Everyone there is respectful and there are so many exciting things to do. I love being able to walk on the indoor track & get in the jacuzzi & pool while my son works out in the fitness center or play basketball.
I like that genuinely everyone goes to the Bryan Y - there’s no “stereotypical” member in terms of identity, age, etc. which makes it clear that everyone is welcome there to pursue their goals, whatever their goal may be.
My rating isn't about programs or activities. Everything is great, except the family locker area near the pool. Lockers 5 and 19 are continuously full despite saying "Day use only" this has occurred for many months now and inhibits the use of the lockers by others who only need them for a few hours of a day (especially on busier days).
good availability for lap swimming, perfect water temperature. The variety of classes for group exercise is great. I like that it feels like a community place....
I love the fact that the Bryan YMCA offers a variety of programs that is inclusive of different ages, fitness levels, economic and professional backgrounds. It provides family type of atmosphere.
The beginners swim class has been perfect for my grand daughter. It was exactly what she needed to get more comfortable with the pool and techniques. Her instructor was patient and attentive.
I love doing the water exercises as I'm unable to exercise out of the water due to numerous health issues. The instructors take into account my problem areas and limitations. I've only been going for about a month so far, but I've already been able to see improvements in my mobility, weight, and strength. Without this resource I would be unable to get the help I need to improve my health and my life. Thank you!
I use the Y for my own supervised workouts which are usually in the mid afternoon. I do enjoy seeing a variety of people and activities in the gym and in the weight room; seeing this makes the Y different from any other workout facility. People from all over the city regardless of their background attend, they look at the Y just as I do, at the very least that's my impression.
I like the friendliness and smiles of the staff. I also like that the equipment is kept up to date, even when something is not working it doesn't take long to ser that it has been repaired.
