Please put in the Drop in Gymnastics that is closed during break week
TRACY was the most excellent teacher - Please hire full-time
friendly staff and members. need more water weight. They have been falling apart and disappearing for a long time
Any thoughts of adding a step class?
I love yoga aerobics all of it. I've tried tai chi 2 times. The man talks quiet, and he keeps his eyes closed so I cant hear or get assistance
Scott greeted me with a smile - so welcoming. Asked if I wanted a tour and paged Kaylee who walked me through with a smile like she was showing me her house.
Climbing wall, open courts, pool are great! Please move the air hockey table back to the front. We have come in a dozen times to play and it is always locked up. Tks!

Thank you for being a Family YMCA and valuing the health of people no matter what age.
I like that the Y is open everyday and that it offers a variety of classes, especially Commit. It's nice that you can sign up for programs for kids too. I also like that this Y has the best front end greeting staff. For the most part, they are upbeat and lively. We've been to several Y's around the area and the one where we feel welcome is the Pearl Y. Also, I like when I borrow equipment that the front end staff is very helpful.
Always friendly, always helpful, so family- and community-oriented--we love our local Y!
all great service
I appreciate the course offerings and pool access. I wish there was more lap / free swim time.
I love that there is water volleyball at the Pearl Street Y. It really helps with my mobility. I've used other areas of the facility and have always met friendly people and helpful staff.

I appreciate the kindness of people working there. I am 86 and go there to be around people along with getting movement.
I go to Yin and chair yoga with Di. The best classes for me. Di is a gifted individual.
Friendly staff, great instructors
There are several classes that cater to senior citizens to help us remain strong and independent. The hours they are offered make if very easy for a senior citizen to attend. They even have great classes for those with disabilities which is awesome.
I like the variety of options for children's activities.
Great environment n safety.They greet you with respect n courtesy.
The desk clerks are very very very very polite,and caring.

Fondly, a long time member,

Love water aerobics program!
We come exclusively for Zumba Gold. I bring my special needs daughter and sister to these classes T, Th, and Saturdays. This class is their social life circle of friends. We chose this class specifically for the dance inspiration, Latin music and more relaxed pace as they both cannot do regular Zumba( too fast, too loud, too much butt shaking for the senior population to enjoy)
It has come to my attention that the Y will transition away from Zumba Gold to standard Zumba. I strongly disagree with that change because that class( even taken down a notch in speed) is not applicable or appropriate for Seniors and people with disabilities. Rethink your plans and consider seniors and the disabled as people worthy of their own ability appropriate classes. Shawn and Brennah Davidson
I like the friendly greeting and the instructors are great. I can find parking and it is an easy walk to the entrance on the south side of the building. There is a good verity of classes.
Friendly staff. Facility is available when I want it. However, your policy of allowing men in the women's locker room is very disturbing. If I had to use a locker room in order to do my exercise, I would find another facility. I would not recommend anyone with children use the Y.
convenient and friendly
Space in the locker rooms
Long time member; love the friendly family oriented atmosphere; all staff extremely helpful and kind. I just truly wish changes could be made to the new design with would allow for a primate men's sauna in the men's locker room. This is a big reason many men come to the Y, many must to enjoy a private sauna. The new design will be a major deterrent for many men to even come to the Y. I'm sure it isn't too late to make a change!
I Love the Y! I want to help. I am a community inclusion specialist for adults with disabilities and I have loved bring my client to zumba Gold on Saturday morning. Christina (sp?) was a wonderful, high energy instructor. I am concerned about the decision to eliminate Zumba Gold, especially when it has been literally the ONLY accessible class. The joy and comfort we felt walking into a class with able-bodies and disabled people dancing together in a level appropriate class was huge! I hope you will consider how limited the options are for adults with disabilities and how devastating using this class and community is. The y is for all! Disabled people deserve to be included. I am happy to be a part of the solution!
