Albert Lea Family YMCA

Experiencia negativa: Applied for a scholarship so I could workout and take a shower and feel like a human being, maybe make some friends. Was denied! They want me to pay, I can't afford an apartment to live in so how can I afford this? All Albert Lea is interested in any more is money, they don't care about people! I volunteered at the Y when I was in college at Riverland Technical College, I thought maybe that would help get a scholarship but they say I have to pay 40% of the cost! Can not afford it that is why I am homeless! Can not afford things like this! Oh well wait till summer for my showers!

Experiencia fantástica: Always fun times at YMCA! Basketball Triathlon with my son Michael! PIG, HORSE, then 1-vs-1 Final Results: PIG champion: Michael HORSE champion: Phil 1-vs-1 (best of 3): Michael sweep series 2-0

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff! They are always working to improve the facility and experience for its members. This includes improvements to the gym, locker rooms (sauna going into the men’s locker room), sauna present in the women’s locker room.

Experiencia negativa: I don’t normally leave reviews but I will state how money hungry this NON profit organization can be. Doesn’t accommodate to those with disabilities either. Paid for one month on MARCH 30th was $51.97 by April 8th wanted $75 MORE FOR NEW MONTH That’s absolutely insane. At least with my insurance I get a FREE membership at a smaller gym that actually accommodates those with DISABILITIES. All I want is to stay healthy especially during my pregnancy. With my partner that also works out to relieve stress after long workdays. We will continue to do so just NOT at this establishment.

Experiencia fantástica: I love eating at the y

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to workout and the staff are very friendly!

Experiencia fantástica: I'm a beast mode guacamole.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the local YMCA we all think of when remembering our beloved family Y from our youth! They care, they support their members and their presence in our community is a bonus for everyone. From water safety to community programs for youth they cover everything in between and make you feel good every time you visit. This is so much more than a place to workout!!

Experiencia positiva: My nationwide membership usually works but not this time.

Experiencia fantástica: Every program our son has attended from summer care to all of the basketball courses to swimming lessons have been great. All of the instructors are patient and knowledgeable.

Experiencia fantástica: Our family has loved the kids programs offered at the Y. We are so grateful for the smaller group sizes for our 1st grader to learn more basketball skills.

Experiencia positiva: The classes they offer are awesome, especially taekwondo

Experiencia fantástica: The place is the place is great. It takes my insurance. Everybody's really helpful

Experiencia negativa: A Staff member had a terrible attitude

Experiencia fantástica: It is expansive. Lots of room. Lots of variety in workout machines. I love getting sunshine through the big windows when running on the treadmill. The free weight room is separate from the cable machine room. If you are a beginner you don't have to mix in with the serious body builder types.

Experiencia fantástica: The place is the place is great. It takes my insurance. Everybody's really helpful

Experiencia negativa: Very unorganized

Experiencia negativa: I like the facility but!I not occcomdating for handcapp people, you have to go use elevator to get to basement and then take steps up to pool and then back down steps to shower room

Experiencia fantástica: Nice place

Experiencia negativa: Мне не понравилось обслуживание! Админ себя грубо вела. Я пришла с маленьким ребёнком 3 года. В детской раздевалке фен дует холодный воздух, а во взрослую женскую раздевалку мне с дочкой не разрешили спуститься. Ей нет 18! Представляете! Нет 18 и поэтому ребёнок 3х лет должен идти с мокрой головой в ноябре на улицу

Experiencia positiva: It's an older facility but it's actively maintained and cared for. Many programs available and lots of equipment to choose from. Certainly a good place to bring the family. The steam room in the men's locker room is a nice feature I use regularly!

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you YMCA and the soccer teams during Michelin soccer ball program helping make it great successes and look forward to working with you in 2013

Experiencia negativa: Your website says you're open on Sundays. I'm dressed for my workout, I waited until 1pm as your website states you're open by, and now I arrive to find you're closed. For as much as I pay for a membership, at least update your website, smoothbrains.

Experiencia positiva: I'm choosing to go 50% on this. Here's my reasoning: the staff is amazing and were really helpful and kind as we got started here. However, the facilities need work. I don't mind a gym feeling a bit old school, as long as things like the locker rooms are up to date. For instance, there's no reason for they're not to be curtains in the men's locker room showers. If things improve, I'd be happy to improve my review.

Experiencia fantástica: Really nice YMCA for the size of the city. I was a visiting YMCA member from WI and they were very accommodating.

Experiencia fantástica: I love the machine that has your lower body rotate all the way from one side to the other. Really trims the waist.

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym I've been to; like the vibe, and very friendly people there

Experiencia fantástica: It was my favorite place to go when I lived in town a very supportive group of serious lifters. I wish more gyms where like this one. Sadly most gyms now days are becoming like Planet Fitness don't try too hard, don't make any noise, try not to deadlift.

Experiencia fantástica: it’s a fun place to go

Experiencia fantástica: I love taking my kids here for swimming lesions. The instructors are very helpful and the class size is small. Will definitely sign them up for higher level classes.

Experiencia fantástica: Love the Family Y! Clean facility ...friendly staff....great programs!

Experiencia fantástica: I found this YMCA to be small, but very effective. I was staying nearby while on vacation, and the staff was very helpful, the equipment simple to use, and it wasn't overly crowded.
