Member Testimonials
Ms Sally is a great instructor. My kids absolutely love learning how to swim from her. She’s very patient and kind with all the kids.
The teachers are wonderful. My kids look forward to the lessons each week.
It would be nice if the level 1 classes could have 2 teachers. The kids who are typically in level 1 (ages 3-5) tend to have a short attention span and get ancy quickly. With 2 teachers, managing kids’ behavior would be easier as the kids won’t be sitting and waiting their turn so long. I’ve noticed the kids get bored quickly and start misbehaving, which causes safety hazards. Its hard for 1 teacher to manage behavior while also teaching kiddos to swim.
Most of my kids learned to swim here. It's wonderful that it's included in the price, just like gymnastics (and used to have taekwondo). It's one of the main reasons we maintain our membership.
They are well run, good instruction. Sometimes lower levels have more. Than optimal numbers enrolled, but higher levels are good!
Family friendly. Lots of programs and activities: lessons, teams. Equipment is in good shape and well maintained.
Friendly staff!

Multi generational, multi cultural. Clean and well kept. Friendly staff. Plenty of programs for all members who are mostly supportive across cultures and generations. A microcosm of how we ought to live in the world outside those walls.

There are a lot of activities and classes that are free with our membership for my son and I. The workout equipment and areas are always clean and organized. Arnie definitely makes sure of this. Mike makes sure all of the equipments are working and functioning properly. These gentlemen along with your staff are always friendly and helpful. Going to the Lakewood YMCA will always be a part of our life.

Variety of community activities, spacious workout areas and equipment.Many family-friendly events and great staff.
The facilities
The very attendant employes, the large amount and variety of activities welcoming you, just a great activity that draws you in.
The dressing room and showers are great. Because there are hooks to hold towels and shower stuff, and because the showers function well, using the pool goes smoothly. The water exercise instructors are a big draw for me; they're upbeat and knowledgeable. The Lakewood Y is a great facility.
The pool, sauna, and group exercise classes.
