Member Testimonials
My husband and I just came back to the Gig Harbor YMCA after a long absence. We were greeted and treated like we had never left. We got a new introduction to the weight machines on the second floor and great personal guidance by Shelly. She is knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and very kind. She gave us a great “re-start”. Shelly even offered to see us again next week to check our progress and answer any questions!
We are so happy to be back and will recommend our great YMCA to family and friends.
Thank you!

People that like to work with you and help you get your workout done right!!
I don’t see where you ask me about opportunities to improve. You need to go on an emphasize program to get people to quit sitting on a machine looking at their phones for anywhere from 3-10 minutes in between sets. I encounter this every time I’m there. Front desk says not their job and differ to athletic staff who are not around consistently. Very frustrating and to be honest, quite rude by the “sitters” and not great workout effort either.
Breadth of activities. Great weight room set up.
Like about = Instructor No Music! I could hear the instructor.

Like about = The Y Event on Wednesday evening was so much for fun my grandsons, daughter, and I. The Navy Band was wonderful, the slide, bouncy house, water guns, balloon art, fishing pole game, kazoo parade etc. were delightful. The staff and hula dancers were perfect and what a surprise -- a delicious dinner. We couldn't stop smiling. Thank you so much.

friendly staff I feel comfortable being there.
like about = I love your HIIT classes - especially the T/Th evening. They are small classes with and easier pace than the larger morning classes. The weights are essential for me for bone density concerns. Thank you!

classes, friendly people, clean space
Very clean. The staff are very helpful and friendly. I like that there isn't a time limit on the equipment. This is by far the nicest YMCA I have ever been to. Skip made registering a very pleasant experience. Even though I was only in Gig Harbor for a week he suggested that I sign up for a month due to the fact that I frequent the Y almost everyday.
I will definitely go to the Y again whenever I'm in town.
I like the staff, the variety of work out equipment, variety of work out classes.
Paige, preschool swimming instructor is amazing! Encouraging, safe, and enthusiastic in all interaction and teaching to my daughter. It is reassuring knowing my daughter is learning water safety and life skills. Thank you Paige!
Love having a safe place to get my daily steps in no matter what’s going on with the weather.
Enjoy seeing people of all shapes, sizes and levels mobility working to get into or stay in shape.
Also love the friendliness of all staff!
Thanks for helping me keep moving!
The facilities are truly excellent! We have appreciated the variety of equipment and opportunities available, how well the facility and equipment are maintained, and the cleanliness. The staff is consistently friendly and helpful, and the schedules are always up to date and available. We love it here!
The Tom Taylor Family YMCA is exceptionally well-run, well organized, and very friendly. I have been there when a very large number of members were taking classes, using equipment, walking the indoor track, and it was still organized and functional.
I am very glad that I am a member of the Tom Taylor YMCA.
been a y member for 45 years, my child went to y camps now in my old age am a walker and enjoy the pool, I do notice that the y is very crowded now with all growth in gig harbor may have to build another
Staff are very friendly and the facilities are great. The Y accomodates a variety of activities to attract all ages and interests. I have been a member of a number of gyms through the years but the Y has been the best by far.
The staff

Friendly staff!
