YMCA of Central Kentucky

Really good place to work out, an awesome staff at the daycare. If u wanna come around 1800 to lift weights is to crowded besides that love it that’s why I did not give 5 stars.

HORRIBLE!!! hAVENT been there for a month, tried to cancel our membership coz we moved but they charged us for our next month membership… They dont want to give our money back and charge us almost 80 bucks for not going in there. No consideration

The pool is dilapidated and dirty you can see black mold growing on the concrete floor and the sides of the pool. The rails are very rusty and loose. The water class instructor is rude and was unwilling to share that great big pool with an out
of towner as a one time courtesy. Where I’m from a visitor to my Y would not have been treated like that. The locker room was dirty and smelled of mildew the lockers are painted over rust. The toilets were also dirty. I was very disappointed in the out dated treadmills and the cloth rags to clean the machines are tacky and were left all over the benches in the pool area and piled on a tacky shelf in the work out area. If I could give a minus star to this place I would. I don’t recommend anyone to visit this place ever and I will never return.

I am really excited about the Beaumont Y. I’ve been a member for years and I’m surprised at how little people know about the facility and its programs. As a member, not only do you have access to the gym and pools (indoor and outdoor) but there are several included programs to participate in. Yoga, pilates, group exercises, etc are just some. And it’s the best pool pass in town. Stop in and ask for Katy. She’s thorough in getting you acquainted with the facility and all it has to offer.

They have since updated the equipment (and increased the prices).
In the long fun, if you have kids who will take advantage of the various activities they offer (or you do yourself, they have adult activities as well), then it’s worth it.
If it’s just you, again, I think you’d be better served somewhere else.

My husband and I have been members here for over 3 years. For the first 3 years we really enjoyed using the machines and practicing yoga here. Although it has been quite busy during peak hours, especially January and February month’s, everything operated smoothly and professionally as far as we were concerned. For some reason in January 2014 things took a turn for the bad. The machines were not being cleaned by the previous user on a regular basis. On a few occasions there have been no rags to even clean them with. Underage children use the machines. There has even been a person running bare foot on the indoor track with no one around to enforce the rules. Evening personnel went from being mature adults who did enforce the rules professionally and discreetly to young people who don’t care or are afraid to confront the offender. We have complained on deaf ears. The final straw has been that the people using the room next to our Wednesday night yoga class have been interrupting our class to ask when we will be done, opening our door to see if we’re done, allowing their children to bang on our window continuously, and being excessively noisy in the adjacent room long before their activity is supposed to begin. We, along with several of our other fellow classmates, complained to the Director over a month ago after enduring weeks of the same treatment. We were told that class was an unauthorized class and the issue would be resolved. A couple of weeks went by and all was calm. The excessive noise and persistent opening of our door by the previous offenders came back once again and has progressively gotten worse over the last 3 weeks. It has become obvious to us that we are not valued members and have chosen to take our membership elsewhere. Surely we can find a more peaceful place to practice yoga and maintain or improve our fitness level. We are saddened to leave the familiar faces we have come to know and love in a few of the employees and other members. In leaving this review we hope it may in some way help you and the YMCA.

If you go in the early morning, then you may be fine. Go other times of the day and it’s dirty, crowded, and at 75 bucks a month, certainly not a bargain. Seriously, the showers are disgusting with awful drainage. Take that money and buy some warm clothes and run outside.

Love this gym! They have a large amount of well maintained fitness equipment, two indoor pools and an outdoor pool. Lots of fitness classes and a very nice area for children to play. The only downside is that the gym can get pretty crowded, especially in the cardio area. I’ve had to wait on an elliptical machine before, which can be a drag. Other than that, excellent place to work out!

I used to live close to this Y, then I moved closer to town and was basically halfway between this location and the High Street Branch. I chose to switch locations, and I am glad I did. If you have a family, Beaumont is great, but if you prefer to run, swim, work out, play basketball, with out being bothered much, I’d recommend the High Street Branch. Unless you are able to go to the gym from 9am — 3pm, there are always a ton of kids running around here with virtually no supervision. It gets really annoying when you’re trying to work out and kids keep getting on the machines in front of you and next to you and messing around for 30 seconds then running off, bumping into you and yelling at each other.

I like this Y because they have a decent variety of fitness classes and the membership doesn’t cost a huge amount. Plus, it has lots of weights, treadmills, ellipticals and other stuff. I sample from the group exercise menu: Pam’s my favorite because she kicks your ass and leaves you smiling. I’ve taken several classes she teaches and have been satisfied with every one.
Beware going during peak times, though: the parking lot can be a nightmare!
Another great thing I like about the Y in general is that they offer subsidized memberships to families and individuals: great for struggling students or anyone else who wants to get fit at a discount. And the application process is relatively painless!
