I love everything about the Desert Foothills YMCA - the facility, the classes, the people teaching the classes.... From the moment you walk in and are greeted by the people at the front desk (who are so nice and welcoming), it's just a great place!
Great staff and instructors. Always updating programs FOR KiDs to Seniors
Clean and cared for.
Close, convenient and has a good variety of equipment to keep your workouts fresh.
I love Silver Sneakers and the great instructor Laurie! I have improved my health and lost 20 lbs in 5 months.
The staff as well as the group of seniors that attend the class is very friendly
Great staff, great classes, good equipment and many friends.
I love the Y experience that both my wife and I have. Desert Foothills Y is amazing; a beautiful facility with amazing staff. I want to particularly call out Jen and Deb, our spin instructors. They are absolutely the best ever, and the community they’ve fostered and nurtured among the spin community is a really, really big deal. Above and beyond that, Elisha Wellman, our mutual personal trainer, is just amazing. I worked with a really good personal trainer for nearly 15 years before we moved here. I didn’t think I’d ever find anyone nearly as capable. With acknowledgement to my former trainer, Elisha is head and shoulders above. Who would have thought I’d find that skill and commitment at the Y?
Now, all that being said …. and Chris are you listening … please take better care of your sunk capital equipment cost. It’s really annoying to be an annual donor to the Y, see the significant capital investment in amazing equipment, and have 5-6 spin bikes not working at any given time …. and the trainer bike consistently not able to connect to the display. You have an amazing asset here, but you’re not caring for it. Please do better.
Thanks.
Mike

The people
The people!
Management and staff are friendly and helpful. Small gym that feels more friendly than larger chain gyms.
All the choices for working out.
Friendly people
Friendly staff, very clean environment, lots of programs to participate in. Website design and navigation need improvement. Multiple names for the same Y location, no telephone support to correct login errors. Local Y staff not trained or have no expertise to help with IT issues. Everything must be done via website.....endless loop of frustration.
Club is clean, staff friendly and helpful. Machines all seem to be in good order, bathrooms are clean. I am enjoying the yoga classes after a four year hiatus because of the pandemic. Thank you YMCA.
I love going to Zumba. Shannon, the instructor, makes the class over-the-top fun. I forget I'm exercising and just enjoy every minute of the music. There is community in the class as well, so, I don't want to miss a single session.
