Large, cool room for Silver Sneakers. The Victory Y, though nice, is too crowded for me and gets too hot during exercise due to less ventilation and fans. I had to stop going there because of that.
But, that's just me. I love the Tom and Ann Bunnicutt YMCA. It's "COOL"! And I love Jackie, our trainer.
My 3 year old granddaughter has only been in a pool a handful of times. She was extremely nervous about taking swim lessons the first day. Now she is excited and can’t wait until her next lesson. The staff has done very well at supporting her and giving her the nudges that she needs to improve each time.
I signed my grand kids up for swim classes this Summer at the YMCA. I was pleased with the facility and staff. The swim teachers did a fantastic job teaching my grand kids. They had a great time while learning much! Thank you YMCA. I recommend this facility!!
Our daughter had historically struggled with swimming and had a great deal of fear going in to her lessons at the Y. She had done a variety of swim lessons in the past (both group and private), with very little success. In this month-long program, she made more progress than she had in years, leading to her being able to independently backstroke, tread water for 20 seconds and significantly reduce her fear of getting her face in the water to almost zero. We could not be more thrilled or grateful for this program!
Julie the Aquatics Instructor as well as all YMCA swim instructors are exceptional! They are compassionate and very knowledgeable about swim strokes, techniques and building team spirit ! Highly recommend Tom & Ann Hunicutt Swim Team of Newport News!!
