    I workout at the YWCA almost everyday! I love the friend atmosphere and the stunning structure of the building. It feels very comfortable and inviting. I also love Cafe Julia that is located in the building. The amenities and different selection of classes are absolutely amazing! They have a basketball court and a swimming pool. I will always recommend the YWCA! They are amazing!

    Being at the DressforSuccess suiting for my interview coming up was a great experience! It was so laid back and I felt the passion and love from the workers. I got to do some little paperwork, we talk and got to know about the organization then tried on clothing, found really cute and professional clothes that fit and the workers were very helpful and the best stylers! It didn’t end there, then I was able to try on nice heels, get a bag and wallet and jewelry! I was blown away by how much was offered for a single suiting! I’m definitely going to tell others about this place and refer some people as well! Job well done to the DressforSuccess crew!

    Went to the Dress for Success event at 10am (get there early for the rush). Not just office/professional clothing but linen pants,skirts,tops and mostly upscale casual + shoes,bags and many of the clothes are top quality with tags.

    I went to use their restroom and wanted to thank them for allowing me but the lady in the front seemed annoyed that I was talking loud…there was church going on and I did not know…but she could have been nicer about it…or maybe they need to hire nicer people.

    This place is such a home feeling.. THE PROGRAMS THEY OFFER TO WOMEN FOR REBUILDING THEIR LIVES AND FOUNDATION MADE ME BELIEVE I COULD STRIVE FOR MORE IN LIFE. I will always call this place my family. Every time I go there, it's like I never left!! Every staff member is incredible and the volunteers are so genuine. Thank you YWCA for her the support and love unconditionally ❤️

    A health center Oasis disguised as a Senior citizen center...not that that's a bad thing. Aside from its very nicely newly renovated- with the help of it's own employees, the yoga/HITT/aerobics/etc. room looked very clean, fresh and up to date. The weight room, full basketball court which also subs as another calisthenics room with kettle bells, jump ropes, medicine balls, lite weight dumbbells. Showed its aged usage, but both were also very clean and its equipments, machines, and accessories were well maintained and in good working conditions. Finally the awesome what looks like Olympic size pool...very inviting. YWCA Laniakea is the no frills, unassuming, welcome to your Oasis of getting healthier home.
