The wide range of activities throughout the day and into the evening means there is always something I can do. It f I don’t want to do a class the gym and pool are first class.
People are friendly - this is not a facility that you have to dress up in expensive gym clothing. It is welcoming and encouraging to all, regardless to age, fitness level or what you wear.

Lots of classes to choose from. Have made many good friends at the Y. No judging. I have never been made to be inferior because I do not have a perfect body.

We had a fantastic experience with the YMCA swim class. My 4-year-old son looked forward to every lesson and made real progress in just a few weeks. The instructor was absolutely awesome—patient, fun, and great at keeping the kids engaged while teaching them important water safety skills. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a positive and confidence-building swim experience!

The facilities are clean and orderly.

Staff at the front desk are always friendly and welcoming.

Instructor Diane is the Best!
We really enjoy going to her group class for Active Older Adults on Mondays and Fridays.
Diane is full of energy, starts on time, is always upbeat and changes up the routine for every class.
She gives good, clear, ongoing verbal direction on how to get the most of each phase of the class and offers alternative ways of doing each exercise for those that may have difficulty with certain moves.
We always come away from her class feeling like we got a good workout.

My whole family loves this YMCA. The classes, the kids club, the gym space, the pool, the racquetball courts, the staff -- all of it! We are so thankful to live nearby and have this be a part of our daily routine!

Very good low keywork equipment although I should report the front desk folks look bored and not friendly in greeting you.

I am a past chair person. I was on the board at its inception. I have been a member most of the time here. Before that I was a member of the downtown Y and was on the board there as well. I appreciate the philosophy of the Y and this facility embodies it.

This Y offers many services, programs, and resources for families and people of all ages. It is always a clean place. The energy here is positive.

Conveniently located, friendly, responsive staff when there is an issue. On the weekends, however, stay on top of cleaning the bathrooms and have someone regularly check the antiseptic wipe machines.

I love the YMCA competitive swim team. Coach Colleen and Coach Brendan are wonderful with the youth swimmers. I only wish that Upper management were more supportive in helping the coaches be successful with their swimmers, especially at the Desert Foothills location.
