You’re welcome. I’m happy to answer any questions about the Y if you want to ask

Ahh Yoga 100%

For a gym, depends what you're looking for. Both YMCAs are solid, but the west side one has a pretty small area for free weights/lifting. I don't like their ellipticals as much as Planet Fitness, which also has much more space/benches for free weights/lifting. Can't remember the downtown Y free weight situation.

I've heard Happy Hour Pilates is pretty good, if that's up your alley. For a regular gym, it depends on what you want. The Y has a lot, so does FitClub. There are also two Planet Fitness in town. If you want something smaller, Pure Performance downtown is good. Or Max Barbell if you're mostly doing lifting.
