M.E Lyons YMCA

I love M. E Lyons YMCA. I’ve gone to most of their classes and I’ve enjoyed all of them. My favorite class is cardio kickboxing. The instructor’s name is Natalie and she works really hard to make the class personal training for everyone. I’ve also tried the step and dance fitness class. I recommend both to anyone looking for a fun way to exercise.

There is always room for improvement, but If you want a family friendly workout facility with great programs and caring staff… this is the place for you.
The staff is extremely friendly and attractive.

It is a OK gym. They have decent equipment and the facility is clean. Most people I see there are more interested in personal fitness and you wont find the muscle heads that you find in other places.
Hot sauna and steam room are cool
Tennis court definitely need some maintenance

For as popular as this location is, I’m surprised no one has reviewed this Y.
It’s not the newest or most up-​to-​date facility, but that doesn’t seem to take away from people using it. I stopped in on Labor Day to try a Zumba class figuring there would be a small group but the gym was filled with ladies! On other days, I tried a couple other group fitness classes and enjoyed all of them including the other people in the class. If socializing isn’t your thing, you probably wouldn’t enjoy these classes or this facility. Everyone seems to know everyone and if they don’t know you, they talk to you anyway, it really has a neighborly feel to it.
I was fortunate my first day to meet a very kind instructor who marked up my paper calendar with the classes she knew members liked so I felt like I had the inside track. Then, while waiting for a class I asked some others what they liked about the Y and got a variety of answers from the classes, hours, variety and family-​friendly. The thing I noticed most is that if you are looking for a fitness option but are intimidated by the gym scene, you need not worry here. People are here to workout, socialize with friends, but not be seen which I know some people find as a turn off at gyms.
If you’re looking for a place to take fitness classes, get a workout routine going, need an indoor pool and child care, check out the Y!
