Visited from Racine. Checked out the Steam room, sauna and hot tub. Sauna and steam room are not co-ed however I highly recommend them. The sauna was a good at being hot enough. And the steam room worked really well. No towels or prelocked key pads offered here. So bring a towel and lock.
It's sad that I was never even said Hi too, until the water aerobics instructor confronted me in a very negative way. I thought She was coming over to me with positive energy. I was told that I was the reason for the water bubbles in the whirlpool . She asked me about my swimming attire, and as long as I've been here nothing was ever said about my swim wear. I'm at the YMCA for therapeutic reasons, and I have knee surgeries scheduled already. Why pick on someone that's elderly & disabled. I wish they would have came to me early on, as professional staff members. I'm a woman of color, and I feel like I'm being discriminated against here. I am a resident and have an active membership, I deserve respect. I never really communicated with anyone here & they never made me feel welcomed either. They stare at me like I'm a foreign object when I'm there. I have overlooked everything until they came to me with these accusations. Wow, I need this place at this time in my life. God knows my heart, I pray for you all.
Family friendly and a comfortable atmosphere. Their Livestrong program for cancer survivors is top notch. It doesn’t feel like a “gym”, it feels like a community. It’s been a great place to take my children for sports and babysitter certification, and it’s comfortable to work out there. The crew at the Waukesha location is the very best!
Summer camps are amazing the gym is clean all staff are so nice! Please get a membership at YMCA.
I love the Y. I'm there at least 5 times a week. I enjoy the cardio and weight rooms most. I can go to any Y wherever I am.
Has great variety of class offerings and an excellent lap pool
Very friendly staff. Lots of variety in means of equipment and pool. O ly issue is the locker rooms could use an upgrade. Showers are left to be desired.
We have done several programs at the Y for our children- including Swimming, Soccer, and Sports Sampler. All of the instructors we have had during the years have been amazing with the kids. 2 specifically is Miss Anna for swimming and Coach John for Soccer. Coach John remembers all the kids names, makes sure they are all included and comfortable, and most of all he makes all the different learning drills fun for the kids! I couldn't say enough good things about him and the way he teaches! We will continue to enroll our children in the different programs the Y has to offer, and would recommend them 10 times over to anyone thinking about it!
The Waukesha YMCA Basketball program is fantastic. Our girls enjoyed the season and are always sad to see it end. We can’t say enough about all the wonderful Coaches! The 3rd grade coaches are so energetic, supportive and friendly with all the players. Our girls always get better every year with this program and we thank everyone at the Basketball staff from the bottom of our hearts
Very inflexible policies w guest passes. Been a member on and off for years, have coached youth sports for the Waukesha Y for 10 years.. and I cannot come in for an hour on a guest pass or any pass or daily payment to rebound baskets for my son. Incredible. Very sad.
