I enjoy the work out facilities, all the equipment I use is in good shape I walk around the basketball courts and is usually do a 2000 steps stroll (and it’s in an AC environment). I do notice a slight smell coming from the east side restrooms, but I know there a lot children that use that facility and I’m sure it’s clean daily cause the restrooms facilities in the west side are all ways very clean and smell clean!
I like the YMCA facility (the chandler-Gilbert family facility) very very much. I usually go in 4 times a week Monday thru Thursday and it is never crowded, nice place 🤗
I can't speak for other locations, but the Gilbert Chandler y is amazing. Customer service is amazing. People are friendly and helpful and kind and I have observed this personally and while watching others so keep up the great work.
Loved the Ninja classes for my 5 yo son
And oooooo my gosh he LOVED IT TOO
He had such a blast and the room he was in for Ninja class has everything you need to also be a gymnast ;)
He learned ALOT and not just front flips and flexibility, he learned a bit more patience and going with the flow and even more confidence in himself
He had or has an amazing teacher (instructor) Ms. Uriko sorry if I misspelled her name or it’s Yuriko
And also the volunteers were incredible too
Ryker really liked the volunteer Joseph and Joseph was so kind and patient with my boy too
I just loved seeing how excited Ryker would get to be going to Ninja Class and how happy and sweaty he was every time I picked him up after class
I definitely would have to say my son really had a favorite activity here at the Y and it was NINJA CLASS
Thank YOU :)

I really liked the swim teachers ESPECIALLY MS. HOLLY
it was a good sized class
And it was so great that Ryker had some free time in the pool after completing his swim lesson
I do wish the swim lessons were at least 45 minutes
Instead of 30 minutes (it goes by way too fast) and I feel like with 7 kids in swim lessons the child doesn’t get a whole lot of time to learn and practice
Other then that I would totally recommend the Y
Oh ya and they have such flexible hours too
I am so happy I brought my 5yo son here and I want to keep bringing him :)
Thank YOU

Our granddaughter absolutely loves camp at the YMCA Chandler/Gilbert. She is so excited to go every day that she gets up early. She is nine and said, "This is the greatest summer ever! She loves the staff and has loads of fun. We can see her going to the Y for a very long time! We're so happy she is in a safe and very active environment. She loves the Ninja room. She comes home exhausted every day but can't wait till the next day to go to YMCA Camp.
Thanks! Here’s a revised version of your response, tailored to reflect your positive experience with your daughter’s daycare at the Y — within 1000 characters:
What I like most about our Y experience is the incredible care, support, and structure my daughter receives at daycare. From the first day, the staff made her feel safe, welcome, and excited to learn. I’ve seen her grow socially, emotionally, and intellectually thanks to the thoughtful activities and nurturing environment. The communication between staff and parents is excellent, and I always feel informed and involved. I appreciate the Y’s values of respect, responsibility, and community, which are clearly reflected in how the children are treated and taught. Knowing she’s in a place that truly cares gives me peace of mind every day.
Our son learned valuable skills through this program. He was able to keep active during summer break by using the weight room and playing basketball. He enjoyed the field trips, especially St. Vincent de Paul, and the Mercury game.
The staff is lovely and supper helpful. The ambience is super family oriented, makes you feel like a familiar even when you’re a new member. They let you know in a non spoken way that they are trustworthy.
My daughter absolutely loved the TILT Camp program. She was able to gain so much experience in leadership opportunities. She really enjoyed getting to work with the early learners program, as well as the great outside speakers that came and spoke. Great program, and she can't wait to enroll for next summer.
