Member Testimonials
I feel so lucky to belong to the Y where everyone is welcome. The teachers and the community are great!
Large variety!!
Different schedules for different needs
Wide variety for all ages and conditions.
I think the facility is great, especially having the outdoor pool and two good table tennis tables. But the open hours in the weekends are quite insufficient, close at 4pm Saturday and 2pm Sunday. People want to have a relaxing morning and only do work-outs in afternoon and evening during the weekend. I hope the open hours can be extended at least to 6pm.
Lisa is my trainer and she is unbelievably dedicated always striving to make workouts interesting, fun, energizing and helping me be keep strong. I’ve recommended El Camino Y to several people because of Lisa. If this Y hires and honors employees like Lisa, it is truly the very best establishment! I hope she will be compensated for all of her training abilities and her expertise. She is truly amazing and generous.
Inspiring instructors. Variety of classes.
I wish it has line dance class here
Great facility. Always clean and in good shape. Friendly staff.
I primarily use the main workout room (weights and machines), and, infrequently, the pool for lap swimming.
I love it here. The facility is amazing. My only request is to clean the women’s showers. They have mold on the curtains
Availability, Welcoming
I mainly use the treadmills and other machines, sometimes the pool. I don't participate in any of the classes or group activities. I like the variety and the ability to choose exactly the things I want to do.
trainers and staff
Friendly staff and clientele, nice facility
Variety
Very clean and friendly staff.
I like the eGym and having space to practice basketball. The gym always has towels and spray to wipe down the equipment. Only reason for a 9 is there are a lot of basketballs in disrepair.
The wide variety of classes.
Great Zumba classes. (But wish you had LineDance, too — I go to other Y’s for that.)
I miss the spa. More lifeguards. Pool with more lanes.
Wonderful aqua instructors.
I enjoy the clean and well maintained facilities. I saw the updates in the bathrooms, I was not there since before the pandemic.
Clean and friendly staff
Classes, gym, pool, members, instructors, and facilities. We love the location at Cuesta park and all the natural light. Beautiful facility and makes working out so nice.
Love the Les Mills classes. Would like to see the Sunday 11am class moved indoors. I have allergies and can't do the Bodyflow class in the front of the building.
child care
pool - family swim
great group exercise instructors
great cardio machines
Beautiful facility with nice outdoor pool surrounded by public park. Love the YMCA ❤️
I normally only use the workout room,so my comments apply to that. The combination of equipment is certainly quite adequate to get a full workout, and this includes the cardiovascular apparatus. Area is kept clean and is quiet and, at least when I go, is rarely crowded. Staff is helpful.
I have also started (one time so far) to use the pool. So far as I can tell, it is very well maintained, water is clean, and there is no detectable odor of chlorine, compared some years ago.
Fun classes

Safety first in this post Covid-19 environment. I still wear a mask and I appreciate the support in that choice I make. The choices of workout options are varied and solid. I use the e-gym and find it helpful in teaching me a good pace.
