Suffolk Family YMCA

I come almost everyday! My kids (2 and 4) loves it here, the staff is amazing as well

I am not understanding the naysayers here. While I understand the gym being crowded in the afternoons, this is a community YMCA. For those of us here to work out with the equipment I think they have a great range of high quality equipment for being a "smaller" local gym/facility. There are dedicated weight lifting areas, a functional fitness room (it's not open during 24-hr access times though), boxes, TRX & so much more.For those who complain about the kids, you must go earlier like 5am/6am, later in the evening after the crowds go home, or on the weekends.Many people enjoy the group classes here! Heard many great things about the instructors.A few weeks ago I signed up and started one-on-one personal training sessions with one of their amazing trainers, Quinn. He is very professional, knowledgeable and friendly! Not only did he work with my own schedule and availability, but he caters the workouts to my exact needs and goals. He watches my form and challenges me with new and different workouts. I'm already feeling tremendous improvements in my body since I've started, particularly in my lower back, core, arms and leg strength. Mother of 3 boys here so I'm very pleased at how fast I'm building up my strength and core. I feel great!! Thank You Quinn!!

I took off 2 stars bcuz of the lack of open equipment after 5pm and the fact that during the summer the place is crawling with unsupervised kids cursing out loud and playing on the workout equipment... I came from the blocker ymca in norfolk which is the best ymca out here so I'm not going to kick their back in ppl are friendly at this ymca my only complaint is the kids during the summertime playing on equipment and cursing

We have been going to this location for roughly a year, when we first started going everything was clean, the gym was not over crowded and staff took care of many issues. For the last 6 months thing has progressively gone downhill, have seen groups of teens unsupervised on gym equipment, using half of the equipment as a playground and being charged nearly 100 a month for me and my wife with the only useable times being 5am or 9pm for a normal work schedule. The only honest plus side is the childcare.

Im a member here and the communication is horrible close on memorial day. But dont let the the members know anything thats just bad business.Ymca yall have to do better man already charging upwards of 80 bucks a month

Great gym, weight room is great and overall a clean place. Have tried a few classes and they are nice for everyone. Mondays boxmaster class with Mrs Karen is the best. She’s very welcoming and nice also makes the environment comfortable for everyone. Also the childcare while you workout is nice. All the ladies seem to enjoy watching the kids, it’s not rare to see a child being carried on their hips. If you have a little one with some separation anxiety Tyler is your guy! I’m only in there for 2 min to check my kids in and out but all the kids love him. Only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the pool schedule. There is only a few random hours through out the day where they have lap swim available.

I literally would never recommend this place to anyone!!! I signed my son up for basketball for the second time here. This time just as last time when we go to the first practice the team has no coach! Last time it was very unorganized and I felt my son didn’t get the proper training so this time I immediately asked for a refund! I’ve been emailing and calling leaving messages there is no response it’s been 2 whole months I been trying to get a refund! Very unprofessional and unorganized I would never spend another penny with this company! Definitely feeling scammed!

I didn't even have to go to realize that the YMCA has lost it's mission AND its mind. $50/month for a single membership??!!? I could join 3 gyms for that price.YMCA stands for Young Men's Christian Association and is, or at least was partially, a community outreach to the poor and homeless, giving them access to fitness facilities. Many YMCAs had limited housing facilities for the down and out. When I was homeless, I had a membership for $15/mo so I could shower before going to work at a fast food restaurant. I had full access to the facilities at that price.Apparently, they've cut out both the "Christian" and the community outreach portions of their mission. This seems to be a for-profit institution and uses its good name to make , donating money to it. I was a supporter of this institution, donating money without being a member. They will never see a dime of my money ever again.

Beware: when those college kids leave for school they are not adequately staffed. I was upset today when I found out they put my sons last day of camp down for last Friday, instead of this coming Friday. But when I picked him up and saw there was like 2 people and all those kids...I felt 1000xs better. My son LOVES it here and he cried..but better safe than sorry.

My son spent two months here for swimming lessons. Because we were not members we paid $70 for the class. It was worth it. Staff are awesome, pool is cool, and awesome facility. The men's locker room is great. Shower area is nice. The downside is that there are men walking around naked in the locker room so it's no a good idea to let kids go in on their own.A few men sat there talking to themselves, which was very scary.
