Member Testimonials
The staff this YMCA are the best
The Y offers enough activities to satisfy your needs regardless of what level your needs are and most are included in our monthly membership.
I love the facility and staff. It makes going to the gym enjoyable and I am much more likely to keep up my schedule of exercise.
Classes, egym, Hugh and Ryan
As a member, you can join any program or activity scheduled. Also, you can meet other members and become friends for years!
You’re encouraged to go at your own pace. Lisa Schouten is an excellent, patient, highly knowledgeable, instructor.
I was happy to see the new signs on the weight machines putting a ten minute time limit on use. I hope this will prevent groups of teenage boys from monopolizing the machines.
The facility is spacious, airy , and clean. I’ve been to four YMCA facilities in the area, and El Camino is by far the best !!
Good time slots for afternoon classes. Swim instructors are patient with the preschoolers (2-5 year olds). Offer decent basic swim techniques as well as 5 mins of play time with pool toys. A nice surpise for the YMCA to offer pool toys. Wish there was more shaded area or tents off to the side of the pools.
Great variety of classes throughout the day. Friendly, helpful staff and people who attend classes are overall very friendly. Wonderful location on the edge of a big park so you can incorporate a warm up before classes!
Friendly staff. Nice environment.
Professionals who teach classes
The best instructors of Yoga and Pilatis
I'm new so I started with the eGym circuit. I love it!!
After hip replacement surgery I'm lookint to build my strength back up.
I like the variety of exercises/machines and want to try the aqua fit class.
U-Jam - so friendly and fun
I transferred from Cardio Rehab program at
El Camino Hospital Mountain View CA to YMCA El Camino after completing 12 weeks in Cardio Rehab in year 2018.
It’s awesome experience at Y. My sugar is under control (It’s at normal level now). I have more energy. One thing I say loudly that staff at Y is great. I will give credit to Staff member LISA she was very accommodative during COVID out break 2019.
Now Y is my second home. I am very happy person.
Thank you very much staff at YMCA EL CAMINO
I use the two main weight room areas, and the swimming pool. Those facilities keep me coming back.
I love the yoga classes and the weight room
clean, well lite, friendly staff, very good equipment
I have not participated any programs. But I enjoy using the workout facility and men's lockroom. There is no doubt MV YMCA is the best among all YMCAs. It's part of my daily routine that I can not live without. YMCA allows me to be healthy, feeling good about myself while enjoying what our community has to offer. The only drawback would the tired locker room. The show spaces are not as clean as before Covid. And most of the locker rooms are much older, some have not been maintained or frankly dirty. Other then that, there is no complaint what so ever. Keep up the good work!!! Thank you
Great classes, talented/knowledgeable instructors.
Great sense of community
Terrific place to workout
Super clean pool
Very friendly personal
Not to busy.
Very nice location
Lap swim, aqua class, pickleball.
The facility is well maintained and staff are friendly. I also like having local youth to staff the swimming pool and front desk. It creates a great community. Bri is my favorite Pilates teacher. Everyone in her class loves her.
Classes and towels :)
I like the availability of swim lanes, and the usability of the locker room
Great equipment!
I have not been involved in the activities and only go to the Y to work out. I like the selection of weight machines and particularly like the e gym. It is usually not crowded and is a pleasant place to work out.
The group classes I have participated in have been excellent. Great instructors. The classes are however packed ( very popular) especially the Pilates class on weekends. Perhaps there should be more offered.
The EGYM circuit machines are not in order, their layout is weird and some are not working.
We especially enjoy the eGym and the pool.
Love the consultation provided on how to use the cardio equipment, along with a recommended exercise schedule. While I wished you had an indoor pool, I get a lot of weekly use out of your facility and it’s equipment.

I love the hours of the gym I wish it was open a little later but overall the time are very good and the gym doesn't get to full.
