Teachers are very patient and they work with the child's abilities, making them feel comfortable and at ease.
Expertise of instructors. Professional and very personable. Lots of individual attention. Pool is always maintained well.
I like that my Y membership is covered by my health insurance. As a senior citizen on a fixed income, this is very important to me.
Recently signed up my 19 year old daughter for membership (Name removed). She has a disability, so I went along with her. Wonderful front desk staff and an easy process. She felt welcome and enthusiastic about starting to use the YMCA!
The classes, the instructors, and the very friendly front desk people! I love that the Y is a place of community.
Everyone was very welcoming, from the staff to other members to the instructors. The facility is “cozy” and not overwhelming for someone new to the exercise/gym scene like me. I also like the range of classes offered. Some facilities have a snobby elitist feel but I felt very at home here.
The coaches are great, and the team has a friendly and welcoming vibe.
Amazing community and wonderful facility!
Great friends and a supportive environment.
Juggling activities for three kids and also working, I have found the Orcas swim practice schedule to be really convenient. The later night (8pm) practice times have been really helpful and allows my daughter to get to almost every practice.
I love YMCA! With that said MANY people who attend classes such as Zumba and many other classes are highly unpleasant and try to start fights with everyone. These people believe they own the place and don't welcome others even members like myself who have been a member for many years with kindness. There are constant shenanigans regarding spots and not following rules. It's highly exhausting and makes you not want to go just to avoid stress. They use words like “I am special, I've been coming here for a long time” etc...its like attending high school with bullying trying to make trouble rather than welcome members because all are equal.
Availability of equipment and hours
We love the way things are going so far!
My duaghter has gained new skills and a passion for swimming. But do wish the team at all age levels felt more like one team. There doesn't seem to be team comradery
Friendly people, convenient location, variety of activities offered
A great community and a great place to be healthier!
The price can't be beat. Couple that with the instructors' professionalism, skills & their passion to serve their students, the Y is one of the best things in the area and definitely in my life. I've been taking yoga classes at the Y with various teachers on a consistent manner since this past April. As a certified yoga teacher, I recognize a good teacher who has been properly trained. The Y has many talented yoga teachers and I am grateful (and lucky!) that they are there. Thank you!
That is has a little bit of everything for everyone.
I have always loved the YMCA and been a big fan for as long as I can remember. Our entire family have been members over the years, though our kids are now grown and live in other cities. But they both learned to swim there and my husband and I have frequently used and enjoyed your many classes and programs. I recently re-joined after leaving during COVID. It is great to be back.
Kyle is amazing!
