Member Testimonials
Teacher Carol taught our son to hold his breath below water and swim! He made a lot of progress with her this month. She is very patient and encouraging!
I like the variety of fitness classes for seniors. It's very easy and flexible using the YMCA App to select classes. Thank you!!
I use the pool a lot. I enjoy the care for the pool and the work of the lifeguards on duty. They are very responsive and alert most of the time.
Something that bothers me is the abuse of some adults and families with the showers. I am talking about the women's bathrooms and showers. There are constantly, after classes kids taking very long showers, with adult's supervision. It seems like some people don't care about wasting water if they don't pay it, setting an example for minors and adolescent about wasting resources if they are of public use. Perhaps a strong and frequent change set of adds and signs might be useful with this issue.
How about showers that stop in 2minutes? Like the ones at the Rinconada Pool?
The ladies in charge of the child care are such wonderful teachers. They take such good care of my kids and my kids look forward to going to the Y because of them. I cannot talk enough about what a gift these ladies are!!

Well equipped weight room
I wanted to express my gratitude for the incredible progress my son, Yug, has made with his coach. After just 4 classes, he’s already swimming full length! His confidence and skills have grown significantly, and we truly appreciate the coach’s dedication and guidance. Thank you 😊
Yoga and Zuma classes are my favorites
Swim lessons are great with great teachers

Instructors and staff are very welcoming.
The instructor of the Tuesday/Thursday morning spin class, Amy, is great and her class is growing. High energy, great music, lots of enthusiasm. Now we need to get bikes that work.
lots of group exercises and workouts machines. Friendly staff and teachers.
Body pump.
water aerobics classes are both excellent!
It’d be great if there is pool only access membership with lower monthly fee, because I don’t use other spaces in the facility at all
after a bumpy start, leo has turned out to be a great teacher for my grandson sebastian who has severe language delay (but not autistic or neurodivergent) and who has a hard time getting to know new people.
heather and shravya have been very helpful on a variety of question and problems and helping me learn to navigate the system.
it would be nice however if the locker room wasn't so cold when getting out of the pool!
