I like the choice of group exercise classes and equipment upstairs in workout rooms
I appreciate being able to swim in the pool at my own speed and then soak for a
few minutes in the hot tub.
I also enjoy cycling on the upright bicycle when I'm not up to swimming. It allows
me to get some exercise without a hassle. I will be 83 on the 26th so I know how
important exercise is to my health.
I love the variety of programming offered. I participate in the running, spinning, triathlon, swimming, Body Pump, and wintry mix programs. Jen Hughes, Kim Leonard, Christine Waldron, Penny Noll, Bill Walter, Katie Rey, Danielle Dugan, Jeanne Marinelli, and Sam Sampere are all wonderful and really add to my experience at the Y!
a) the people that work there are very friendly
b) and love that there is no music playing in the cardio (treadmill) room
Note: the Y in Oneida,NY plays awful music in their treadmill room (at least they did years ago
I haven't been there in a while)
I love the programs offered and the warmth and quality of the entire staff.
Michele my water aerobics instructor is fabulous!!
the diversity of people, the friendliness, the pool
The location is most convenient for me, and has a great assortment of fitness classes to choose from. Extra added bonus is that there is a hot tub, and children aren't allowed in it.
I really enjoy the diversity of backgrounds and cultures and ages represented by the peoples who frequent the Y. It opens doors to friendships and knowledge and breaks down barriers to trust and happiness. It is eye opening to the possibilities in true community and brotherhood.
Hal Welsh has a variety of options to exercise as well as to delve in other areas such as pottery. It has child care support. There are areas for group classes, cardio, strengthening, and a pool. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Lots to offer. Great for swim lessons for kids
I love the people that work at the Y because they are so friendly, happy, warm, kind and considerate. The atmosphere is so welcoming because of the staff at the front desk and all throughout the facility. It is such a positive place that I always leave feeling happy and uplifted because of the people that work there.I love to go there and see their brilliant, glowing, smiling faces. I have to say that Lisa at the front desk really is special and treats everyone with kindness and a welcoming smile. When I arrive upstairs, I find Omar always welcoming everyone with a warm smile making you feel like you've just arrived home.
Love the pool and water classes. Great NIA classes too.
