Member Testimonials
Very much enjoy the faculty and all the offerings. Everything is super clean and welcoming. Staff is always there and ready to assist if necessary. A great place to continue a health journey
Clean facilities. Friendly staff. Convenient location.
Why are your hours of operations so small, especially during the weekend?
The people working there are so pleasant and helpful. Loved the pool.
Everything is neat and clean. The gym is very quiet and big enough to accommodate all gym members. There are several activities other than just weights to get involved in. The staff is very helpful and to have a steam room and hot tub after a workout is the best thing ever.
The downtown Y remodel is quite nice. It’s spacious and clean.
Well laid out facility with friendly knowledgeable staff

The people; the staff and the members. They make all the difference. I'm encouraged to keep coming back.
Convenient & Peaceful!
I really love the view on the wellness floor.
Excellent staffing, great equipment and very convenient location
Living downtown, proximity to my residence is key. The friendly acknowledgement on arrival and departure by the desk staff is a nice touch. The multiple forms of exercise whether it be cardio, weights, or body-weight HIT, not to mention olympic-sized pool action is amazing. The only disappointing aspect is the dressing room area. The low ceilings give it a claustrophobic feel, the lockers are tiny, the seating is minimal, and the privacy of changing is non-existent. This was poorly designed and is not an improvement from the past locker room.
The YMCA has impacted so many lives in the Mid-South through its commitment to Communities First and not Last, The YMCA has been positively impacting lives by creating a safe clean, friendly, healthy, environment to enhance your mind, body, and spirit. Stay Awesome!
I like the mix of having a swimming pool, free weights, and cardio equipment in a convenient location with a friendly staff.
I have been a member of the Y for years. It is, by far, the best overall value when it comes to varied exercise and opportunities for fitness. Partly because it offers so much in the way of classes, swimming, strength training etc, but also because it’s available in so many locations . I work downtown, and swim laps at Fogelman, and live in Cordova and attend Zumba and Yoga classes at the Cordova Y three days a week. Recently, I was out of town on the East Coast and was able to exercise at the Y there. They are all over the country and welcoming everywhere. Aside from the financial value is the value of the down to earth, diverse community of people that I’ve met and become friends with through my classes there. I feel more comfortable working out there because everyone is a regular person like me. I suggest the YMCA to co workers, friends and family regularly! I am always happy to endorse the Y!
Always clean and running in wet area.
No congestion of people. The ease of relaxing and the peace and joy of resting and rehabilitation of the body and mind is "AWESOME".
The woman at the front desk on weekday mornings is kind and welcoming. I look forward to seeing her in the mornings, what a gem.
Enjoy the wet area! The exercise equipment works well. I would like to access the TV on bikes and treadmills. Also, I would like to see a steam room in the Women wet area.
