It's been fantastic. It would be nice to get towell service back. But the rest of the experience has been great.
I love the wide level of swim classes offered, and I think the small class sizes are great for individual attention! My only wish is that more of the youngest classes could be offered so class sizes could remain small but more toddlers (like mine, who unfortunately never made it off the wait list), could get into the intro classes.
Hot tub, sauna, walking track, very nice staff
My daughter's teacher, Suzie, has been so encouraging and patient with all of the kids in her class. I appreciate her attitude and warm disposition because I think it makes all the difference at this age (3)!
I enjoy the Dave D Huntington YMCA. The greeters are so friendly and welcoming and my personal trainer is really helping my with my osteoporosis! I’ve made significant progress and plan to continue. I also enjoy the classes, especially the YOGA class.
Miss Melissa is amazing with kids. She is extraordinarily patient and gentle while teaching them how to swim
Art is a great instructor. The workouts are great and I love the community that comes out to swim
Well kept dressing room and pool. BUT what is MOST liked is the terrific work that Art Schmeling (sp) is doing NOT just for the morning Master's program but also as a terrific ambassador and advocate for the YMCA swimming. He helps lap swimmers with their workouts, affirms and encourages them in an inatrusive but positive way. He even adjusts things so swimmers waiting to swim can get in the pool the moment one of our lanes becomes available at the end of practice. I hope you folks know how big an asset Art is for the Aquatics program at both DDH and MFB. And that's even before saying how significant a difference he has been as on deck coach for the Masters programs at both Ys. For all skill levels, including inexperienced lap swimmers to the highly skilled, he works with all of us, giving encouragement but more importantly, helpful skill training and corrections in our training. I can't say enough positive about his way with everyone. You have a YMCA asset that you don't want to lose, that's for sure.
The group fitness classes have well-informed, energetic, and motivating instructors.
The staff was friendly and attentive to my son
The convenience of the program and friendly staff.
Staff was very helpful
the many things you can involve yourself in as well as people you can meet.
It's so diverse, great facilities and super nice staff.
Great instructors!!!!
First of all. my heart is warmed every time I walk in the front door and encounter Rodney. He always puts a smile on my face! ( In fact all front desk folks are genuinely welcoming!) After that , lots of positives. Plenty of equipment so no waiting even at busy times. I love the diverse group of members using the facilities. Continue to welcome and attract these folks. I fell like I fit in regardless of my status. The place is clean and that’s important to me. Well done. I’ve been a member since 2008.
Melissa is amazing and very good at what she does my child was very comfortable with her and she made her feel more confident. I would love to have her teach my baby how to swim from watching her with the little kiddos she is GREAT I don’t think I would really want anyone but her teaching my baby.
Shelia is awesome she helped my autistic son very comfortable in the water again in the deeper parts. She understands how important his needs are and how sensitive he is to touch she has used other ways to teach him without having to touch him so much.
Ella is great she really works to make sure each of her swimmers understand what she’s showing them and comfortable doing it.
Thank you guys for what you do!
I love my adult swimming class! As a beginning swimming I am gaining confidence learning the new strokes and receive lots of great feedback and encouragement. Best of all, it's fun! Melissa is an amazing swim teacher!
Our family has had a great experience with the Spring Sports Sampler class at DDH on Tuesday evenings. Our son has enjoyed each activity presented. The instructors are energetic and focused on making sure the kids have a great time. I would recommend this class to other families who want to expose their child to different sports to see which ones they like before signing up for an entire season.
The instructor is great and my daughter loves going to swim lessons.
I enjoy seeing all kinds of people working out. It makes me very happy to see kids there with their parents.
Really cool space with lots of great opportunities!
Everything
I love the group classes, WERQ is my favorite and I'm glad they have so many different instructors and time slots. I know it might seem trivial but I also love the free coffee. I wish it lasted longer, sometimes it's gone by the time I'm done with my workout!
The whole family can go at the same time!

Super friendly staff, love the variety of classes, always clean and fun. I love the Y!
