Member Testimonials
Team is friendly!
There are so many options that I have a hard time making a choice. Many instructors encourage us to work at our own levels instead of pushing ourselves to the point where we either get dicouraged or injured.
Good equipment and great staff.
Relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
I am 65 and Group classes are just right for me but also right for any level of fitness. Classes are plentiful and the times convenient. The vibe at the Y is welcoming and fun.
I like it because of the group classes, especially the Pound ones, and because they include daycare. Most of the staff are also very friendly.
There seems to be activities for all ages. From senior strength & balance classes to the famous YMCA swim classes.
Amazing staff, wide variety of activities.
Good
I like the pool. Sometimes I use the weight room, but the pool is where I spend most of my time at the YMCA.
I love the group exercise classes at the South Valley Y... the instructors are the best!! They are engaging,fun and make you enjoy working out.
I like the price of membership
Right now I am just using the gym to rehabilitate my left leg several times a week.
The substantial variety of productive equipment available and, moreover, to staff, to a person, is knowledgable and most helpful to all of us.
The swimming program at YMCA is great; the swim class instructors really know how to teach and the kids appear to enjoy it.
Good length of the lessons. Very nice and skilled instructors.
Good variety of classes.
El trato de las personas en recepcion e instructores es increible, son amables y serviciales , mi hija a aprendido a nadar y ella es feliz de asistir a sus clases.
My daughter has learned a lot and gained confidence being in the water. The lessons are great in the way they keep building on the students skills.
Staff is well trained and follow procedures well. Staff is also able to pivot if I ask for help or to change something by accommodating me or by referring me to their supervisor - this helps me feel very heard and I appreciate getting a quick yes or no answer.
Outdoor water aerobics 3 great teachers, great exercise, and lots if fun. The students are lots of fun too!
The swimming program was great. My 11 year went from barely being able to swim in February (though dearly wanting to) to comfortably being able to swim laps with her face in the water. It makes me feel so much more comfortable as a parent letting her go places with water with her friends. Even though the instructors were all students (I am assuming High School) they were great. They were so patient, kind, and helpful. Great job training them YMCA!
Everything!!! Large variety of classes and the instructors and staff are so welcoming and enthusiastic.
Aqua fitness helps me strengthen my body and improve flexibility. The comrades keeps me coming back.
Friendly staff. E-Gym and pickleball.
staff and instructors, clean building
Pound is my favorite class by far. So many times, a fitness class has music, but the moves are never in sync with the music, so what's the point of the music? Pound solves that problem perfectly, as every movement, even the stretches at the end, are in perfect sync to the music. Vanessa is an excellent instructor as well. She gives very clear instructions, mirrors correctly (when she says "left", it's our left, but she's using her right side to allow for correct mirroring), and is cheerful, friendly, and remembers everyone's names. Thank you so much for offering Pound with Vanessa!
The eGym strength training equipment is also a favorite of mine. It really takes the intimidation out of gym strength training equipment, and is so efficient. If everyone is paying attention and rotates after each exercise, you never have to wait for a machine to free up. It's great that the machine remembers your seat position and training weight and adjusts everything instantaneously as soon as you tap your key fob to log in.
The towel service is another fantastic feature, as it makes it very convenient to take a shower and not have to carry your own wet towel home. Thank you so much for providing that!
Excellent facilities and staff, especially Jaiyden
The group exercise classes—good variety, good teachers, having a great experience with them!
Good variety of activities specifically for seniors. Only complaint is very crowded aqua exercise classes. Way too crowded! So, I just go to to rec swim time and do my own thing—which works for me!
Wide variety, at different times and skill levels, so it's easy to find something to suit.
