Everything! Perhaps it's all about the people. Front desk is welcoming and helpful, people who lead the classes are terrific, lifeguards are on the ball and watchful, and cleaning person is hard working, Overall, the YMCA is well maintained.

My family and finally just me alone have been going to SVYMCA for about 30 years.. I must say I have not asked for any improvements aside from Power-Washing the smaller grey chairs in the last 10 years.
So I would say all is going well.
The classes and the instructors who teach them have motivated me to to stick consistently to a program for the first time. I also like the friendly staff and the family vibe.

My family and I are new to the YMCA. So far we are enjoying the swimming pool, and lessons. The Group exercises such as the Aquatic class and Senior classes (Chair Yoga) have been great for my husband! My daughter is looking forward to the Kids Fitness classes starting next week on T/Thur. It's great to have classes for the kids especially during the Summer Holidays.
I recently dropped off my daughter at a summer camp near the East YMCA and decided to check out the Body Step and Body Pump classes by Wendy and Bertha. Their enthusiasm for the workouts are so inspirational!!! I also loved the Aquatic class in the indoor pool!
By the way, the air vents in the women's showroom at South Valley YMCA are very dusty and needs to be cleaned! Please pass this message to Facilities.
Thank You!
