Member Testimonials
I am 75 years old. I attend 2 Forever Fit classes at Northwest and 2 Forever Fit classes at North. Today I had my annual physical and got great news on my test results. My BP is great, A1C is under control (w/o medication) and my cholesterol is good (with medication) I believe those results are directly related to being consistent in attending four classes a week.
I like the family feel about the Y.The different type of people young and old.
Very inclusive and accepting community. All staff is very nice and accommodating. There are many different activities and programs to do.
the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly
Instructors - Jacklyn and Terri - excellent and very nice.
I enjoy Art d'jour, the track at NW and recently took a class with Brian at N which was very good for stretchingg and balance.
I really enjoy working out and playing pickleball at this YMCA. People are very nice and there is flexibility when coming to play. The classes I take with Cynthia are outstanding. She changes the exercises up and the music is really good to exercise too.
I like the variety of equipment available., exercise classes and walking track.
Everything!
I like the track. I shld be training for a Half Marathon (but Im not motivated because of the weather outside). So doing 3 miles upstairs out of the weather is very helpful. Then I play pickle ball for 2 hours and after that I stretch in the therapy pool. Going into the therapy pool and doing my own Aqua Yoga class is awesome. I spend hours at that Y! Its my job to stay healthy and NW YMCA is the place where I can do that. I love it there!
Lots of activities and classes and PICKLE BALL
I really enjoy the group classes. There are varied levels of intensity offered and instructors even suggest modifications within each session.
The staff is your greatest asset. They are welcoming and engaging and epitomize what the Y is all about. They make your visits there really enjoyable.
The facilities are always clean and well maintained.

Love Dan Golden's forever fit class. Great group of people. Dan makes it fun which is the only way I can exercise!
All of the fitness choices that we have, pool, different fitness classes, many different workout equipment. Staff ready to help with questions and/ or assistance. So much more than I haven’t experienced yet!
Easy to get in and out. Lots of workout options, and programs. It’s wonderful.
I like everything about it. I would have liked to see a more prominent notification that the cardio room is scheduled to be shut down for ten days. Something more than a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper taped to the room entrance. Also an explanation of what the upgraded room will entail.
Love the pool!
I love the lazy River water classes with Denise. She is an excellent instructor and motivator. The class is limited to 30, however, no restriction is in place for additional participants. What’s the point of getting there early, getting a straw, and not restricting latecomers from entering. 30 people is max or someone is going to get hurt.
It would be wonderful if you offered 2 levels for this class, a low impact class and high impact class. Those of us who want a cardio workout are held back because it’s impossible to run when the class is over crowded and participants are walking side by side talking. It’s an accident waiting to happen. I wish you would add another River class with Denise on Thursday or Friday morning. That would be great.
