Member Testimonials
I love, love, love the Y. I have been a member since 1992. There have been a few rocky roads, but since Dave took it over, there has been a vast improvement. It is welcoming and it looks clean and painted and the outside looks great too. It looks like someone cares. The classes are fabulous. Wish they still had the hot tub and more swimming in the winter, but I am very satisfied with the rest of it. I think it was silly to cut the women's locker room bathrooms down to one too, but I can live with all of that too.
I would and have recommended the Y to many people. Thank you to the employees and to all that make it such a warm and wonderful place to come...

Brad Smith is a FABULOUS trainer. As long as I'm alive and moving, I will engage him as a trainer. He motivates me to come regularly and to push myself beyond what I think I can in the beginning.
I do Jump Start (MWF@9:5) and Active Seniors (MWF@11:30), and the instructor is inspiring. She praises, encourages us to go at our own pace, and injects a lot of fun and humor to keep us going.
I enjoy taking group fitness classes with people who have a range of physical abilities so that everyone feels welcome, even beginners.
We love our trainer Brad Smith and the friendly staff at Tempe YMCA
Welcoming staff and instructors. Programs are suited to my needs.
I love the classes, the instructors, and all of the great people I have met. The bad news is that the facility is old, and dirty. There is no dedicated cleaning staff. Studio A where we have our classes is always really dirty. I routinely have to wipe dirt off the floor and pick up huge dust bunnies. The storage room is unsafe. I hit my head very hard on the shelving unit over the equipment we use. A zip tie that wasn't cut off cleanly on a cart ripped my arm open. But I keep coming back because of the classes and instructors.
Excellent programs especially for Seniors. Reasonable fees, friendly and highly competent staff.
The classes
Cycling classes. Heidi is awesome!
