Clean, Convenient and Friendly People
Love all the water aerobics classes and there Teachers.
The East Area Y is a welcoming place with a hugely diverse population where peoples of all ages and backgrounds co-mingle to play and enhance their physical and mental health. Many languages can be heard and enjoyed. Friends can easily be made, and social barriers can be broken. The many programs and diverse activities are open to all to be enjoyed. The group activity leaders and personal trainers are so good. What is not to like?
Staff and other Y attendees are friendly. The Y is big enough for me but not so vast that I feel lost when I enter. The pool water is a comfortable temperature. The sauna is inside the women's locker room so that I can use it after showering.

I love the downtown Y - especially the inclusive rules that are considerate of queer patrons and the key access women's exercise room. Those make the experience of using the downtown Y very enjoyable and will keep me coming to the downtown Y in the future.
Always welcoming!!!!
