The schedule in this location is the best out of all the branches in my area. The bodycombat line up is the best with Eyal, Autumn, Dorota and Mark. Top notch in terms of putting combat and pump in the schedule.
The one group class at the Northwest YMCA that I hope to get back into is ballet.
I really like the eGym system. I imagine that eGym is fairly expensive, so I don't expect that a lot of other YMCAs in Silicon Valley are going to be adding eGym soon (besides Mountain View and Cupertino). I am grateful to eGym for maintaining a record of my weights for each machine, so I don't have to remember how many pounds I lifted last time I was at the gym. I also like that eGym collects real data about my exercises (and that the app will tell me that one muscle group is a bit strong than the opposing muscle group).
The one thing that I would prefer to be added to eGym is if the system would also keep a record of the use of the aerobic machines. One of the trainers explained that the heart rates displayed on the machines are not very accurate. I don't expect eGym to record the heart rates for each workout. I do like that I can use my eGym bracelet to log in to an aerobic machine and my choice of workouts come up right away (without having to manually log in and have to remember yet another password). What would be nice to see though is if eGym could record the time working out on a certain machine on a certain. I gather that the aerobic machine workouts can be entered manually, but considering all the other automatic records added, I would prefer not to spend time entering my aerobic details into the eGym app. If the eGym software simply does not allow for any automatic, digital records of aerobic machine data, I am content with that. However, if there is one more feature that would be possible and really nice to see in eGym, I would vote for an automic record of the workouts on the aerobic machines (and not just on the weight machines).
Great facility with a lot of variety in activities!
The Pilates teacher Tao is AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Friendly staff. Comfortable community center. Good activities. Fun trainers. Everyone is very nice.
Good class sizes. Great instructors
The pool, the lockers, the exercise space...however, I was disappointed with the Child Care facility. It is very small and seemed good for toddlers but for 5 - 8 yo, minimal care / space.
Except for the long duration of pool fix, I have so far enjoyed every class I have attended as a new member.
I would like to see more classes for Sat and sun mid to late pm into 6pm.
Swim instructors seem effective with teaching our son. However, it would be even better if you offered more lessons and with smaller student to instructor ratio. It’s hard to enroll in classes as all classes are full.
The way of teaching swimming. Instructors are also very nice .
Very good coach
Need more Family Changing Room and need have the clearly rules for family with more than one kids.
I really enjoyed the water classes after a hiatus of three years because of the pandemic.
Good to excellent instructors, convenient class hours, clean gym, and helpful desk staff.
The coaching is good
Lots of options for fitness and wellness classes.
You need to fix the Handy-Cap shower in the Ladies Locker room.
Line dance classes, gym
Senior fitness like chair yoga and balancing classes. Low impact
The swim program is very well organized. One quick feedback: It will be great if the evaluation sheet given at the end of the last session is brought in to the tables at the beginning of the session. Some of us have another class to attend immediately after the swim clas and hence will not be able to pick up the evaluation after class. Would really appreciate if this can be incorporated. Thanks!
Swimming lessons helped my child learn and practice swimming.
Really love the program!
We like your swim club.
