Member Testimonials
We recently dropped YMCA for a senior sneakers gym that accepted our insurance. After two visits to the “said” gym and finding several broken pieces of equipment as well as a filthy pool and dirty gym in general, we went back to the Y! We are so happy we did. The monthly payment is worth having a clean environment with quality equipment and a beautiful clean pool. As well as always being created with precious friendly staff. Never will we leave the Y again. We do wish the YMCA would accept our Senior Sneakers offered by Medicare United Health Care. Our income is fixed and with everything getting more expensive we worry about losing the ability to keep paying for our workouts.
Large, nice layout, small towel service
Love the Y! They are the friendliest team of people. The yoga and group X classes are awesome! (I wish they had more space to expand classes, because they are all great!) love the pool, I do wish there were more hours of open swim, but I understand staffing and programming can make that a challenge.
Please stay open later on the weekends!!!
Cost, duration, instructors.
Excellent instruction, instructors are awesome. Small group instruction - 30 minutes right amount time.
fair pricing, swim instructors personal attention to the kids.
My kids enjoyed the lessons. I like the smaller groups as this provided more 1:1 versus a group of more than 4.
The program was very organized and the teachers were friendly and helpful to students and families.
I wish the advanced classes could develop stamina by swimming the length of the pool.
Meet all my workout needs. Good place to play pickleball. Friendly staff. 22 year membership.
Good management! etc., etc. etc.
Sunday, we wrapped up our 4-week-long swim lessons!
Sadly, my tye-down swimsuit wasn't cooperating but luckily I had this maternity swimsuit I bought years ago lol
For my final lesson I learned how to backstroke:VERY HARD!, float on my back and paddle my legs back and forth, opened my eyes underwater for the first time (I've had my eyes closed the entire lesson), and made it to the 5ft section of the pool for the first time since I was 18.
It was a full circle moment and kind of like a redemption swim.
When I was 18 I had to be saved by a lifeguard at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor because I panicked and nearly drowned when I slid down the ride and into 5ft deep water.
Not knowing how to swim or how deep the water was, I panicked and went under.
Since then, I only hang around waist-deep water: 4ft and below.
I can say I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to swim, and I'm sad it's over!
Looked into signing up for more lessons lol
My instructor said I improved very quickly from our 3 lessons.
I asked her if this means I can swim now and she laughed 😭
She said I can swim if I can swim in 10 feet deep and back. 😭
I gulped and got my happy butt out of the pool🏊🏾♂️
Thanks to Jennifer Pewitt/Associate Vice President at YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas for such a life-changing experience for me and the boys 🏊🏾♂️🏊🏾♂️🏊🏾♂️🙏🏽🙌🏾
Sadly, my hair was SOAKED!!!! Hairbrella what did I do wrong with this #swimcap
Also, after four lessons we discovered there are showers right there at the pool to get the chemicals off. #betterlatethannever
Soooo great!
Also discovered that there was a swimsuit dryer in the locker room?!?
So handy!!

The sports are always organized and the refs are always professional. The staff does their best to keep everyone safe and having fun.
Loved our experience! My daughter was more confident after taking classes at the Y. Thank you!
Instructors Jami and Kelli
Instructors are great! The kids advanced their skills and looked forward to their lessons. We will definitely be back.
Very satisfactory and laudatory. Mr. JOSHUA SCOTT is the best. From my fear of getting into the pool to diving head down from the deep end without instructor help. Thank you Chilton YMCA at Rockwall and thank you the amazing The Y Rockwall swimming instructors!
Kyara was an awesome instructor my daughter improved greatly the 2 weeks she worked with Kyara.
My kids swimming progress is great. They learned a lot from their swimming lessons. There was a lot of swimming time during their lesson.
The instructor was super patient with my 4 year old daughter. You could tell she really loved her job and working with kids.
Very patient and determined swim teachers. Love them
We just attend water aerobics classes but really enjoy them and the instructors.
Clean and friendly
Friendly clean conveniently located
Love the water aerobics classes
Your employees all seem to be kind and considerate. My husband particularly likes his spinning classes. I frequent the cardio machines and other equipment on the floor.
A lot of class choices, gym equipment and convenient hours for customers. The staff is very friendly and helpful as well!
Family friendly, has everything you need
My son loved Angel camp. The staff were always smiling and welcoming. Coming from California my son doesn’t have friends here and from day one he met several friends and was instantly comfortable. Ms. Shannon went above and beyond to help us. Jace is still talking about how he learned to swim. We are forever grateful for everything everyone did to make Jace’s experience memorable. We can’t wait for the next opportunity to participate in more events.
Forever grateful,
Jace and Jessica Brown
The small class ratio, the smiles, confidence and courage given to the kids anoint with the sense of belonging.
The instructors and staff and friendly. Love the classes!
The equipment, the staff and the fellowship while working out.
