Member Testimonials
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 Y in Gig Harbor is a happy place. I go three times a week ...so many cool classes. I love the Zumba and downstairs Monday work out. I meet lovely people and everyone is doing something towards making themselves healthy . Thanks so much. Ann Stockdale
ps. I love petting the huge service dogs Monday morning.
My daughter, Mabel, was in Gatlin's swim lessons this session and it was the first positive experience she's had. She struggles with social anxiety, which gets confused with fear of the water, but he was so welcoming, understanding, and patient with her that she was able to participate in class and enjoyed going. I wanted to share with you what a phenomenal instructor he is. Thank you!
My daughter, who is taking her first swim lessons, was very nervous midway through week 2. She was afraid to do things the other kids were doing.
Sandi, who was instructing a group of adults noticed this and jumped in with my daughter to assist. Her obvious experience and initiative paid off immediately. She quickly gained rapport with my daughter and guided her through all of the drills that day, and the next day. She promised to assist for my daughter’s last lesson tomorrow. My daughter already trusts Sandi and is now doing almost everything the other kids are doing. Sandi’s experience, initiative, straightforward instruction, and willingness to help are invaluable to the YMCA.
financial assistance because I'm WAY too poor to belong otherwise
Friendly staff and a great facility
Staff is so professional and welcoming! Facility is beautiful and very clean
Time and exceptionally documented detailed info provided by Susan in sign up and trainer Shelly. Shelly went above and beyond on assisting and me with equipment set up and appropriate weights as well as recommended classes. She also will provide more reinforcement at follow-on appointment.I also joined the chair yoga class and enjoyed it. Overall, a very positive first visit.
Love the adult swimming lessons. Sandy, the instructor, is wonderful.
My husband and I love this YMCA! We recommend it all the time. So many different classes and facilities. Great instructors, and different experience’s. Thanks for all you do!

friendly and helpful staff, clean facility
Classes and facility.
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!
