I have been coming here for a few weeks for classes that start at 10 M, W, F. They are 55 + classes! Wow what a work out. Big room, friendly people, great place. I recommend highly.

★★★★★Carla Ephraim

Clean and well kept facility. I went to a baby shower and it was a very efficient space. Kitchen, room for up 300 people, tables and chairs, private entrance, restrooms nearby, and helpful staff.

Not helpful or too much friendly.. the staff over the before and after care process communication sucks ridiculously bad. I want my child removed from the before and after care program and school that he is currently at .. which the school board has no problem assisting it’s just the ymca staff are literally taking their poor time trying to get my child a spot for a before and after care at the two schools i would like to send him too after being bullied at his current school .. their only excuse is we only look at the waitlist once a week.. which is ridiculous And don’t reply telling me to contract anyone unless is the ceo. Thanks 😊

If I could give this place zero Stars I would. They do not document incident reports and if they do and your child is involved they say that you are not legally allowed to have them it is confidential. My son was injured by another child who happened to be disabled and that child was just written up. My son is also disabled and had a temper tantrum (no physical harm) and they suspended him. Not only that the coaches talked about my son as if he was a burden and uncontrollable. I called the director Julia to address my concerns and dismissed it all and she told me they discipline children based on each childs needs. Very unprofessional and I highly do not recommend.
