I have been doing swimming lessons for the last two months at East Communities YMCA, and I have had such a great time. I started taking beginner adult lessons with Jen back in July, and she was wonderful. So patient and helpful. I gained a great deal of confidence in just a month. I have also attended her Aqua Fit classes on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and they are amazing!
I began intermediate adult lessons in August with Ruvi, and he is such a gem. I felt so lucky to have such a patient and upbeat instructor as I progressed to more challenging swim strokes. He has the perfect feedback style for my personal preference. He's clear and firm with his instruction, but he also cheers me on even when I'm not perfect. He's truly the best!
I have also had fantastic experiences with the front desk staff and other individuals around the Y. Your entire staff has made me feel very welcome.
Cardio Dance Fusion on Mondays and Thursdays, taught by Charlotte, is the best class I have ever taken and has brought me true happiness this year. It is the best decision I have made. Elena’s body pump class is also the best. So motivating. We are lucky to have them.
The Front Desk staff very friendly, helpful, and professional. My Trainer Clarence Aqua and Senior Fit is great and engaging. The group of people are also friendly.
Gym is rarely overcrowded. The group fitness classes are easy to register for and have plenty of space, plus the instructors and content are very approachable. Front desk staff are very nice, swim lessons for kids are affordable.
I enjoy the neighborhood atmosphere. There is no red state/blue state turmoil; no gender or culture checks; no citizen disrespect. It is a refuge from confusion.
