Member Testimonials
Great instructors, great selection of classes throughout the day. Love the e-gym!
I like that there are many activities for all age ranges. I also like that there are personal trainers who can help you when you need it. I loved YMCA Family Camp years ago and now I love doing the E gym. It’s a decades long experience.
We’ve previously tried several non-YMCA swim programs, but our tots mostly clung to us in these parent/tot programs and struggled to participate. The YMCA program has been a game-changer—they’re now in the pool independently, learning so much each week. The instructors are kind, energetic, and help our kids feel confident and engaged. We also really appreciate the tot-friendly pool, family bathrooms, and ample parking—it makes the whole experience easy and enjoyable.
Great teachers that help making kids comfortable, fun, on time!
I like the gym and swimming pool facilities. I also like the kid-friendly programs.
There’s a greater variety than maybe 15 years ago for group classed. Before it was either Yoga or a Doods-type class.
But, I still think you shouldn’t close so early on Sunday.
And it would be super cool if all those people who donated said “anonymous” instead of listing their names. Silicon Valley cares far too much about who gave what, even where you’re going to spend free time.
how friendly everyone is, how welcome I feel, and the overall cleanliness and lighting. I mainly use the gym and cardio equipment, and rarely have to wait for my turn.
I only wish that it was easier to get more time in the swimming pool :)
I have not participated any group classes other then the exercise areas and the shower room. But I love the friendly staffs, location and what YMCA has to offer. However the men's shower room needs some work in conditioning and cleaniness.
Nice variety and good teachers.
the lockerooms and the stretching rooms are the best
I really like the water aerobic.
Please include STEP Exercise classes.
Would like more info on Adult Swim lessons - Adult learners
Great classes, extremely competent instructors, friendly atmosphere.
I like your functional fitness and stretch and sculpt classes.
Many ways to keep physically active that I don’t have at home as an older person.
The water aerobics gives a great workout.
That there are a variety of activities for a range of ages
Welcoming, friendly, something for everyone.
You can do what works for you!
Pool. Weight room.
varied and easily accessible
The pool is clean and the lap swim hours make sense
Workout room is great
Group X classes
The classes are great with wonderful instructors
I was thinking that there is a missed opportunity to make people feel even more welcome when they check in is if the person who is seeing the name flash would say: Hi First name removed have a great workout. I think people like to feel that they are more than just a person who is checking in. I have to say I’m guilty of not calling the check-in person by name since I may not see their tag or figure they don’t care. I’m going to get into the habit of remembering their names and maybe they’ll pick up the habit too
There is no indoor pool in winter.
I like the friendliness of the members and staff at the El Camino Y. I enjoy the expanded pickleball hours and the selection of classes.
THINGS THAT NEED IMPROVEMENT:
1) The women's locker room needs a thorough cleaning. There's mold on the ceiling in the shower area, the shower curtains are grungy & need to be replaced and the floors need to be mopped. T
2) The floors in the the Stretch room & the Multi Purpose room are really dirty & need to be mopped daily.
Nice people. Helpful. Like the egym and classes.
I'm so grateful to have found a really fine. Pilates instructor... MICHAL. Just wish she taught more than 1 Pilates a week.
All group x coaches .. but the weights that are outside for body pump should be replaced.. central ymca has weight possible can donate to you .. the ones outside have no more sand in them .. group x coaches are so wonderful
