Member Testimonials
Great equipment and friendly staff.
My wife and I joined exactly ten years ago. We enjoy the Mon, Wed, and Friday classes for Active Older Adults. The classes are marvelous and the teacher is wonderful, Jan Hudson.
She teaches normal exercises but also how to get up from the ground if we fall down.
Also, gathering and meeting other people of our age is good for us. It gets us out of the house and meet wonderful people. We socialize with them and enjoy ourselves.
The employees at the Y are very nice. Damien Vega is excellent. He has moved on to a higher position but always says hello to us when he sees us.
Thank you Scottsdale Paradise Valley YMCA.

I have been a member for many years - I love the Y & I love the people who work there - the best in the valley! I love the variety of the classes, the way everything & everybody is taken care of - super. It's my home away from home 🏡 Sincerely, Kay Thompson
Love it, wish they updated the place a little bit more, and fix the play area for little ones.
I like the group exercise class for older adults that Jan gives. She’s such a wonderful teacher/trainer. Being an older adult I need a class like this. And all the YMCA staff are so welcoming and supportive. I love the Y.
I like the familiar faces, the cordial greeting, the locker room and its shower, not to mention the clean workout areas and the variety of equipment at my disposal. Classes if I so desire by professional instructors at varying times also the occasional seminars on health related issues.
Front desk knows your name and greets you with a smile every time!
Friendly staff and lots of equipment for strength training!
The staff and volunteers at the front desk are very friendly and helpful. They seem to know everybody's name. The equipment is superb. When I go in the morning I rarely have to wait for the equipment I want to use to be available
has what I want to be available for exercise and fun
friendly staff. Need to make sure the sanitizer wipes are always available. A lot of times the cartridges are empty. I always bring my own just in case.
Area always clean.
I love the yoga classes and the experience of the instructors. I also enjoy the socializing with the other members in the classes. The YMCA is a nice positive environment with friendly staff and patrons!

The Y is a great mix of ages and a casual, friendly environment. People are there to work out rather than looking pretty. There's a great mix of cardio, weights and classes. You have great instructors especially Jan Hudson who is so talented and works so hard and develops a connection with participants.
