Fort Myers YMCA

Positive experience: It's kind of a daycare that's pretending it's a gym. If you're not a parent or retired, they don't care about making you happy. Maybe if I had fallen into their prefer to demographics, see above, I would have had a better time. Sometimes companies need to remember who funds them all year round, and not just during specific months of the year.

Fantastic experience: Went a few weeks ago with my husband to get a tour of the facility to see if it was something we were interested in. Lindsay was absolutely amazing! We ended up joining the same day. It’s never too packed & the kid zone has been such a help for us (Lindsay has been working it both times we’ve used it and she is great with the kiddos!) Also a fan of the amount of classes that are offered. I’ve only tried one so far but definitely looking forward to everything this gym offers!

Positive experience: WARNING TO PARENTS!!! I was working out Friday 5/6/22 in the afternoon and all off a sudden, a wave of small children came running through the gym and playing on all the machines, including the treadmills. I was shocked to see that because I’ve never experienced this before at a gym but it seemed as though it could be a regular occurrence. The issue is that several times I looked around and not one staff member was in there watching them. Apparently they didn’t know that last year alone, over 2000 children under the age of 8 were seriously injured and a few killed in treadmill accidents. Any one of those little kids could have been seriously injured and if it eventually happens, they’ll have a big lawsuit on their hands. If I knew they left my small child on a treadmill unattended, there would be someone there that would be in serious trouble. Plus, a gym is no place for small children to be running around. That’s why they have a day care. Come on guys, use your brains. I know you think you’re being nice and fun but you were being extremely irresponsible. I hope management corrects this problem before an innocent young child gets seriously injured or God forbid, is fatally injured. If they try to say the kids were supervised the whole time, it’s a lie because I looked around everywhere and there was absolutely no staff. All of the children looked to be between 6-8. Other than that lack of judgement, the gym’s decent. Staff is pretty nice too. Sometimes they have machines that are out of order for a long time but that may just be parts so no biggie.

Positive experience: Nice place. Very safe. Great place for organized sports

Positive experience: Good for the county. Great coach there
