Member Testimonials
The coaches do an amazing job. I like that they reimburse for parking.
Small classes, great 1:1 support!
I am very happy with the pool, instructors and guards. I think everyone else is too
Miss Christine was fabulous and did a great job with our son.
the Y ROCKS!!!
Such a great program! The instructors are top notch and the speed at which the swimmers gain new skills and confidence in the water is just wonderful.
Well maintained and attentive lifeguards. Most appreciative of the early morning Masters Swimming program, particularly the on-deck coach Art Schmehling. He works with every swimmer on specific improvements and is very affirmative of our workouts. Better still for the Y, he interacts with other swimmers, helps them find lanes to swim in when the pool is busy. He's a great Y living/breathing PR person just by being himself.
KidZone
It is well organized with great coaches. My daughter plays with one of her friends and loves it. They all get a chance to play and learn the game and have fun together.
Sheila is always helpful teaching our class. We appreciate everything we have learned!
The teacher caters it to what my son already knows. It’s been great for him!
Coach Art is amazing!
Great pool, good hours.
Because is clean and new. And many things to do, and resting.
I love the atmosphere and I love that there are things like the sauna, steam room and jacuzzi in gendered areas. Makes me feel more comfortable. The classes they offer are fun and I love that there is financial assistance
Great atmosphere
Great selection of equipment. Friendly staff
beautiful facilities. (Love the windows all around the lap-pool) , clean (!!!) locker rooms, very nice staff. The jacuzzi in the women's dressing rooms is a great place to meet people.
I like the easy free parking too.
Love that they still have racquetball courts. Great selection of equipment. Great track.
Fantastic pools.
i didn't use the facilities, just came to see them. i usually use the Y in Grandville as i live closer to that facility.
Lots of parking. Rodney at front desk always makes you feel welcomed. A very diverse crowd in workout areas makes you feel at home regardless of your abilities. But much wait time on equipment. All good!
There are so many options and beautiful amenities. I'm also really grateful for all the childcare services should we need them one day--it's great to know that I'll still be able to take care of myself and my health.
I love the Y! Just wish there were towels in the locker room.
Diversity with the population inside the facility. Beautiful building and constant upkeep to make it enjoyable to be around.
Great instructors, friendly, helpful staff. Clean. Good class times.
Convenient location to get to from anywhere in Grand Rapids
Best combo of child care and equipment of any Y I’ve ever been to.
Racquetball courts. Staff in kid zone is friendly. Nice views of the city from the track.
Variety of classes. Friendly employees.

I love the BodyPump class as well as all the other class options (and times). I also like how big the track is, and in general just the overall ambience of the gym.
