My Senior Fitness instructor, Camille, is the best!
The coaches were awesome !! The staff was welcoming !!
I think you should illuminate the rule for the weight room requiring shoes, especially when they’re not free weights being used, the likelihood of a weight dropping on your foot while wearing sandals compared to dropping on your foot while wearing shoes is mostly most likely very minor.
If a member is trying to remove a foot infection or fungus, trying to keep his foot out of moisture there by wearing sandals to heal his toes wearing shoes does not help and while using resistant machines, nothing is gonna drop on my foot. Therefore, I think you should reconsider the rule by wearing shoes in Weight resistant machine rooms.
Instructor John did a great job in couching the kids on learning the techniques. He is very specific in tailoring each kid based on their specific needs.
Staff and organization is great! We really like Emily and Jocelyn, they have the best vibe!
Would be nice to have more chairs at outdoor pool. Not nearly enoughon crowded days.

Love your yoga classes and the pool
Great people and nice and clean pools and gym!!! Did I say great people 🙏🏿💙🙏🏿
I like the swimming lessons because the program starts on time, the coaches they’re focusing on the kids and what they need learning.
The staff is very helpful. I like the water fitness instructors. They let you go at your own pace.
I do have one question. What is happening up in one area of the mens locker room where some lockers were taken out. When will the other showers be ready in the mens locker room.
I really like this place because it is very convenient to where I work. I can come after work to take a water fitness class oor workout.
Your services and programs are open and of interest to all people.
Your staff is well-trained and attentive.
Our Central Y is a friendly, welcoming place.
Great Zumba class! Great instructors. Very nice environment. Friendly staffs. Good workout always.
Thank you!
Lots of classes fun instructors wish some classes started at 6pm during the week
Great instructors! My daughter was very scared to do swimming lessons but after the first day she looks forward to it! She even dunked her head all the way under water and came up smiling which never has happened. Thank you!
Comprehensive and high quality
I enjoy the variety of activities offered at the Y. Sometimes I use the equipment, other times, I swim. I look forward to starting Yoga. It's very nice to have a wide menu of options available.
I really like friendliness of staff and family atmosphere there.
Friendly staff, clean facility
My daughter goes to a swimming class.before this center we went to YMCA on Quito RD. I like this center better because instructors work better with students, they spend more time with them.
- there is a Pilates class with Amy on Tuesday afternoons which I love among all other classes that I ah e tried, she is really really good at teaching and makes sure everyone is comfortable and following the routine. I wish she offered more classes.
I also love the child care facility which enables me to attend more afternoon sessions.
My kids love the outdoor pool with mushroom.
It's a great mix of things, classes are great, I love that there are two pools! We come all the time. I would love it if the men's showers got fixed. My husband often has to wait so long for a shower than he just gives up. We've been coming here since last November and there is not even a sign saying when they will be fixed. The women's locker room when it needed work got fixed promptly AND we have an extra locker room to use in the meantime! Is there a schedule of when that work will be done? Thanks!
Swimming and running are my favorite sports.
The organization for me has been like a great family and community. I enjoy what I accomplished in terms of my fitness goals. The Staff Members are amazing and I have begun to build trusting relationships within the setting.
Thanks YMCA CENTRAL VALLEY!
Name removed!

I love the pools!! I try to get there every day but because of work I only get there about 4 times a week. I love the Y and I feel good being a member and I do encourage friends and neighbors to join. Most are put off by the monthly rate but I do think it's worth it because it's a great resource for many in our community. I would, however like to strongly suggest returning to pre-Covid hours. It's always a shame that the Y doesn't open until 8 am on and that the pools close at 3:45pm on the weekends!! Also, upkeep has not been what it once was and that makes me sad so I'd love to see more/better maintenance at the facilities. Please don't build a new Y, just refresh the old one. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my comments.
