Amenities & Benefits
What People Have to Say
The YMCA has been a place of continuity in our family. My children went to the excellent daycare, and we also used the child minding facilities. The children benefited from having swimming lessons which are included in the price. And, of course, the YMCA always had camps every school holiday to entertain the children. We are also able to make use of the gym facilities and exercise classes.
My name is Dr. Omer Mallhi. I am a 45 year old practicing dentist living in Paradise.
I have been mostly inactive throughout my life. I wasn’t into physical activities or sports. Choosing this profession also didn’t help and came with certain occupational hazards.
I have had a painful back, neck, and an osteoarthritis diagnosis since a few years now, but a severe painful worrying kind of episode pushed me into taking it seriously and changing my lifestyle.
I have a YMCA membership and luckily for me I got Matthew Jessome as my personal trainer. He has been very patient and supportive of me. Initially he spent a lot of time figuring out my weak areas. Now I have a plan that pushes me just the right amount to prevent any injury whole improving strength/power. Even though I am still not where I hope but am feeling much better about myself and know this to be an ongoing journey.
The reception employees are always very welcoming and greet with a smile.
