Member Testimonials
The coaches are amazing! This is our son’s first time doing an organized team sport and he is loving it. I think a lot of it is because the coaches are so kind and encouraging.
The friendliness of the Y employees!!
The variety of classes is very appealing, and the facilities are clean.
Pool
flexible hours
The friendliness of the staff. The variety of offerings. The close proximity to my home.
The staff is amazing, the hours are great, the equipment is awesome and well maintained! However, 100% of my preferred workouts involve walking the track (I don’t care for treadmills) and getting my cardio in. I know there is going to be a remodel in the basement weight room area to take the track away and make more usable weight room and core exercise space but this will remove the walking track. When the remodel happens, I won’t be coming back to AE Finely even though it’s the closest facility to my house, because it won’t have what I’m looking for for my workouts anymore. That being said, I know it’s a popular request and you listened to feedback to put this change into place, so please know you have an excellent facility and there are no hard feelings. There ARE other Y facilities with an indoor track and I can always come here for swimming if I want to change things up. Thanks for great service and a beautiful facility!
I have been going to the Y for decades. The facility is nice and I enjoy staff members such as Jean, Gerald, and Kevin.
The chair, yoga classes, and the thrive classes at the Y are so good instructors are wonderful, warm and caring and really stretch you without making you do things if you have limited mobility. I have gained both strength and flexibility through the chair, yoga classes.
My only issue is everything fills up very quickly and you have to sign up within an hour or so or you will get shut out of a class. Sometimes it’s easier to pay a flat fee at parks and rec for yoga or another class where I know I always have a space in the group.
Great teachers and classes.
proximity, cleanliness, very friendly staff
Enjoy the companionship and great people there!!
The expansiveness of the yoga and water aerobics programs.
Love the instructors! Love the class offerings! Love to see yoga yin classes during the day on Thursday and Fridays!!
The facility
Variety of classes and multiple classes offered throughout the days of the week. Friendly staff. Location!
Everything! The staff, classes, pool and gym. Everyone is so friendly and helpful...the facility is immaculate and inviting.
I enjoy the outdoor pool and water aerobics..I have tried to use the indoor pool but the chemicals are overpowering..
Customer service on the premises.
The feeling of community
I love the classes, the community, the friendly staff, and the amenities. You get access to so much without having to pay the kinds of prices that are common at other gyms.
One specific request though: can the locks on the changing room doors in the women's lockers room please be fixed? The handicap lock is the only one that slides over enough to comfortably close/lock the door, but the other two locks can only slide until they are barely touching the frame, making the doors super easy to open. It's really annoying and makes people use the handicap stall. I haven't encountered someone needing the handicap stall while I was using it, but I could imagine that being extremely frustrating for them if that happens often.
Laid back atmosphere and convenient hours
Staff is very responsive with communication and instructors are very knowledgeable and encouraging.
Great place for the last thirty years+.
You attract instructors and personal trainers who enjoy what they do and create very good classes.
Fitness is fun at the Finley Y.
Diana was a great and enthusiastic instructor. My daughter will be back for another round soon.
We just joined the YMCA. I do not know why we have waited so long! The employees have been so nice to us, the class leaders are so encouraging and the the facility is very up to date and fun. We are looking forward to spending many hours here in the future!
My family and I really enjoy being part of the YMCA Family. We think it is part of us, and it has helped us develop good health habits.
Friendly staff and members. The equipment downstairs provides well rounded resistance training. The walking area a big plus.
Everything!
But, mostly the welcoming attitudes of the staff, all the way from check-in throughout the experience.
I love my regular classes, the instructors are so great: Marianne, Molly, and Heather.
Everything has been so organized. I love the app. The coaches are superb. The jerseys are great. I definitely will recommend to other families! I would love to see more sports or age leagues at the Finley.
