Great group exercise classes
Mostly like the early opening hours. Also enjoy the pool with a good water temperature. Nice staff and folks I work out with every day.
Love the exercise classes.
I personally use only pool due to my health issues and I like everything about it!
I enjoy water aerobics MWF. I am 84 years, and this is my physical exercise.
- Friendly staff that feel like a family
- More outdoor space than other Ys I go to
- Big fan of your weight loss program with Rachel and crew
Group exercise classes
there is something for everyone!!!
Friendly staff, high quality instructors, real sense of community
Aqua classes. Wish you had a class Sunday and some 5:30pm classes during the week.
Everyone is welcome and classes include options for every persons abilities
I’ve been going to a personal trainer at the Y for about 8 years. They are professionals, friendly, and easy to work with. They make me feel like I am part of their family.
I yearly give a sizable donation in thanks .

Very nice facility , indoor pool is great. small cozy environment with friendly staff and coaches
Great classes, great community
Good variety of exercise options.
I love Jan's Saturday morning class. Very thorough.
The other group dance classes are mostly too loud for me (and others in my 60+ age group), even when I wear ear plugs. All those young people are going to pay the price at an even younger age than we did unless something or someone convinces them to keep the music in the “green” decible range. I’ve been going to Zumba classes at Northwest since the acoustics are easier on the ears there, but I really would prefer to stay at Southwest. :-(
I like swimming in the pool.
Would like more lap swimming times.
So many choices!!

The water exercise programs and friendly pool staff (mostly).
My husband uses the workout room and I go to water aerobics and use the workout room.
What I really like are the members who are so friendly, down to earth and smart.

My work schedule is not traditional 9-5 I typically work 10-7pm so I appreciate being able to attend a evening group exercise. Happy to see that the lobby is updated and the lockers with digital locks. I hope the women’s locker room will be next to receive an update. The women’s locker room in Mt.View looks like a spa.
I only use the bike, sit down machine where you use or legs, and tread mill in the machine room, which I enjoy using.
In weight room, I use all the machines where you sit down and select the weight you want to lift by putting the pegs in a different hole.
I have never used the indoor pool. I used to shower in the YMCA after exercising, but now I shower at home.
I'm 85 years old, and I believe that the family membership for my wife and me contribues to our good health and is an excellent value for the money.

Nice swimming pool with the sun roof.

I mostly just use the gym equipment, and I like how the staff clean the machines and keep the place very clean.
