Wonderful community center with great class offerings. Clean and welcoming !

great facility with a terrific range of classes and options.

The variety of classes and activities

I have been a member for over 30 years. I love the JCC, near my home, with all the activities and classes I want. In recent two or three years it has even offered more. I especially love zumba, pilates, and Tai Chi. The instructors are wonderful! And I have a trainer who is skilled and kind. So it's my place!

Things that I am happy with: State of the art gym, court, pool facilities Modern looking entrance, friendly and helpful staff Things can be improved: Cafeteria, food options, outdoor seating to have a cafe sense while waiting for kids activities or even spending some spare time

I use the gym (and personal training and Pilates in the past .) Everyone I have worked with has done all they can to help me get better and stronger. I have rehabbed from chemo, an ankle fracture, and now a shoulder fracture. I fell fortunate to have access to this facility but the staff is what makes it all work.

Clean, well run, quality appointments, has everything you can think of in regard to working out.

Parking getting to be a real problem - especially when camp is session. You should maybe hold some member etiquette clauses especially for younger members in the gym workout facility. On the whole, enjoyable, clean and well managed.l

Adult exercise classes, indoor pool. Cleanliness of facility. Friendly, capable staff.

Jill Meyer's "Forever Fit" classes are spectacular, as is she!

The warm and helpful staff, and the opportunity to work with a terrific personal trainer in the Fitness Center.

The many options for different activities, also the indoor pool.

Good instructors, varied classes.

Not overcrowded

My son goes to the ELC and it's the best thing ever! The whole spacacious area during the winter is very much appreciated and all the outdoors activities during the summer are awesome.

It is a terrific facility! It is a beautiful building with a feeling of warmth and community. The offerings are plentiful and diverse. I take advantage of some of the classes. Although there are all ages, I particularly appreciate the programs for seniors or people that are not as flexible as they were. It is inspiring to see people taking these classes and combating the aging process. I have had some personal training in the fitness room which has been great. JIWEN has a wealth of knowledge in functional training and Luca helped introduce me to weight resistance training, which will work to my advantage as I age. Overall, I very much enjoy going to the JCC several times a week. And the people are so warm and friendly!

Great facilities- new and clean- friendly people-much variety of classes etc. keep up the great work!!

Great facility, staff and variety opportunities for folks at any ages!

Facility gets nicer every year. Front desk, security, membership, weight room and most of all Daniel at the pool are all kind and professional. Seeing all the kids gives me optimism.

A pleasant place, where I exercise with Lauren Duke Yoga, and do weight training with Marianne. I like the fact that people of all denominations and ethnic backgrounds are members, too.
