Loved everything about the level 4 swim class. Swim Instructor Jon was super!

Teacher is great. My son has fun. Love they do both pokemon battles and work in physical activities!

The equipment is good and the yoga class is good

The jujitsu program is amazing! These kids are challenged, coached, and encouraged. the respect and self discipline taught is exactly what they need. They are teaching trust the power of their bodies and how to work together.

Openly post when a class will be canceled.

My son has a blast at Pokemon club. He’s always excited to go & thrilled to show me all the fun things he traded afterwards.

I love the Monday, wed, fri water aerobics, Carla is the best!!!

I enjoy tai chi and yoga classes at Briggs.

Folks at the front desk are always wellcoming!

Staff is friendly and welcoming!

Great value and lots of class options.

Lockerrooms are trash

Classes are great. Short, and somewhat unstructured so far since the kids are so young. I'm looking forward to the older ages when she gets to practice more skills.

Great, friendly, helpful staff.

It's just hard to get to after work for those of us who live/work closer to downtown

The people are friendly, and there are alot of offerings!

There are classes for various levels of fitness

This Y is a wholesome accepting place. The Staff is great as are the Lifeguards.

Great facility with plenty of machines. Always clean and has very friendly staff

The floor of the men's locker room is dirty

You don’t have any afternoon pickleball other than late noon Monday. Very disappointing

I try to exercise at one of the Olympia YMCA's every week. Our Y's have a great variety of classes, as well as pools, bikes, weight rooms and more!

The multi-purpose floor is often dirty to dance on at NIA. The trivia has become less than it was - it was fun - not so much now.
Two of asked if users on machines could be reminded not to sit endlessly on them using their phones. One sign at the end of the the room was put up- thanks but hardly seen be all.

I am disappointed that the gym is so light it is difficult to see the pickleball as it is coming towards me and it is extremely loud you can hear the banging of the balls in nearly every place in the Y. If they were to use the gym at the Shelton Y as a model it would be quieter and not as bright.

Women's shower tile area still dirty/ looks like it is not regularly cleaned with something that will take dirt and mold away. Embarrassing to take someone there. We all wear shoes so we are not in contact with the unsanitary conditions. I have almost brought my own scrub brush and comet to scrub the floors to show a difference.

The receptionists are very frienndly and helpful.

Swim instructors are all very caring and patient. Jeff is wonderful with wiggly kids and explaining techniques in terms they get.

Would love to learn new thing not thw same thing every month, would like more options on weeknight rather then weekends.

Parking is such a pain, especially on Tuesday nights. Please don't have kids sports activities timed with the after work gym schedule. Everyone is coming and going at the same time. It is getting worse not better.

cleanliness in bath room and maintinaince in general

Equipment rack next to the Matrix multipurpose machine is too crowded. It’s difficult to reach kettle bells without straining or moving other equipment out of the way. Also creates bottlenecks because it gets so crowded in that area.

Lack of communication with members and management. Front desk isn't aware of some of policys and changes of schedules. Unexpected changes signs should be much larger to notices..Needs alot of improvement in building up keep.equipments replacement. Need to ask members on any changes that will be making. It affects the members and needs their input, members are using. Pools schedule, closer on scheduled classes, you have member's email.locker room, need one more swimwear spindles. Takes to long to schedule repair also showers hooks, water power in stall not equal with other stalls.

I like Briggs Y FG or all the classes that are offered I don't feel excluded because of my age, I feel welcomed. They have something for everyone

Great offerings, friendly staff and lots of diversity!

love the front desk reception folks around 10 a.m. on Wednesday and Monday and rock star instructor Ashley for yoga! parking is terrible.

Just a bit chaotic and unorganized

They have absolutely horrible parking. I would never invite somebody to join and then know that they will not be finding a parking place for the classes that they wanna take. It’s very frustrating and stressful when I get to the Y and find out there’s no place to park and now I have to come up with some cash to pay the parking meters. You really have to do something about this parking. I love The Y, but I would never have my family come to the Y because the parking is so horrible. Please please do something about the parking.

great facility, instructors and service

The best thing about the YMCA by far, and an area where the Y really shines is that Kickstart offers an actual orientation to all the weight machines with a personal trainer and a body analysis in the small office where I was able to learn more about the true state of my health than i have ever learned in a doctor's office. Wish the personal trainers were an affordable option for me but I am totally priced out of that. Also, the parking stripes are angled for people to enter from 5th ave, but not people coming from Lacey who turn into the lot on Plum Street. Not only insufficient parking but very hard to turn into from Plum St. Often have to pay a meter and park on the street. Keep up the Kickstart orientations as it ensures people a safe and productive workout when they know precisely how to use the machines, and why. And the electronic body analysis is amazing.

Clean up the mold in the shower area and tiles leading into the pool area. Put some hanging shower racks inside the shower racks to hold shampoos, etc. The tiny soap dishes aren't big enough.

I have signed my son up for Tee Ball the last 2 months. The class description says that there will be practice hitting, baserunning. and fielding/catching. The instructor has only had the kids hit off the tee and doesn’t seem enthusiastic to be teaching the class. She is having other kids standing too close to the tee and getting hit with balls and bats due to not paying attention. I understand that this is not an organized team sport at the YMCA, but this just feels like recess for the kids. I wont be signing up for these types of programs again

Iisi signed up for a weight-training class at the Plum Stree Y; it was focused on improving bone density, and was intended for seniors. It sounded good to me as I am a 75 year old woman, and I expected that the instructor would be familiar with working with seniors whose mobility could be limited. I am not disabled in any way, but found both the pace of the class and the equipment available to be very uncomfortable. There was a lot of up and down movement, and that was difficult as the mats we were provided were very thin and uncomfortable, not to mention dirty. More importantly, I was disappointed by the manner in which the class instructor provided direction on what specifically we would be working on (toning? building strength? flexibility?) Afterwards, I was quite sore for a couple of days, which ordinarily would not stop me from continuing in a class (I do like a good challenge)j, but I really felt that I could be injured due to the issues noted above. I would like to request a refund if that is possible, as I am on a fixed income and I would like to be able to sign up for additional training, but my limited budget would not make that possible. I would appreciate a response from a staff person to discuss this further, and to ensure that you understand my issues. My name is Joanne McCaughan and my number is 360-480-2596.

It's just such an average experience. Neither very good or very bad.

I love the facility and especially the therapy chairs but the parking really sucks.

Friendly staff, met some great people and made friends!
The reason for the 8 mark and not a 10 is the inconsistency of the pool temperature. It is extremely uncomfortable to have to go into a cold pool when it’s supposed to be “heated”.

None of the classes are geared towards working people. I miss Sat yoga.

The staff is always friendly and helpful. The facility is spotless, reasonably cool and comfortable. Managers are open to members ideas and thoughts about minimizing bottlenecks with equipment use. Equipment is maintained well, with insight realtime help for minor issues. Most members seem to enjoy their time at the facility.

One improvement would be to have a stronger internet signal to reach podcasts or news broadcasts on my devices. It is pretty weak, and signal is often lost

The facility is very well managed. The employees are friendly and helpful, the facility is always clean and has top notch equipment. It offers so much for the cost of the membership.

The most welcoming staff greet me every time I walk through the door. They are awesome!

This is a wonderful venue for making friends while working out.
