The only complaint I have is that the no phone policy in the weight room is not enforced by the staff. Members are thus required to act as 'monitors.' I have seen one encounter nearly come to fisticuffs. When seeing members sitting on machinery, scrolling, or texting, staff should kindly-but sternly- ask them to cease and/or relinquish the equipment to fellow, rule abiding members.
I don’t really participate in anything but cardio and weight machines- but the facility is clean, the machines are well maintained, and it’s a safe environment.
I really like some of the instructors. I’ve developed personal relationships with them and they really understand and encourage me. This Y also has a very active and encouraging weight room environment.
First and foremost is that Wade Walker is a friendly place, with smiles, greetings and encouragement in abundance! Secondly, it is the closest Y to me, and has excellent equipment and resources. There is a warm, welcoming vibe there. My only complaint is that some people "camp out" looking at their cell phones while others are waiting for a station to be freed up. I suggest having signs around the room encouraging people to be aware of others waiting for various stations, and if lots of people are there, suggest limit 2 sets per station in such cases.
I like some of the classes. I would like to see a consistent daily schedule, for example: Body Pump Monday, Wednesday, Friday 10 am, rather than the current schedule with random classes throughout the morning.
