He brings amazing energy to every class and clearly puts a lot of effort into making the sessions fun and engaging. I especially love how he mixes music, including Korean songs, which makes the class feel more inclusive and enjoyable for many of us. While he may be different from previous instructors, it's clear that he is working very hard in his own way, and many of us truly enjoy his classes. His positive attitude and dedication really stand out. Thank you to the YMCA for supporting such passionate instructors!

Recently, I was in LA for a conference which ended at 5 p.m. at the LINE hotel. Rather than…read moreimmediately drive home to San Diego (3.5+ hours at that time), I decided to use my YMCA membership to check out the Anderson Munger YMCA in Koreatown. A large parking structure is next to the facility, which validates parking (mine was only $1 for around 3 hours). Johnny at the front desk was friendly upon check-in and got me all set up to join the K-Pop Step, Strength and Dance class with Rae (sp?). Locker room facilities are a bit dated, and reminded me of high school in the 90s. Thanks to you fellow Yelpers, I knew to bring my master lock (also from the 90s), and was able to get out of my professional clothes and into my workout attire, safely stowing my belongings without a problem. Rae led a spirited class, which included light weightlifting, step aerobics, HIIT, and a little bit of dance all to the backbeat of popular K-Pop songs. It was a blast! I wish that they offered this class back home at my YMCA in San Diego. (Pro tip - bring your own workout mat. They offer them, but they need to be refreshed.) Sadly, this facility lacks a water bottle filling station, so be sure to bring a full bottle of water, or be prepared to use an old-school water fountain. Shower facilities could be modernized along with the locker room. After class, walk to Gol Tong down the street and treat yourself to some tasty Korean Chicken! Next time I'm in Koreatown, I'll definitely be coming back to the Anderson Munger YMCA for a class!

He has participated in summer camp, Thanksgiving camp, and several non-school day single-day camps, and every single time he comes home happy, energized, and excited to go back. He especially loves all the sports activities and the way the coaches make everything fun, engaging, and positive. The coaches are incredibly personable and truly have the best interests of the kids at heart. The relationships they build are genuine. My son feels valued, supported, and loved by the adults who work with him. We couldn't be more grateful for Got Game Camp and the experiences they provide.
