Member Testimonials

Love that we can attend these programs,@ the different equipment,love meeting new people,the ones where the machines are so helpful even your members are willing to help you with the machine,love going on trips when I can, you have so many programs that i’M unable to take advantage of,your front desk people are very professional always there willing to answer my questions always,I take silver sneakers @least 3-4 days a week, girls are so good @ their jobs, & I have met lots of friendly people,don’t know who’s in charge of housekeeping,but they do a wonderful job,some members are an inspiration to me the way they try so hard to get to get there,I only have one negative thing to say,my first time that I went to silver sneakers, I didn’t no what to do, so I just sat down in a vacant chair, the nice guy beside me (don’t no his name),but he told me to get the equipment and watch a lady in front of me because she was really good so I did,however there are so many people that take silver sneakers that lots of times new people go un notice,keep up the good work,thanks for listening.

My family and I have been members of the Y for many years. North River Y is our Y home. The equipment, programs, classes and staff are all outstanding. Yes, I recommend North River Y to everyone that I come in contact with who is interested in fitness. Keep up the good work!

Great variety, great teachers!

The place is clean and the employees are helpful.

Yoga! Wish Howard would get back to some evening classes - he’s my favorite instructor!

Love theool and classes.

You have great programs and activities . Great machines and trainers

Chessie has four Silver Sneaker class's every week along with being a personal trainer,every one has good thing's to say about her. ( her Mom Gene, keeps her in line). Margaret has a a SS class and assist another one. She instruct's both chair and regular yoga. Page has Tuesday SS. Alicia assist every Thursday and stands in whenever needed.
I feel like they are all easy to talk to and take everything into consideration, if you can't stand stand they always they will show an alternative option to get the same results. They go out of their way to keep their class safe. Usually when you might not feel good when you come in, you feel better better when you leave.
Over all North River YMCA is lucky to have them.

I have not participated in the programs and activities, but my husband has. He loves the senior Zumba class. I use the exercise equipment in the exercise room and I love it. I love the treadmill and exercise bike and abdominal machines.

Yoga, Zumba friendly helpful staff

The people who work at the North River Y in Hixson are awesome. They are helpful. This is a great place to get in shape.

enjoy the activtrax program. equipment is in good shape. Trainers are always very helpful.

Variety for all fitness levels.

I like the early morning hours to get in the water to work out.
I’m very interested in the Ta-Chi classes.
It would give me a chance to get out and do something for myself. I’m sure meeting new health minded people would make it an even better experience.

The staff are extremely friendly. Every time we come in we're greeted with smiling faces. We only use the therapy pool at the moment, but there are so many more programs we have access to! We sometimes bring our grandchildren in and they love it ! We love coming here!

I have been visiting North River Y even before I was a member. Staff is friendly, other members are friendly. My Kids played sports there and now my grandkids. Ymca is a wonderful place to visit.

Good equipment

I think you have a wonderful staff at the YMCA and I notice how your staff is always helping people that need assistance. You have many programs for all ages to participate in that are designed for their needs. (low or high impact, etc...) Your instructors allow people to move at their own pace and give modifications for specific moves if a person has a particular health issue, like back or neck issues.

I think they’re nice all around. We love it there.

Like the different exercising programs that is offered.

The Y is great. Helps a lot of folks.
Need more info about classes
being offered.
Thanks

beautiful clean poor friendly people excellent exercise equipment great ymca

Variety and sauna Jacuzzi.

Great attitudes among everyone. Excellent classes, both in the pool and in the floor. I have thoroughly enjoyed everything I have done, and I have just begun to try things.

Swimming pool

The main reason I prefer this location are the team members that are employed there.

Mike Davenport is the best. Always greets people by name and willing to help or make sure you are doing things correctly. I can tell he cares about folks there and wants them to succeed.
