Member Testimonials
Location and access
Welcoming people, many activities offered, accessibility.
Tennis facility is excellent
Group classes.
That atmosphere and how pleasant the staff was as soon as you walked through the door. This was my first time at this location.
I love going to YMCA for aerobics classes. The variety of Different classes helps us to hit all muscles groups. Very Grateful for this opportunity.
Tennis courts are cool in summer!
I like the teachers in the group fitness classes.
This Y has a particularly genuine, and personal feel to it. Most staff engage willingly with eye contact and offer of help, the classes are accessible, instructors very engaging and skilled. Not sure what happened to the 3.0 tennis league this summer, seems to have dried up. Veronica has done a tremendous job of keeping it going for a number of years I really appreciate what she did. Hopefully it will re-constitute itself with more interest and participation in the future.
In the meantime Drumlins has a group of 3.0 players which the Director organizes 3 days/week on a monthly basis. When I talk about the Y a number of those players indicate they'd love to play at the Y, didn't know about the league. Not sure what the solution is, things have a cycle.
Keep it up, a vibrant, happy place, well done!
I love the classes and atmosphere of the Manlius Y. The childcare experience is also a huge perk! Friendly staff and excellent instructors!
Equipment and pickle ball open court and clinica
The TBS class is awesome with Elena and Monica! They are highly motivating and encouraging! Thank you for all you do!
staff is top notch. full range of services. The Manlius YMCA is a model facility that all other YMCA facilities should strive to achieve the same level of service and operation.
They have the types of facility equipment I use. Location and hours of operation work for me as well. Staff are nice.
The employees are constantly interacting with the gym users.... Lots of positive facial and body expressions. I and my family feel like we are appreciated as customers. The gym floor staff are responsive to questions and positive in the way they deal with issues. My teenage boys have learned better exercise techniques and are more understanding of the gym because of the employees they interact with. 10+++ for best gym on the East side of Syracuse
A wonderful atmosphere to exercise in and very friendly staff.
Love the yoga classes. Small class size works well due to room size. Great instructors.

All of the camp counselors and individuals involved in making summer camp run smoothly have been great to work with and are very helpful and responsive when I've needed information or had questions. My son is having a lot of fun at his first summer of camp and we look forward to returning next summer.
Counselors and Director are terrific. Excellent oversight, easy to communicate with everyone, and love how well the counselors and Director all stay informed as well. Appreciate the security of the facilities as well.
