Member Testimonials
It is like family
I like the layout, the indoor track with the city view, the treadmill/cardio equipment area with the city view, the basement free weight room, and everyone from the employees to the members are always nice.
Libby's Saturday morning yoga class is just what I need after a long week, and she is a very patient teacher for all experience levels.
Excellent YMCA!! Friendly staff, always helpful. Adult class are challenging and rewarding. Classes start on time and end on time. I would like to see more Zumba classes but over all an excellent Y!!
The staff is amazing and I love the community feeling of the Downtown Y.
Taking Silver Sneakers classes.
Great environment to meet people, make new friends, have a laugh
…oh yeah, and get some exercise
We’ve been coming to the downtown Y For many years. We love the atmosphere and have made many life long friends. Enjoy the classes offered and hope it doesn’t change too much. We live much closer to the Southwest YMCA but still come downtown.
Wonderful place ! Very friendly with everyone.
Very nice and clean in the steam room and sauna. I love come here everyday to enjoy and relaxing. Thank you and keep going good jobs.
The staff makes the Y. Most everyone is super friendly, especially the front desk. Always helpful.
Pretty good facility, good group activities, good staff
My family feels very safe here, it’s five minutes from home, staff is always so kind, when my kids were little we used child watch, my son now swims for the Sharks, and I use all the gym facilities. We LOVE Central Y!
VERY friendly staff and always helpful!
I also appreciate the smaller population that uses this Y. It has more of a personalized feeling.
The instructors!
I like that I'm greeted every morning when I walk in and am told to have a good day when I leave. I need to probably take more time to get to know the names of the staff, but the fact they do this feels good to me.
The people are great! Staff and members alike, the crowd downtown is friendly. I like to feel part of that community.
Staff is very helpful and friendly
I love the water aerobics at the downtown location. 10/10 do recommend to all my friends. The last month and a half have been life changing. Kate and Dora are magical humans who do such a great job of caring for their community. Also love the early mornings. The staff is super friendly and the facilities are always spotless. Just all around a magical place. Can’t thank y’all enough. And huge shout out to Eddie Blue for hooking me up with the membership!! He’s really out here caring for his community!!
The YMCA is the first place I have ever felt like I was truely a part of something. It has gotten me into self care though working out which previously i was not into the gym environment. It has carried me through some tough stuff.
The community is great, fills my needs.
Cleanliness of locker room, showers, steam and sauna rooms. Very friendly front desk people.
I love going to the pool for Zumba and for Kate Black’s class.
Kate’s aqua class.
The Central Y is a very convenient location. I like the smaller venue compared to the larger facilities out in the suburbs. Amazing, professional and friendly instructors leading the group exercise sessions.
The people. The classes. The friendliness of the staff.
Staff is pleasant. Facility is just right for me.
Clean, user-friendly location and very friendly staff.

Love the hours of operation also and also the option of joining the health center on the second floor. Love the hot tub.
Community! There is nothing like it.
The experience at the Central Branch excels in all aspects! I appreciate the YMCA's dedication in community engagement, creating an enriching and supportive environment. I also enjoy the programs and opportunities offered at the Y!

I love the staff! And being able to play racquetball.
