Member Testimonials
A real sense of community. A clean and upbeat environment. Great staff.
Can go every morning, before thre crowd comes.
Like the friendly, open atmosphere. Instructors are well trained and helpful, easy to communicate with. It's a pleasure to interact with any of the fellow exercisers.
The place itself is light and contemporary.
Only area which needs improvement is cleanliness. Floors are sticky, making exercising with sliders almost impossible. Leaving our feet black during Barre class.
Restrooms could use attention also.
Great classes and instructors!
the variety is terrific...although i have to say that it is too bad that one has to worry aboutings being stolen.
Kindest most attentive workers in the kids club. It's often pretty quiet. The classes are a great workout and the outdoor pool is really nice! So happy it's opening soon for summer. The pool umbrellas for shade are a huge improvement from past years. also. --Thank you!

There is something for everyone at every level.
The East Palo Alto YMCA is truly a community -- much more than just a place to show up and work out. Every program that I want is offered at this site. The trainers (particularly Jamar) are the heart of this place. The staff knows each person individually. And the instructors are of the highest quality: Bonnie, Allen, Kevin, Hector. Tony keeps the gym and the studios spotless while he is on the floor - the trainers don't just sit at the desk staring at the computer.
"Everybody know your name." You get hugs and support. I'm inspired to show up as many days as I can
Friendliness of staff and class participants. Skill, humor and attentiveness of instructor, Jamar.
It is a nice, clean facility, good equipment, wonderful swimming pool and friendly people. I especially like Enhance Fitness and Soul Line Dance.
Clean facility with a lot of exercise equipment.
All: clean, program the staff and the members.
You have Anne Caswell for Pilates and stretch
Group exercise; zumba; community
I mostly just use the exercise equipment, but I like that the staff are all so friendly -- they always greet me when arriving and leaving -- and that it's never so busy that I can't get access to the equipment I want to use. And it is well-maintained: light, bright, and cheery.
Has all the equipment that I need for my strength work. Easy access from my home in Menlo Park. Unbeatable cost per session for seniors 65+. Very friendly staff and trainers. Highly recommended.
