Convenient parking
Clean facility
I think some person's use of the spray disinfectant is excessive. Some of them spray it into the air we are breathing. It doesn't appear intentional but they are using too much. Those sprays are toxic for the body, and they are coating poison on the seat and equipment.
I suggest that people can bring their on wipes, which will l limit the use of the "herbicide, insectacide." And suggest they wear gloves and bring a towel to sit on.
The classes have helped me stay healthy
The senior program is a lot of fun
Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. The teachers I've had are excellent and committed. I like that the facility is low-key and that parking is easy. It is also VERY close to my house. The app is fantastic and so easy to use to reserve classes and also to do online classes from ANY Y. That's very cool. I also LOVED the sub, Gayla Traynor that you had who works out at Leeward. She was a fantastic teacher. Finally, the price is right. Best deal in town!
My only suggestions are that the morning aqua aerobics is always full. I will have to try to reserve early but I hate to take a spot from the regulars who go every week! Also, occasionally during Zumba the music is interrupted by teachers getting texts on their phones - that is an easy fix if they silence their phone. And, lastly, when I first enrolled I got the confirmation of payment but the email with ALL the information about the app etc came two days later. The initial confirmation should say to "expect an email with your personal code to log on and get started" or something like that. I spent two days frustrated trying to get everything to work. When I got the email it was like, "OKAY!" and everything worked simply like a charm.
The people are pretty friendly and the staff is helpful and friendly. I love that it has a pool which helps with my therapy.
We were visiting friends and family on Oahu for a month and are glad we decided to make classes at the Kaimuki-Waialae branch part of our stay.
A big Mahalo!, to everyone we met, staff and members alike who made us feel very welcome.
Being greeted every morning by Bryan Suka always got our day off to a good start.
Also, a thanks to Yoli, Clint, Kathy, and Lauren for their wonderful classes.
We look forward to seeing everyone on our next visit.
A warm Aloha,

I really think that Dora's gardening class on Mondays is fantastic. She also shares recipes to use from the Tower Garden.

The staff are also wonderful. Carolyn is easy to talk to and very helpful.

Location. Respectful and friendly people. Availability of aerobic classes after work hours and classes are not too overcrowded.
Suggestions: more group exercise hand weights. Newer group exercise computer as current one takes very long to start up.
