Sophia's Story - Member
I love it [at the Y]! Overall, there is plenty of equipment, prices are budget friendly compared to other health clubs in the area, it’s always clean, the staff greets you and is always smiling, my family loves the pool and programs for the kids… I could go on and on!
Since becoming a member in 2022, I’ve fallen in love with exercise, lost 50 pounds, and become so much stronger thanks, in all honesty, to the wonderful staff and environment at the Y. I started my journey taking group fitness classes (so amazing and a ton of variety) which eventually made me comfortable enough with the gym environment that I started tackling weightlifting also. I feel like there’s just a comfortable, non-judgmental environment from both members and staff that I could try new things and fail and not be embarrassed or feel out of place. But the cherry on top of the cake is the Kidzone. My kids actually beg me to come workout so they can go play. It has been the primary factor in my being consistent with the gym. I can tell the staff care about their job and about my kids which makes me feel no guilt about dropping them off and doing something to take care of myself. We have done multiple of the Date Nights, which is such a nice offering.
I would give up so many things in our budget before giving up our Y membership. It’s been life changing!
