Tellepsen Family Downtown YMCA

This place has it all! It's got a basketball court that's as good as new, an amazing weight lifting facility, a great little café to restore some energy, and, to top it off, a remarkable staff .

This facility is absolutely amazing. The only problem is the crowd. Maybe the nicest YMCA on the planet, though - facility wise.

Great facility, great classes , and all in all an awesome gym . But....AWFUL parking . The entrance and exit overlap, so getting in and out can take a while. Massive design oversight by the architect.

Come check this place out if you haven't been totally rebuilt catty corner to the old one - all glass and chrome great facility - check schedule before coming lots of leagues and stuff

Good massive modern gym . 2 hr free parking for member . Towel service . Dry steam sauna by the pool . Recommended

Top notch facility! Hot tub , sauna , steam room touch screen treadmills .... List goes on and on!

I love this location, nightclub cardio on Wednesday and Body jam on Thursday

Love this place! The group classes are great and very convenient if you work downtown

I love that this gym is hardly ever crowded and if you live near downtown it's hard to beat!

Great place to sit and read or do homework. Free wifi on open network and great indoor and outdoor seating

WAAAAY too crowded . Nice facilities but oversold. Parking a nightmare at peak hours, with gridlock on the streets around the building. They badly need to cap membership.

Facilities are comparable with Lifetime Fitness at a fraction of the cost!

Take body jam or nightclub cardio with either Amanda both are awesome

Get the post-workout smoothie from Alex at the cafe . It's the bomb.

I love the running track overlooking downtown

I keep accidentally crushing the weights here into powder. It's hard to control my overwhelming strength.

Everything is new and not crowded (mornings and weekends). Childcare is awesome addition.

Best place to get balanced! Mind Body and Soul

people Rob lockers here on the regular. They cut my lock with bolt cutters

Abs and cardio kickboxing with charles are awesome- also check out cycle with A'Ja!

I love the running track !

Nightclub cardio is AWESOME! A definite must try

The only bad thing about this place is that the water fountains on the top floor are too close together for someone super muscular like myself.

After work out went to my car and noticed some one hit my car !!! Wow! ! And nothing could be done about it. Very sad. Think twice so much money invested into this new y, people have no class

Great gym , check it out!

Bodypump and kickboxing are my favorite classes !

Free parking but extremely limited. I recommend circling the building a few times.

Body Pump @ 5:45am is awesome. Stay for the 15 minute abs class following.

All the classes

Great hoop courts!!

Free Coffee

View from track

The water classes rock!

wear tight underwear

Great Gym .

The parking garage sucks. I wouldn't bother.
