Member Testimonials
Friendly helpful staff--
Some of the equipment is getting very shop worn, need a face lift in that area.
Staff is great, equipment is good, place is kept clean.
You listen to the members.
Programs for older adults are fun, good for health, strengthening.
Varied.
The pool has good light. It’s also not as cold as the downtown YMCA pool. You just don’t feel like you’ve been placed in the basement.
There is something there for every age and physical level. The classes are awesome, the trainers are knowledgeable. Couldn't ask for a better place!
The variety of classes that you offer.
Love the family friendly atmosphere and live live Jeannie’s water classes and all the wonderful women in it. We have such a great time.
Staff, facilities, fellowship, availability!

There is a variety of programs for a wide range of age of individuals with abilities at multiple levels of skills. You offer a growing range of classes for my type of need for program which is Parkinsons. I enjoy seeing the activity boards showing individual's progress. I really love the hustle and bustle of everyone coming and going and seeing that all ages are involved. Love having the fresh veggies available from the garden for sale.
The Hixson Y has something for everyone...I recently saw my 20 year old grandson coming in to play basketball after I had just finished a cardio pump class. I love the low impact and the teachers and front desk staff are so friendly and helpful. I see plenty of kids running around and lots of us older people. I attend Livestrong H2O aerobics and I attended their program. I love it and have made forever friends there also. Something for everyone.
Regular yoga attendee, I enjoy the instructors on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I have developed friendships with some attendees as well. I like Jabrina at the front desk.
Our grand daughter is MUCH happier than with her sitter! No fussing or whining. Comes home has dinner and goes to bed. Gets up chirping the next morning ready to go back, gets dressed unassisted. Doing great! Its so good for her!
Allison was great teaching my grandchildren to swim. The coach helped my 12 year old to use the equipment and was patient with the kids. Thank you North River YMCA
Counselors are great. Many activities to keep my child busy during the summer. Weekly field trips are awesome.
They keep my kids moving with healthy activities
The staff is great! I credit the Y with helping me get back to physical fitness. I started slow with the water classes and now have discovered yoga and I love it so much!!!!

I enjoy silver sneakers
There is a good variety of activities available my daughter will enjoy. The counselors are friendly and helpful with giving you information. My daughter looks forward to going to camp every weekday. Thank you!
I enjoy the inclusion of all age and ability levels, and all of the staff is always kind and courteous. They look to serve their members in the best way possible and I appreciate their commitment to excellence.

Love our Silver Sneakers Class and every instructor!!! They all make it work for us.
Love Chair Yoga as well. Would like to get a class started with Missy. She fills in at times and is really good. All the instructors are good! Enjoying Tai Chi with our new instructor — miss Edie as well in that class now. Jabrina and Rachel make check in fun - they are very helpful and welcoming.
I have been going to the Silver Sneakers program for about 2 1/2 yrs now and if I miss a class, I can really tell it. My balance is good and my range of motion is greatly improved and I owe it all to Chessie, Paige, Margaret, April and Alicia who fills in some for the others. We plan on doing one of the Y trips in the future. The Silver Sneakers also provides socialization that seniors need and would otherwise miss. That makes a big difference in the way we feel as well.
