Ashley was really attentive to each child. She was knowledgeable in teaching the kids different ways to survive in the water. She would correct the child when they were moving their arms or legs wrong and showed them how to properly move them. We are very pleased with the daytime class this year and enjoyed seeing each child improve from the first to the last session. Our little one has came along way from last year swimming lessons to this year. Thanks YMCA

I enjoy all the options available at the Y to exercise my body . I play pickleball regularly with great people, lift weights in a variety of ways, occasionally go for a swim, and I just enjoy the atmosphere. Everyone is friendly and welcoming.

The Smart Start orientation is very helpful. John was very knowledgeable and explained in detail each machine which was very helpful. He also helped me devise an exercise routine that works for me. I used the gym the next day and was there for 1.5 hours. I plan to do water aerobics as well.
