You spoke…

Thank you for bringing On the Ball back to Saturday mornings!

We listened!

You're welcome! =)

You spoke…

I think it was very rude and inconsiderate to remove the fan which was being used

by the Seniors in their exercise class.

We listened!

I apologize for any inconvenience that might have been caused. The spin fan

suddenly went out during the middle of the 10am class, and that class has a much greater need

for ventilation than the East studio. A decision had to be made, and because it was a matter of

safety for the members in that class, the fan needed to be moved for the remainder of the day.

The fan has been moved back into the East studio. Again, I apologize for any inconvenience,

but hope that you can understand the reasoning in which it was decided.

How about yoga for children or yoga with mom/dad?

Thank you for your suggestion. We offered Parent/Child Yoga classes in the

summer. We can certainly try them during the Fall and Winter sessions as well.

You spoke…

We would like yoga plus every day of the week. Once or twice is not enough!

We listened!

Thank you so much for the nice comment. I will pass that on to the instructor.

You spoke…

Cardio kickboxing back to 1 hour please!

There was a schedule mistake. The class should not have been cut, the last 15

minutes

(“ab lab”)

was mistakenly left off. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

You s

poke…

Is there any way to put the 5:30pm Zumba class back in the studio, either Monday

or Wednesday? The gym is distracting, the sound system is poor,

and it’s

confusing to follow

the instructors. Please consider!

Due to the high volume of participants with the Zumba classes, our only viable

alternative is to have the class in the gym. We do have a Friday evening class as well as a

Sunday afternoon class that meet in the East studio.

You spoke…

Advertise your free group sessions. All fliers, brochures, etc. show extra cost-

programs, which all people can't afford. You have to do both.

We listened!

Because the free classes we offer are for members only, we post our schedules

online, outside our studios and at the front desk.

You spoke…

I really wanted to join the Power 90 class, but they all seem geared for day shift

workers. I come here almost every morning-couldn't you start one class at 7:30am or 8:00am?

We listened!

We did advertise this class at 7am this last session, but it did not have enough

registrants. I will make a time change to 7:15am and see if we can run it the next session.

You spoke…

I am really sad to see classes taken away from instructors because

of their "seniority." The other more experienced instructors that take over can

learn from the newer ones

(1 similar comment requesting a specific instructor).

We listened!

All of our instructors are talented individuals with different

styles--perhaps after some time getting used to the new instructors, you will

find that they will give you a great workout, too. Please contact me directly if there are some

specific ideas I can pass onto them (855-9544).

poke…

For the cost of membership, it is not acceptable to have 4 yoga classes in the last

two months cancelled because of instructor (or sub) no shows. This class is my primary reason

for membership & I arrange a lot of family details to make this happen

Bummer that 17 people showed up for Yoga at 6:30 on Wednesday and

no teacher! Luckily a volunteer led the class. Hope you find someone next week!

We listened!

Thank you for your understanding and your positive attitude. All should be set for

next week. We are sincerely sorry for the inconvenience. The sub that had been secured for

the regular instructor was not able to be here because of a circumstance beyond her control.

There was no advance warning, and it was too late to secure another sub.

You sp

oke…

Please have more morning and evening (after 6:30pm) Yoga classes

: One hour of yoga is more beneficial. 45 minutes is so limiting.

We are continually looking at new possibilities for class offerings. We will

consider changing the time to one hour. Thank you for your suggestion.

You spoke…

I am concerned about the amount of classes being cancelled-especially early AM

classes. If class is not working out, please consider changing the instructor or type of class

We try to maintain our schedule to meet as many member needs as possible.

Sometimes that means that if a class is not well attended, we look at where we might be able to

offer a different class to a larger number of participants in order to serve as many members as

possible. We will continue to monitor the schedules and make adjustments as necessary. We

strive to bring a balance of many types of classes to our members, at a variety of times and

days.

You spoke…

Please resume step on Monday and Thursday for the fall. We love to get here at

6:00pm-this is for those of us who work until 5pm or 5:30pm

In order to stay within our budget guidelines, we are not able to add any more

classes at this time. As the season progresses, we will re-assess the need for classes and the

times they are offered. We have many requests for many classes, and have tried to

accommodate when possible. We do offer step on Mondays in the evenings and also on

Tuesdays and Thursdays in the early morning as well as on Thursdays at 8:45.

You spoke…

Can there please be a class or two between 8-9am? I've been a

member for a few years and would love to come before work and take a class.

We are constantly looking at ways to improve our schedule--we

will take this into consideration while planning the fall schedule. Thank you for

your input.

Class started late because the class right before ours did not end on time. Can you talk to

the instructor?

I have addressed this situation with the instructor and it should be taken care of.

Please let me know if this happens again. Thank you.

You spoke…

There were too many people in the Cardio Dance class on Thursday at 5:30pm.

We listened!

Thank you for the information, we will consider some alternatives.

You spoke…

Another health club in the area has an aerobic room class full of ab roll out bars-

why doesn’t the YMCA?

We listened!

We will consider your request the next time we make an order. Because we are a

non-profit organization unlike other health clubs, our resources might be more limited than

theirs.

Please fix the microphone in the studio where Zumba is held.

Spin instructors- great job! But please do a sound check before class starts. Our

ears are much closer to speakers than yours-ouch!

Thank you for your suggestion. I will pass that along to our instructors.

Please add more mid-day pilates classes.

Thank you for the suggestion. That time frame in the past has not been very

popular, but we can perhaps do a survey and see if there is more interest now.

You spoke…

Step was way too fast with the sub filling in. She should slow down and show the

routine first.

We listened!

Thank you for your input. I will review the guidelines with my instructors.

You spoke…

If possible, could larger signs be put up on the class doors letting people know not

to enter a class after 10 minutes? I take a lot of classes and it is very distracting when people

come in 15 minutes late. Thanks!

We listened!

Thank you for the suggestion. We will consider implementing your idea.

You spoke…

As a long time member I would really like to keep the Wednesday yoga class at

6:30pm and not displace it with a fee based class. Thanks for consideration.

I really wish the 90 minute class wasn't a paid class -my kids already take

classes so I can't do another one.

Another member said

: It would be great if one of the yoga classes on Saturday was a "yoga

plus" class.

We listened!

We will be going back to that time slot after Fall I session is over. We apologize

for any inconvenience this has been for you. Scheduling is sometimes a balancing act, and we

will bring that class back to the original time beginning the week of Nov 2. In regards to a Yoga

Plus class on Saturdays, we will take your suggestion into consideration. Thank you!

You spoke…

The number of group exercise classes is very limited, especially on Tuesdays and

Thursday evening. The classes do not seem to accommodate those that work during the day.

We listened!

Our current schedule reflects our budget at this time. We currently offer 70 free

classes between the three studios. We also share the studio with Arts and Humanities, Sports

and Community Outreach, and are trying to reach as many members as possible through these

different programs. Because your membership is for the whole association, you can also access

the other locations’ schedules on our website at grymca.org. for other options.
