Member Testimonials
I like the Body Pump classes. Heather is a great teacher. It would be good to have more reliable substitutes, so when she is gone, Kaitlyn doesn't have to be in her place.
The pool is lovely and I really enjoy the sauna. There's a great range of classes and I feel a sense of community going there.
The People
It's the best Gym by far in cleanliness, friendly staff and affordable.
It works for me. Great desk staff. Close to home. Clean and good equipment. Fred Merchant
I love YMCA very much!
The staff is excellent, in many ways . The boulder location have been improved to make it much better.
Variety of adult exercise classes, the gym.
Staff are friendly and welcoming, most equipment is in excellent condition, and the facility is well kept and clean.
The community of people all supporting each other in thriving and moving as we age.
The teachers who encourage us, know us by name and make us laugh and work harder.
The breadth of classes and things to do from spin to Pilates to pickleball to the weight room.
The people who greet you when you walk in the door.
Aquatics in a warm pool!
1) Variety of classes
2) Machinery/weights etc. to work out individually
3) The low pressure vibe from instructors and friendliness/welcomingness of other Y members, especially in classes
4) Good value for the money
Suggestion:
1) Offer more afternoon fitness classes, often there is nothing or very little starting from 1 pm to 5 pm, while sometimes there are 3 things going at a time in the morning
2) Start all classes on the hour so people have the option of doing 2 in a row rather than having to choose between 2 because 1 starts say at 9 am and another at 9:30 am
I love my Zumba class, and I wish it met more than once a week!
I like that the staff is friendly and helpful.
The main thing I would change is to lower the temperature of the pool so we can vigorously swim again!
Convenient, indoor track, nice people and lots of services for many different needs.
Unfortunately we haven't gotten back into the pool...
Friendly and clean
I talk about the Y all the time. I joined in July 2024, I attend classes regularly, enjoy the equipment, and have completed some Personal Training classes. The community is lovely encouraging, and welcoming.
Clean. Nice staff. Not too crowded.
Convenient, friendly, pleasant environment especially since improvements. However, the equipment at Longmont Y is superior.
Weights, machines. I would like to see a padded or carpeted dedicated stretching area
The location is convenient.
The exercise machines are comprehensi.
The YMCA participates in Silver Sneakers.
Great location, nice staff, warm swimming pool!
Very friendly. Good classes. Uncrowded gym. Opening hours are generous. Parking is easy.
Free morning coffee is great.
The "Y" in Boulder is very well managed and staffed with friendly, efficient people. Whenever any equipment stops working properly they try hard to get it fixed and back on line. Also, even though the facility is small for a city the size of Boulder, it has a very fine inventory equipment and is rarely saturated with people where one has to wait for a machine or other equipment. Probably most important, the janitorial staff keeps the place clean and odor free.
Indoor track and exercise equipment
friendly people.
Please bring back the assisted chin-up/dip machine!
I would like to see additional yoga classes offered with new yoga instructors. More of an active flow/Vinyasa platform.
People and place.
I LOVE the warm water pool temperature! This is the only pool in Boulder which so wonderfully gives us seniors a place to swim and exercise in warm water. Also, the facility is very clean - the staff is helpful and welcoming. I like the efficiency of being able to scan my Y keychain card, and scoot along to the locker room. No standing in a line. Thank you for being there for us.
Friendly staff and good selection of cardio, free weights and weight machines
