Staff great. Always feel welcome and cared about,
Love my Y. The classes I pick are just what I want at the time of day I prefer. The instructors are uplifting and have a good sense of humor. This Y makes exercising something I look forward to, not I dread.
Fun classes and friendly atmosphere
Gym just recently replaced all of the equipment in the fitness centre. They eliminated most of the machines that I used to use. Also, the new elliptical are worse than the ones they had before.. not as many functions.
Great place to meet people to play pickleball.
Super staff! Super facility! Super program (MASH)!

It is very expensive at $50.00 per month as a senior. You have to be able to use it a lot to make it worthwhile. I may still join. I have been on silver sneakers, but I was forced to leave a Medicare advantage health care plan. the cancer center no longer takes advantage plans, so I lost silver sneakers. The people were great, but pricing is high.
Wonderful facility, staff and classes
The welcome I got when I checked in. I was attending a class for the first time and the woman who checked me in, walked me over to the classroom.
To many kids on their phones tying up machines. Nobody monitors this. I find myself wondering around waiting on machines to free up. Not a fan of the new equipment.To many unusable leg machines taking up space when we could use some missing machines. I hate the new Smith machines over the old ones. I spoke with Carrie about this and she seems handcuffed about getting certain things we could really use. She says we are only aloud to to purchase precore machines and they don't have some things we need. No standing calf machine. They are playing with the music, classic rock when I get there and they change it to poppy music. Stay with classic rock!
Staff is super nice and the facility being updated is really nice too
Very good facility! Only request is to open at 9am on Sunday like other YMCA’s do. The cost to do so is not very much for a big benefit to members.
i love the y
Very friendly place with lots of great classes offered.
All the fitness class instructors are awesome. They encourage, support and inspire me to keep going, do more and make my day better because of their smiling faces and fun approach.
The group exercise classes are great, and so are the instructors.
Membership is too expensive
Only drawback is expense. $50.00/ month too much for this senior citizen
You guys are very polite and serve customers with smiles that deserve respect and I highly recommend others to join the Big Y
The Precor equipment is the nicest of any gym I’ve ever been to
Location and amenities meet my needs.
The renovations will make it a state of the art facility. The staff is always welcoming and regularly visible throughout the building, making you feel like a valued member.
I look forward to coming to YMCA twice a week. As soon as you enter into the front , I feel I belong there.
Micheal is super leading person there. He is so good how he approach members or member to be with his top manners and kind gestures. He is very committed to what he does for YMCA. He is also so trust worthy ...
I find Rocco in Gym is also so good how he treats and helps new commers with helping them how to use each machines.
He is very pleasant and willing to help us at any time when needed.
Thank you .
Need better class schedules and different classes like drumming and water and more silver sneakers
The John Geigle Y is a terrific place. Well rounded classes, good teachers, great facilities. Always helpful and friendly.
As a fan of yoga, pilates, and flow classes I find the Monday Wednesday Friday yoga classes to be my anchor for the week. They are very welcoming, challenging, great people, awesome teachers, and I look forward to those days all the time we live here!
staff is great, very knowledgeable and personable
I enjoy the fitness classes, however they are over crowded. I suggest making some changes…either allow less people to participate, use larger rooms or add more classes. Please don’t tell me that it’s because the snow birds are back. If that’s the case, you should be prepared for that to happen every year and to make the changes needed for everyone to participate and enjoy the YMCA. It’s not fair to cram as many people as possible into a room.
It's a well rounded place to get a great workout. But I've now had to quit Body Combat (my favorite class) because it's too loud. The new sound system (which is wonderful when used correctly) has been the final straw. The instructors ask during the first song if the sound is ok, then continually turn it up as the class goes along. Conveniently, the "noise meter" has been disconnected for some time so we can't tell exactly how loud it gets. One of the other ladies had to leave early Wed (Feb 11) because even after taking out her hearing aids and putting in earplugs, it was too much. I use earplugs too but it's not enough. The Y should be a place of health and wellness yet our hearing is regularly and consistently ignored. I am aware that others have complained, I've complained before myself, but there has been no change made (that isn't maintained over time).
Love my group clases, the instructors are excellent, my favorite class is Zumba with Nancy on Mondays at 11am, makes me happy.
Super clean, even with the construction!
This Y is very well managed and considers all members with very high standards. The gym associates are very helpful and friendly, and keeps the gym clean and in order. Also, the music volume is not extremely loud which makes working out more enjoyable and stress free (unlike the Palm Harbor Y which plays so loud that one can’t hear through our own earphones).
The class instructors are awesome and words cannot say enough to show gratitude.
It’s an excellent facility. Clean and well run.
I like the clean atmosphere, I will recommend it to my neighbor I want her to come with me, but I do wish the main exercise room was a little bigger, and that it would at least stay open until 10.PM
I love coming to the Y. It’s part of my daily routine.
Enjoy the atmosphere and the facility is top notch.
Classes need to have a capacity limit! They are overcrowded which make it impossible to get the appropriate equipment needed for the class
Great instructors and it looks like the facilites will be much improved once the upgrades ae complete
The St Pete branch has more offerings like a sauna
The staff is very friendly, helpful, and knowledeable. There are enough exercise machines so that waiting is minimal on busy days.
There is a Saturday body pump class that had often run over (Cameron is the instructor) into the Zumba class. I spoke with Nick and Kari about this while the class is finally ending on time there is always the clean up left yoga mats, weights and people lingering in the middle of the room while we are trying to warm up for Zumba. I believe it is Camerons responsibility to encourage her class to clean up after themselves. The average age of the Zumba class is 70 plus. We would not want one of these ladies to fall and hurt themselves. It is the disrespect from this class and only this reason why I give this review. Everyone else is wonderful. Note add a cardio drumming on Sat the class is popular and there is always a wait.
Everyone is made to feel at home and staff is always ready to help.
I find the Y to be a clean and positive environment. I am grateful amd excited to get back to my physical and mental wellness.
The Tai Chi class is wonderful. I also like Cardio Drumming. The staff is always friendly.
The staff is marvelous--kind, friendly and knowledgeable. It is a great experience to come to the Y. The facility upgrades are super and ongoing, again, a great thing. For us it is so convenient to come, as we live about a mile a way. We feel blessed grateful for this.
friendly helpful staff, nice equipment, convenient location.
Every time I go to the YMCA I feel great. Enjoy every minute I'm there.. The people are very friendly.
Friendly staff, great classes and caring instructors
The John Geigle Y has a great staff, fabulous group fitness classes with exceptional instructors. There is a state of the art workout room. The facility is kept clean and it is well organized.
