😐 I love this YMCA. The gym is well-equipped, they offer a fantastic number of group classes and its very near where I live. The only complaint I have is that I rarely feel welcomed when I initially check in. The woman at the front desk who I usually see is just not very friendly. I don't remember her... People often mention classes, YMCA, years, kids, love, friendly, Ventura, staff, swim,

    I love this YMCA. The gym is well-equipped, they offer a fantastic number of group classes and its very near where I live. The only complaint I have is that I rarely feel welcomed when I initially check in. The woman at the front desk who I usually see is just not very friendly. I don't remember her name but she always has on very long glue on lashes and she has a cold demeanor. Other than her, I like it there.

    Clean nice employees but i love the fact they accept vouchers for homeless or low income children. Ventura unified school district homeless laison gave all 5 of my kids a swimming pass during the summer a few years back and the kids loved it! If you are homeless or low income ask vusd laison for more info for your kids.😊.

    This has been my gym for the last 2.5 years and I love it here. The staff is super friendly. They know about the gym and are very caring. The rooms have recently been remodeled. They just redid the weight room and some other rooms. They have good machines. I enjoy the cardio room. My daughter takes swim lessons here. You gotta check the outdoor area too!

    Wonderful place to take children to workout with you. Staff greets you upon entry and are usually friendly. Their kids activities are usually good with decent instructors. I also love all the group classes that are available throughout the day. Facility is clean and kept up. However, I rate the Ventura YMCA with a 3 star, because their swim team is half par. Instructors just tell the kids what to do with very minimal direction and/or correction on technique. If you are looking to improve your child’s swimming technique for future competitions, this is not the place for it. However, if you want them conditioned, then yes take them here. I was hoping for more technical instructions for my son and have voiced my concerns on several occasions, especially since I have to pay for my son to be on the swim team. Yet, their has been minimal change. I guess I should not expect to much considering they hire young adults to instruct the kids, whom are probably just paid minimum wage.

    I have been going to the YMCA for 12 years. Originally I chose this gym because of their excellent childcare. My kids are grown now but I’ve stayed because of the excellent group classes, helpful staff and the family friendly atmosphere. I’ve been taking yoga and Zumba classes for 10 years and the instructors are superb. I’ve made many friends over the years and I will never leave the Y for another gym. There is something for everyone!

    I love coming to the YMCA! The staff and community who are at this gym are always wonderful to be around. It's like one big family here and going to the different types of classes, whether it be swimming classes, indoor classes, out door classes, or even just hitting the weight rooms, this is the place to be if you want to feel inspired and motivated to be a better and healthier version of yourself!

    I love taking the zumba and yoga classes at the Y. The instructors are incredible and it's so much fun to work out with my friends. My husband and sons enjoy working out with the free weights and machines. The staff makes you feel welcome and it's a great family place.

    Disappointing. They remove and replace equipment without notification or talking to members. I went to use a machine today , a machine that i have used eveyday after becoming a member and It was gone.....Kinda unprofessional for a gym. The Y is a solid family gym. But definitely cater to people that actually dont want to work out. I will be looking elsewhere.

    I've been a member of the YMCA for more than 6 years. I joined when my first child was a few months old. The Y has been a God send for me. Children's Corner and the child care that comes with membership has allowed me to stay sane over the past few years as my (now 2) children were growing up from babies, to toddlers and now pre-school/school age. From programs like swimming lessons, dance (itty bitty ballet - so cute) and introduction to various sports as well as other programming during the holidays, the Ventura Family YMCA has been a rock in my family's schedule. The facilities are excellent and are always being improved and upgraded. From the Fitlinxx room to the free weight room, the various community rooms and gym, the outdoor court and the therapy and lap pool, the Y has it covered! Patrons of the Y range from the very young to the very mature and it truly is a 'family' YMCA.

    I grew up attending this Y as a kid (learned to swim at the Ventura Y). The Y has a great family-friendly atmosphere and has a variety of group ex classes, machines and programs for all ages. Excellent master’s swim program. The Y is very committed to helping the community.

    Have been a Ventura Y Member for the past 19 years, from the multiple class offerings to the friendly staff the Y doesn’t disappoint. Join now!
