    Emerson YMCA has the friendliest staff and members ever!! I usually go to the YMCAs in my neighborhood, but I decided to drive 25 minutes to join a group fitness class at Emerson — and it was absolutely worth the trip.

    As a SENIOR this place is a GOD send to keep me moving and youthful❣️ Nessa is awesome she teaches several different classes. Mz. Billie, age 84, had this active 65 year old sweating as I worked through her aerobics class. I must say I love it. Thank you ladies for allowing newbies to fit in & not pointed out on my missteps🤩
