Nice variety of classes, but it is the people who make the biggest difference. Everyone is friendly and encouraging. This includes the staff and the members. I am delighted with my home YMCA. Wish I had joined sooner.

The atmosphere is great - everyone friendly, but not pushy if you don't want to socialize that much.
I still work some days but there is always a class or activity I'd like to do regardless of time or day of the week.
The instructors are always motivating and some of the best trained I have come across. I feel there is always sufficient warm up and cool down in each class, which really helps guard against injuries.
Another passion of mine is Pickleball - there is a flexible schedule and being inside means we can play through the summer.
I bought my kids up at the Y - first as participants, then camp counselors. And now their children are also involved.

We think Coach Tara is wonderful. She makes the swim team so fun for our daughter. She is encouraging to the kids, challenges them, and has really helped our daughter to become a stronger more competitive swimmer. Coach Tara makes the swim team experience such a positive one for our daughter and for us as parents. We feel really lucky that she's been the one to introduce swim team to our child. Her enthusiasm for their effort and for the sport is wonderful.

Love the variety of classes & the awesome instructors.
My 2 complaints would be:
1) the class I regularly attend is Jump Start. The classes accommodate too many people. It's a safety issue.
2) ladies coming in from the pool use the main ladies room when they are dripping wet resulting in very wet floors & toilet areas. Another safety issue.

I like the new signs telling people to get off the machines/weight benches if they're just scrolling on their phone. Hopefully people will take note. People really camp out on the machines doing absolutely nothing.

Good group fitness classes, but it would be great to move some of the Tuesday/Thursday classes (yoga/barre/mix fit) to Monday or Wednesday. I like a bunch of classes on Tues/Thur but hardly any on Mon/Wed.

My son has played basketball for the past few years and he has had a great experience. It is the perfect opportunity to play with refs and get to be a part of a team without a daily commitment.
