    I use SilverSneakers fitness programs Monday through Friday every week. Each instructor varies the workouts and make it fun to exercise. The pool is also great for exercising while being easier on the joints, especially for older adults. There is a walking track above the gym and a large variety of exercise machines available. Pickleball is very popular.

    I enjoy the Senior Fit, Core, Tone, Silver Sneakers and Boom classes👍. Coaches Debbie, Beth Ann & Terri are great! I hope that Coach Barb is well and can return soon. I also like being able to swim laps in the pool.

    Seniors need to know that they can join free and they have all workout equipment that you need. Also have a swimming poola and a completely remolded gym.

    I have nothing but positive feedback on this location. Special mention to Darris, sports director. He is above and beyond wonderful, an asset to this facility and programs. Friendly, clean, and professional while still down to earth Well done.

    I recently rejoined theY after being away for about 5 years. I wanted to give 3 cheers for both the jobs that Andrew (member services) and the lifeguards do every day. Andrew is so engaged, friendly and seems to be everywhere working to make things better for the members. The young men who serve as lifeguards and swim instructors impress me so much with their friendliness and their focus on their jobs. I love watching them interact on Sunday afternoon with the children that they are teaching to swim; they seem to make it instructional and fun for the kids and they really seem to be enjoying themselves. They also do a nice job interacting with the morning swimmers. I have two opportunities for improvement. The first is for the managers to stop coming out on the pool deck in high heels. I cringe every time I see it because the deck is slippery and I think there's a rule about not wearing street shoes. The other is for the managers to stop walking and texting. It's not only unfriendly and non-engaging, it's a safety issue. People shouldn't have to dart around the aisle to avoid getting run into. Make eye contact and say hello instead. As you can see, safety is a big deal to me. Other than that, I think the place is great.

    Not much hot steam in steam room. However, hot tub and dry sauna good. Hand rails in showers would be nice. Great coffee and free newspaper and magazines to read.

    I love this YMCA. I love all of the classes. I take 15 classes each week Monday thru Friday. I have lost 70 pounds and made so many new friends. So happy to be part of this YMCA community.

    I have enjoyed all of the group exercise classes I've taken. The instructors are knowledgeable and responsive to all students.

    I would not recommend your smaller sized children to participate in this place with out your supervision! Me and my family took a trip too the ST.LOUIS ZOO, while we were there there was a group of toddler size children with 2 staff members (from the YMCA) one of the toddlers decided he wasn’t having the zoo that day and did normal toddler things throw a fit the lady that was working with the kids was very rude too this child grabbing him using actual force on this child and I wish I knew the parents so I could have told them about this poor child. She wasn’t super mean but she was very unpleasant they were very rude with any comment toward the children! Not to mention they have the children on a rope (made for kids) by their arms walking WAY too fast too we’re the kids were tripping over each other! I couldn’t help but star the entire time because I was worried about that child’s safety and still wonder if he ended up okay! Just saying for the small amount of time that I seen these staff members with children I could never imagine putting my child through such s stressful environment!

    Someone keeps putting Propoganda TV on in the changing room, might have been the one tripping in the Hot Tub and constantly scratching

    Directors/ staff members are best ever. They have been very much accommodating and flexible per needs time to time. One of the best YMCAs in the region.

    terrible management. hope they have changed ppl and fixed it for ppl need assist so they can go to work to support their family. they gave me false information and made me paid cause I had no other choice. I reached out to everybody I could find contact to but nobody fixed issue for me. kids at summer camps are't treated well enough for the price for sure.

    Website is constantly down. Makes it near impossible to sign up for programs. If you find a day where their website is actually up, their system for booking a child in a program is terrible and not user friendly.

    I have registered membership in ymca St Charles. I had sign up simming classes for my 2 boys. But my kids positive test covid and sick, so they can’t go to arrive simming class. However befor I try find cancel these class, but online they don’t have any chooses we cancel. After that my husband have go to ycma talk with somebody and they told can’t cancel, not refund. And they will sent we credit card only use ymca st Chalrt can’t use any ymca different place. After some week we moving another the state. They charge me a lot money $106 for 1 class 7y, $60 for 1 class 5y. And fee membership 1 month $75. Meanwhile we not yet use service at here, not yet come to class study anything, not yet come to use any service, just sign up online only. I think it’s too bad. I think if you buy something we can return buy another things. If service too bad they can refund for me. But I never think it’s too bad. Now I until not yet receive credit card or something. And I canceled membership at here. I hope they don’t charge me next month. I never use ymca again.

    Agree with posts that indicated poorly maintained facility and equipment, very rude and inconsiderate 'managers' and some 'worker bees'. Bad app. 'Scheduling' is sadly funny (??). No effictive planning or communications !! Policies and rules are randomly enforced. Someone posted about noise of dropping weights, Cell phone use, etc... There are rules/policies against those and other annoying/detrimental actions. Not enforced, but some other rules/policies are enforced (????). ALWAYS have hand out and pressuring everyone (members, past members, visitors, guest employees, etc..for donations (directly and indirectly) !!! Don't provide towels anymore. They tell you about new equipment, classes, etc.. BS DO NOT GO TO THE ST PETERS Y, at least until there are new 'managers' with new/better rules and policies, or at least fairly enforces ALL rules/policies evenly. NOT, let friends, etc get away with 'stuff' and others are penalized (sometimes falsely !!) DO NOT GO TO THE ST PETERS Y DJXM
