Member Testimonials
Area spacious for all types of indoor fitness programs with state of the art equipments. Everybody is nice, helpful and the fitness floor leaders are really good.
Clean neat roomy surroundings, decorum and safety is stressed with disinfection after use.
I enjoy the Northwest Family YMCA experience. I walk and run on the track. The only difficultly I experience is members not following the clearly posted track rules. Parents still allow under 12 children free access to the track and do not have the children at their side. They let the children run free which is a safety issue for all.
The track rules need to be upgraded to state "Please look both ways prior to entering the track" "Please do not stop and talk of the track unless it is an emergency". "Please look over your shoulder before moving or drifting from lane to lane". These are all safety issues!
I hope this is helpful.
The facilities are always clean! The staff are beyond friendly, as a parent of 4 kids it's nice having a place with so many options for activities in one place and the price can't be beat!
I love going to the Y. People great and the facility is always spotless. Especially love the therapy pool.
Pickleball open play!
They offer a variety of options for your health and other hobbies too
Pools and variety of fitness machines . Ladies shower drains on left side could use some cleanser or something— moldy smell. Maybe some eucalyptus in the steam room?
Friendly morning staff
The evening can be crowded, but the equipment is fairly well maintained and everyone is respectful of the other lifters. 9/10.

I love how friendly everyone is. I can go to the gym and not have to worry about being judged. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Everything
I love the variety of Active Older Adult classes and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.
I love the way the gym/weight area, feels like a real old fashioned gym. Some of the other Y’s have nicer areas, but not that real gym, weightlifting feel. I also love the turf area for people to practice sports. I love that there’s a physical therapy office at the YMCA. And, all of the staff people are so friendly and so helpful. Monika is a great personal trainer. It’s nice to see people of all ages working out there.
I do hope that this YMCA gets some upgrades to the parking area and it would be great to see the outdoor area upgraded so people can use a basketball court for instance. It would be nice to see upgraded weight machines and additional free weights. I know the other YMCAs in the area seem to frequently update their machines, but I think Manlius has been overlooked. Keep up the good work! The Manlius YMCA is definitely a hidden gem.
Enough machines for everyone to use!
Staff, facility, the offering/programs the Y offers.
