I like the variety and number of classes offered in addition to the free weights and other equipment. Instructors are enthusiastic and knowledgable. All support staff are friendly snd helpful. And the cost of my membership is affordable. A huge plus!

Clean, lots of amenities, convenient location, friendly staff
The staff is incredible. I grew up at the YMCA and have been associated with quite a few. The Finley Y is by far the most integrated, and truest version of what the YMCA values at its core. There is something very special about Finley. It’s not the best facility but it has has something else that is very uncommon, and very significant.
Great Zumba Gold instructor and class!
Everything
Pretty good as always! Except for the locks locked me once.
You have more flexibility in the scheduling of your yoga classes than other branches. That is helpful to those of us who are not morning people and aren't ready to exercise before 10AM.
YOTA actually delivers on its stated mission. The community at the Y is comprised of people who have self selected membership. I particularly enjoy the Finley and YOTA staff and volunteers who contribute their time and treasure in support of the mission.
Excellent staff, class offerings, and facility.

The instructors
I love the camaraderie in the classes……I look forward to the people!
I joined last October of 2022. I was a long time member previously but after my heart attack in 2012 I stopped shortly thereafter. My main concern to rejoin was new heart issues I was having and in case of an emergency I needed staff trained to deal with these issues. Three weeks after joining I had a Ventricular Tachycardia event that was life threatening. With help from staff at the YMCA I was taken care of until EMS could arrive. Thanks to Lisa Strong, Paula Ruff and other staff I survived the event and have had no problems since.
Thank you, First name removed
