
I like that i can grow muscle and keep my growth, and i like that the facilitators are respectful. At the beginning of the membership they will allow a tour of the facility and they will ensure that you are monitored for safety. You may ask for a trainer and they have different programs you can join to begin a new or renew your old fitness health goals.

The group swim lessons are great for my 6 year old daughter! We did the swim lessons at Waterworks and Farnsworth school without making much progress. She's really enjoying the group lessons and I think they're structure really well. I would definitely recommend it for preschool and elementary school aged kids.
I joined the 7am Masters Swim almost three years ago. I love the Central YMCA. I especially appreciate Jill. Jill greets me by name and always has a kind word. The facilities are older but they are clean. The outdoor pool has issues, but I understand the funds needed to fix what needs fixing aren't available at this time.
I appreciate how reasonable the monthly membership cost is for me, a senior.
Many thanks,Central YMCA, for this wellness promoting, welcoming and happy place.
Everything! 😁
I like that the YMCA serves families and individuals of all ages. They fundraise in order to be able to offset the membership cost for those who need financial assistance. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. The classes are great and there is a good variety of choices of class types. For those who prefer solo workouts, there are plenty of cardio and weight machines to use. The Y is a very family friendly place, which I much prefer over gyms with a "young singles" culture.
Flexible offerings, friendly and supportive instructors and staff, easy to navigate building.
The program is affordable, effective, and my kids enjoy their lessons.
Fitness classes are very good. Equipment is maintained and in good shape, pretty clean in locker rooms and common areas.

They are great!!!
Good equipment, friendly atmosphere, lots of choices!
When I used to go to the Central YMCA before Covid-19, I found the trainers and wellness coaches to be very friendly and helpful! I especially liked interacting with Jill in membership services!
After Covid-19, I have rarely gone to the Central YMCA. I now go to the Southwest YMCA in Saratoga.

The entire facilities are cleaned and staff are so nice with us seniors
