Downtown YMCA

"Only been to this location maybe 16 times during my time in the Springs from 1984 - 1997. It is a great YMCA with many programs to offer. I used it during my drill weekend as an Army Reservist sometimes. But, my problem was with the homeless that plagued the downtown area at night and didn't feel safe. It is even worse now with homeless pot smoking bums thanks to Colorado legalizing marijuana, and Colorado's soft on crime policies make downtown a very unsafe environment."

"I have worked with Personal Trainer Kip Biese for three years. Kip is personable and has helped me tremendously in my fitness goals. I wanted to continue doing the things I love including skiing and he established a fitness plan that helped me regain my confidence on the ski slope. Additionally, Kip helped me in a way that didn't make it painful or hard. I would never have been able to do this myself. Thank you Kip for all of your help!"

"Love the Y, awesome nightly front desk staff (Sanaa and Fernando), and a great place for a workout! Only suggestions would be to increase the temps in the sauna (150) and steam room (115) as I know this would the request of many other members that go all the time. Otherwise I really enjoy being a member!"

"Sanaa and Fernando are the freaking best! Their smiles always brighten my day and they are the two most helpful front desk people at ANY YMCA in town! - A guy who worked at the YMCA for 7 years"

"Being downtown and parking what it is there I can really appreciate that the Y offers the adjacent garage for free when you're there. We come here for swim lessons usually. At times the pool does seem a bit crowded, but overall the instructors and the other staff here are nice. The facility is pretty well kept from what I've seen"
