I have been a member of the YMCA for 2 years now and it truly has been a blessing to be a part of such an awesome community. The staff is so warm and welcoming every time I come in. I have been working with a trainer who has been like my cheerleader! I always know that whether I’m having a good day or bad day, a day at the gym always makes me feel better. I have found many friends through the YMCA. Thank you!!!
Friendly staff, clean facilities!
This is a modern, well maintained facility. The workers are friendly and very helpful.
super flexible and easy to work with to get the camp. I need to do better about using the rest of the membership, but part of the hiccup is trying to find time (on me) that matches with classes I'd want to take
The staff, the community and the available equipment and classes are what sets the Y above other gyms.
I feel welcome every time I walk in the door. Very cheery staff! I like the indoor track during these hot days, the machines, and the pool to cool off in after a work out!
I like the fitness equipment, indoor track, pool, and personal trainers!
I am enjoying my membership and classes. I would like to see different classes at the poole ymca. More of a variety like kick boxing just some new classes.
The variety of exercise, things and making of friends. I like that you give back to the community and charities.
Everything
Mr Matthew was so amazing this summer. Our family had a lot of changes happen which caused us to have to rearrange our schedule. Mr. Matthew was so kind and helpful. Edgar had a great time at camp, with his friends.
We will be back next summer!
My daughter likes the camp here and the counselors. They all seem to know her by name, even after not going for weeks and make her feel welcomed.
Wonderful staff, courteous service, very clean facility.

I always look forward to Bodycombat on Saturday morning! The staff and instructors couldn't be more welcoming and encouraging for the diverse fitness journeys we're on. ☺️
Very convenient to my home. Always staffed with friendly folk and ready to assist with any equipment if needed.
Friendliness of the staff and instructors.
Willingness of staff to help answer questions.
I love the fact that there are classes that you can take, trainers who will help you achieve your goal. There is so much to offer Poole Family YMCA. There is a pool, basketball court, track, workout rooms, and more.
Everything was great 👍

Very friendly and welcoming environment for all types of members. Everyone can feel good about working out regardless of age and ability level. You don't have to be a Barbie or Ken doll to fit in. Thrive activities are great, especially the Strength-Balance-Flexibility classes and the Zumba Gold. Instructors offer variations to accommodate different skill levels. Senior group activities and outings seem fun. Great community atmosphere. Would love to see an inside pool at this location.
