Member Testimonials
Very nice new facility. Highly recommend.
My instructor was great. Her name was Rhiannon. She was kind and patient with me. She broke down steps so that I could understand each move. She helped a great deal with my breast stroke and was teaching me the butterfly which is super hard.
She had a sub on my last day who was also amazing. He did wonders for my front crawl. I forgot his name but he was great. All I know is his superpower was that he's missing an ear so he doesn't have to worry about water getting in.
The instructors are very passionate and always take a moment after class to briefly share my child's progress. The student-to-teacher ratio is well-managed—having fewer than four students per class is ideal in my opinion. My child has made huge progress, and I’m so grateful for their attentive and thoughtful coaching!
the coaches and staff are terrific!!!
State of the art workout equipment, nice layout, clean facility & love that it offers pickleball play.
It’s my third swimming classes with YMCA ,the trainers are great in what they teaching.Facilities and the staff are so helpful as well as friendly even for the beginner swimmers.
My child really enjoys the YMCA experience. She has an excellent instructor and has made great progress in a short amount of time.
The recptionist was so kind and helped an elderly gentleman get set up on the treadmill.
The woman at the desk is very kind and sweet
Clean facility, full towels & friendly staff.
I like that when I go it’s not very crowded. The machines are good and lots of free weights .
What I don’t like:
People sit on a machine and read their phones instead of being respectful to others to work in a set while they read their emails . It’s very inconsiderate and is very prevalent at the lake highlands gym. I see there is a code of conduct in the gym in small print in one spot by nobody ever goes . My suggestion is to periodically put up a sign on each row of machines indicating not to sit and let others work in . The trainers should emphasize this as well when teaching new people to weightlifting. There are many times that I don’t get a complete workout because of this . My wife timed a person that does this and he was on the machine for almost 30 minutes. I’m not talking about squats machine or free benches etc it’s the row of machines in the middle. Please do something about it. Like I said , it doesn’t have to be permanent but put a small sign on each machine periodically to remind people to do a set and get up so others can work in .

Exelent
I work in the area and live in Michigan, I have always been very impressed on how nice the YMCA's are in the Dallas area, I changed my membership to Dallas Y's as I use them more that any other area. they are clean and people are always friendly and helpful. the Pool is what I use, I am a lap swimmer, I get my mile workout in and out. Lake Highlands is the one I use the most.
Super clean, friendly staff. Pool open past Labor day.
