Reviews of Alabaster YMCA (Gym)

Tramaine Coleman

They always close 1 hr earlier than posted. My favorite Y but that last hour being cut from 10 to 9 pm hurts my regimen

This place is kid friendly. My girls attended the summer camp and after school program. They loved going and really enjoyed the activities they participated in. There where a few incidents to occur. The staff was more than willing to workout and or work with me concerning any and every issue that occured. My girls have really bonded with some of the staff and development many friends. Why I was very pleased with my services. I really enjoyed the director and her assistant. It is unfortunate we have to move on. To anyone looking for Summer camp , Hoilday camp or afterschool care. I highly recommend your kids will enjoy it. Thank you for the experience.

Family oriented,every one is so kind.

Can not ever seem to be able to use any of the amenities because of overbearing policies. There is always some excuse for the pool being closed, and an indoor hot tub being closed do to weather? Are the showers closed too? Consider a different branch or a different organization to spend your money on.

Facilities are adequate, and it's hard to beat the number of YMCA locations you have access to if you travel a lot for a living. If you do any weightlifting be warned: they have 75lb bars instead of 45lb arbitrarily scattered throughout the gym room. Might not seem like a big difference in lbs, but if you do any heavy lifting this could potentially be dangerous.

I love this gym. First off this place is pretty clean, the staff are super friendly and helpful , if you have any questions about a piece of equipment they will make sure you are probably using it correctly. I have used their personal trainer Beth, and she is doing awesome stuff for my physique! A added plus is , I have made so many new friends since becoming a member. I have been to other YMCAs around Birmingham and this one is my favorite, it feels so much like a community not just a place I go to get my sweat on.

I took an adult swim lesson at this branch and the instructor was first class.

I go in the mornings. Staff is great. Place always clean. They are always cleaning. Great equipment. Really good pool. I'm a YMCA fan anyway but this by far is my favorite. My wife really loves the yoga class.

We decided to try out the YMCA Soccer after missing the city's deadline for sign ups. So far, it has been a mess. Coaches not showing up, practices and games being scheduled, cancelled and rescheduled without much if any notice at all. I can't speak for other sports, but the soccer program is unorganized. This was my daughter's first attempt at a sport other than cheer, and I'm afraid this experience will change her mind on trying again. Essentially we have spent over $200 for a jersey, one game and a handful of "practices". I'm disappointed because I expected more from the Y.

(Translated by Google) This place is fine but it needs a little more order and more space because if you go to the top and there are classes you can not pass or exercise in that area and several times they have prevented me from using cardiovascular machines because that are for the class that is in the middle of the top and if you want to move from one place to another you do it with difficulty when that class is ... the room they have for zumba classes is very small compared to others and mca to those who have come ... the bases where they have the towels to clean the appliances are at a height where for some people it is difficult to take them .. the bathroom that overlooks the pool has a not very pleasant smell .. the machines are in good condition state there are enough weights and other equipment .. the place too piled up (Original) Este lugar esta bien pero le hace falta un poco de más orden y más espacio pues si tu vas a la parte de arriba y hay clases no puedes pasar o hacer ejercicio en esa área y varias veces me han impedido que use las máquinas de cardiovascular pues que son para la clase que queda en medio de la parte de arriba y si quieres transitar de un lugar a otro lo haces con dificultad cuando está esa clase ... el salón que tienen para clases de zumba es muy pequeño comparado con otros ymca a los que e acudido ... las bases donde tienen las toallas para limpiar los aparatos están a una altura donde para algunas personas resulta difícil tomarlas .. el baño que da a la alberca tiene un olor no muy agradable ..las máquinas están en buen estado hay pesas suficientes y otros equipos .. el lugar demasiado amontonado

Very attentive staff both at the desk and by the pools. They are also very quick to respond to emails and will answer any question. The day Care staff is wonderful as well.

Mary Thomas

A star for each year spent here with no improvements. Whirlpool rarely works, pool is sometimes open, bathroom is partially clean showers are Awful and gross. We pay too much for this. At Lifetime now

Visited on a Sunday afternoon and it was almost empty. The hot tub was running, but we were there to go swimming. The kids loved it. It has a long, graduating ramp into the pool instead of the typical steps. I had to look it up: it's called a zero entry pool. It's more accessible and provides a great area for little ones to comfortably play.

The youth sports program is supposed to teach skills and sportsmanship. Instead parents are being allowed to "talk smack" to kids on the opposing team. The referees said nothing to this individual who should have been thrown off the field. Don't expose your children to this, take them somewhere else.

Darrell Harris

I am a member and I love everything about it except for the youth soccer. It was severely unorganized. The first practice out the gate, there was about 15 kids that hadn't been assigned a team. The girl that was sent to talk with us, bless her heart but you can tell she was just thrown in at the last minute. There was too many teams, we basically had 3 players all season. outside of that and the lack of communication by the youth director (don't expect any return calls from this guy), the atmosphere is great on a day to day.

Austin Ehrhart

Great location for a workout, and open early on Sunday's. Great facilities and very clean.

Jeff D

Great location. Great friendly staff. Start my day off here even though a little more distance than the Pelham Y. Plenty of workout machines for different variations of exercise.

LaToya Bishop

The pool was the best in the world go there and have a great time

Joel Gregory

They have good equipment, but it is routinely overcrowded. Maybe I just don't like people when i work out.
