I love the classes, the location and the members and staff!
It’s close and it has everything I want. I enjoy the cardio room and the track the most.
I enjoy my time at the Central Branch YMCA. The front desk staff is always friendly and helpful. I enjoy working out in the facilities and the upstairs weight machines are always clean and easy to use.
Not as crowded as our other Y’s
I do believe facility needs to update everything.
Not a complaint but facility needs to put some of members money on updates. Very clean but antiquated. Please put my monthly dues to work Thank you

Friendly staff
Friendly staff, great facility. Extended hours to accomodate anyone's schedule.
Central rules. I don't care what anybody says, other than the Skyline YMCA the Central Branch basement is the best weight room in the city, PERIOD>
#1 is the staff. Amber in the morning is a rock star and Phoenix is always very friendly. It’s a family atmosphere
The water classes are wonderful, especially Lori's afternoon class.
I visit other Y facilities in the Fort Wayne area regularly, first time to the downtown Y. Met a friend there and we relaxed in the health spa area after working out. Rather nice, wish the showers were separated with stalls, but that's really all. Was a nice facility.
Really enjoyed the swim class!
Good instructors!
All the machines for weight lifting and your ellipticals. The spacing of your machines

I love the convenience of the branch and the fact that it's not super busy, so getting on a machine is easy. Also, I take a class with Julie when I can and that is a highlight of my YMCA time! Love the people in the class!
