I enjoy Anne Foerster's aquatic exercise classes very much. She's an excellent instructor, allows individuals to go at their own pace but always encourages us to do more. She's very friendly and accommodating, adding several classes over the last year or so. Anne is a real asset for the aquatic dept. and they Y as a whole.
The lifeguards need to do a better job of keeping families/children out of the shallow end of the pool during the Monday evening class.
The last time the pool was closed for maintenance I could tell that some significant and much-needed cleaning had been done, which is not always the case. Also, the lighting was improved in the women's locker room and surrounding areas.
The front desk staff are usually very polite and welcoming.
The programs that they have for family's.
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?
The child watch program is amazing! Gym/facilities/equipment are always clean and in good working order
All the options for everyone in the family. Something for everyone.
