Member Testimonials
When I moved to Louisville in 2011, I was looking for a safe place my grandchildren and I to enjoy free time. In 2010 and at the age of 63, I became to sole guardian to my 1 and 3 year old grandchildren. The Northeast Y became a blessing. After work (Monday-Friday) we came directly to the Y, ate a light meal in the front, and then the children went to play and I could exercise. On Saturday the children had open play and I could exercise. In the summer, there was camp and Calypso Cove and as they grew old, there were sports.
10 years later and retired,
-I enjoy the Y at least 5 times a week for water exercise. Plus aqua groups are friendly and caring group of people from all walks of life.
-On Tuesday and Thursday from 9:30-11:30, I gather with a group from 5 to 16 to play Bridge. The Bridge is a strong support for me and others- we know each others challenges and we care.
-As much as possible I attend and support the Forever Young opportunities.
How many water aerobic classes their are
NE YMCA feels safe and clean. I feel comfortable working out in the gym (I have never felt comfortable working out in gyms in the past). I like that there is a safe and secure place for my daughter to play and that the staff is patient and kind to my little monster.
Calypso Cove is wonderful, and I love the hourly breaks. My daughter is now used to the whistles and knows when to get out without a fight; it has helped her be mindful of when she needs to use the bathroom. Speaking of bathrooms! They are so clean!
I find the gym and the swimming pool are clean and well maintained. The staff members are friendly and cooperative.
Friendly staff. Ashley is outstanding. Friendly and knows me by name before I ever check in.
I liked that there were two instructors there to keep the kids safe.
The group fitness classes are awesome!!
Friendly, helpful staff, and Christian displays throughout out the facility.
Great instructors and convenient location.
It’s a nice facility and there are lots of classes available. Everyone is super friendly and they just seem like normal people - not gym rats. There are all kinds of people there and I love the kids club for my 6 and 5 year old girls!
Everything there is great for both kids and adults.
How clean it is.
Pool. Cleanliness. Lots of machines and they work and they're clean.
The Northeast Y has many classes and types of exercises that anyone could find one class to enjoy. I especially love the water classes. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly.
The greeters are very friendly and will answer any questions. Come today and try it out.
I like the friendly environment and the cleaningness of the place.
So many options for keeping fit.
Yoga and RevFlow classes
So much opportunity for children and adults alike.
Friendliness
The variety of classes offered at all times of the day whether it's early in the am, midday, or later in the evening; the quality of the equipment in the gym - much better than the gym where I was a member before re-joining the Y earlier this year.
Excellent facilities managed by very fine people
I LOVE Calypso Cove! I love being able to swim outside and enjoy the sunshine. When the guards clear the pool at the top of every hour and allow adults only to swim, I get in between ten and 14 laps in the 3 foot area of the pool and enjoy a couple minutes in the whirlpool. I wish there were more days for adults only.
Well managed, clean, variety of classes
family atmosphere
Atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming. Cleaning staff does a wonderful job!
It's a fun safe place for my kids to play.
The attention of the lifeguards at calypso cove is ! very impressive! The staff even in the snack shop is patient and kind. Everyone is very friendly! We also love master Z for karate classes!
The group fitness classes rock. Lately there has been a clear move toward better customer service all around and with the front desk especially.
