YMCA South: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I've been working out here for just over a year now, and I love coming here! Friendly staff, good facilities and the sauna is a bonus. Some very good options for fitness classes and the memberships are well priced.
Positive experience: I just started going to the gym. The Y is easy and convenient
Fantastic experience: nice ambiance
Fantastic experience: My favorite Gym with basketball court
Fantastic experience: It's a really nice little fitness center with a Sauna !!!
Negative experience: Dirty sods that aren't made to wipe down the machines. Better still one chick wiping down the wrong machine. Always had poor cust service
Negative experience: It's hard to evaluate it, since they didn't give me access to the whole facility. But I have enough information anyway. I was thinking about starting working out there, but I changed my mind. Just a few equipment, would always have to share, and the worst part is that I wasn't allowed to take a look at the things that were my main goal here. I've seen some heavy bags from outside and I'm a muay thai fighter, so I needed to take a close look. Not every bag can take the power from a heavy guy like me. I requested permission to take a look at them, just to analyse how resistant they are, but they simply said no. That's it. Didn't tell me to come another time or anything. Just "no". So, I don't feel I'm welcome there and I wouldn't recommend it. Every other gym in Invercargill allowed me to, at least, take a look at the whole place. Some of them even allow you to have a trial. YMCA wouldn't let you see everything before making a decision.
Fantastic experience: Good people, environment and facilities. Spent time on rock climbing wall good group of people, plenty of help, and challenging.

Positive experience: Got a gym there.
Positive experience: Please please please get a better basketball court
Positive experience: Man Up Invercargill Thursday nights
Positive experience: A small gym with all the equipment needed for a good weights workout.There is a decent number of cardio machines, such as row machines, treadmills, bikes and cross-trainers. There is a good sized court available for hire. The facilities such as showers, sauna and gym equipment are all in good condition. Staff are available to assist. There is a limited range of classes but older people are well catered for. The TVs do not connect to the sound ports on the treadmills so you have to be good at lip reading.
Fantastic experience: Awesome climbing wall open Monday and Wednesday's from 6pm - 8.30pm
Fantastic experience: Great team & personal trainers
Fantastic experience: Heritage Building: Two-storey brick building constructed c.1910 for the YMCA with later extensions; designed by Charles H Roberts in typical late Victorian Classical style. In good condition. Significance: Listed; streetscape value for its interesting ornamentation and character.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, good equipment and facilities, easy parking
Negative experience: Staff are not nice
Positive experience: Had the equipment i needed. Complete with a dauna, bball court. The music was awesome imho, i hadnt heard will smith's party starter or neyo's sexy love since like 2006. 13 dollars is a bit steep for casual entry though
Fantastic experience: There are a good English club inside.
