Member Testimonials
The pool is the best in the Bay Area for lap swimming. Keep up the good work there.
Love the basketball courts. Maybe stock a few more basketball nets. I have seen a few ripped ones recently.
Thanks!
Warm and inviting atmosphere. Full of neighborly people. A place to feel accepted as well as take care of yourself. Great classes! Great camaraderie.
Excellent for senior citizens, group classes for seniors, fitness center and gym and swimming pool, friendly staff. I love it.
I like the quality of the gym and variety of activities. One suggestion I would have is to purchase another stair climber, as there is often a wait to use it due to the rising popularity of the only one climber which is available.
Classes, pickleball, pool
Fantastic pool, hot tub, and senior classes. Friendly staff, keeps it clean and is attentive.
Clean environment; friendly enough staff; good service; family atmosphere; generally polite members; very good workout equipment, especially eGym.
The Vivasia class is my favorite!
I love the dance classes, but I do wish they were in the gym instead of the studio. It gets very crowded in there.
The program and activities are really nice.
I would definitely recommend that facility to anyone.
I used to use the fitness center regularly and found staff there very helpful. Now I'm in the senior fitness class and enjoying it very much.
swim class
The pool is great
You need to quit policing the sauna. It is not the industry standard to harass the people in the sauna every 15 minutes. You need to understand this, as no other facility does this. Please stop immediately or I will take further actions, both administrative and directly with staff. Thank you for your much needed understanding and compliance. I'm serious.

Children’s pool
The Y is such a special place in our community. Front desk staff are friendly and flexible. Wonderful range of exercise classes, pools and water classes. The Banks center has a variety of equipment. My children are grown now, but we always benefited from childhood swim classes and the Saturday basketball teams. The instructors are friendly and supportive. (special shout out to Sue D for Body Pump, Simon and Carol at the ppol) So nice to see a young, up and coming cohort of new lifeguards too. Juana on the personal training team. This Y has been our special go to place for exercise, well-being and fitness, but also a sense of belonging from the time my children were very young through adulthood, and as I have aged. You're the best!
I would like the instructional pool which is warmer to be open between the hours of 11:00 and 3:00.
