The patience and care extended to my daughter when she exhibited a fear of swimming.
Good company to work for October. I will be there two months.
Great classes and instructors! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Only problem is parking- the spaces are very narrow and there sometimes there aren’t enough of them.
My husband and I have been members off and on since we were kids. We love the YMCA! My kids have attended camps and after school there over the years. My son recently worked as a camp counselor this past summer. We absolutely love Ms. Katie!!!! Ms. Katie, Ms. Suzanna, Ms. Liz, Mr. Amir, Mr. Khalil, Sarge aka Mr. Blanks have all helped to raise our kids and we will forever be grateful for that. ❤️ I often encourage my coworkers to give the YMCA a try.
The people and staff most of all. It's a welcoming place for all and I am so comfortable there. Classes are great and varied. I love being part of this community!
The Instructors, the feeling of community and support.
I like that it’s not just a gym or place to go to swim. The Y is all about community. When you’re there you feel like you’re part of a family. All of the instructors and wellness coaches are always helpful and will stop to talk to you and answer any questions that you have about the Y and its classes. They have a lot of community health programs and a lot of group classes to choose from. All of this for one price, you couldn’t get anywhere else. The Y is all about helping to make the community healthier.
My entire experience has been over and above what I anticipated. The staff and classes offered are of exceptional caliber. I am blessed to be able to participate in the Y’s offerings through the Silver and Fit program. I am looking forward to regaining strength, stamina and balance through the classes you are offering. The facilities are beautifully maintained and very up to date.
Thank you for all the hard work and effort put in to make your facility shine. It clearly shows.

Calm relaxing atmosphere with a gentile and great teachers
Saturday lessons at the YMCA have been a great option for both our children! Our family schedule doesn't allow for attending lessons during the week, so having a weekend option has been perfect. Classes are small, and both of my children have been pushed to improve, but not to the point that they become scared or resistant to learn. My kids have made such great progress in their swimming abilities that we plan to continue year round for at least the next year. The swim instructors and program leadership provided thoughtful recommendations on if/when to move each child up a level both in person and via email. It was clear that they gave much thought and consideration to each of my children as individuals and when they suggested a plan for progress. Thank you so much, YMCA Swim Lesson Staff!
Great instructor, let the kids go at their own pace with no pressure.
It was a great experience for my little girl who is only 18 months old. I love the techniques they taught to get the babies comfortable in the water. Definitely use them while we’re in the pool with her.
Staff was friendly and helpful while I was trying to even schedule the lessons. The coach was patient and attentive. My grand daughter was comfortable in the dacid. When she comes back next summer, I plan to enroll her in summer camp there.

Individual lessons.
Excellent instructor.
