Member Testimonials
Everything
The facilities are beautiful. The staff is friendly and helpful. I love the wide variety of equipment and machines offered. And my son loves the soccer pitch in the back!
If there was one thing I would like to see that is not currently offered, it is dedicated space for stretching. I spend most of my time on the 3rd level, and though i occasionally see people stretching here or there on that level, they are doing it in areas that feel uncomfortably exposed. It would be nice to have a small space specifically for stretching.
Personnel is amazing and kind.
The facility is always clean and the staff are always friendly. There's a great mix of equipment to help with any workout, and enough different things that you aren't stuck waiting for someone to get done with that one single piece of equipment you need to finish up.
Every thing is good.
It’s a great facility with good classes. It’s convenient and has free parking .
Modern. Clean. Good facility
The building is beautiful and the pool is nice.
I really enjoy the classes. I think you need better yoga instructors, though.
Pretty building, yoga 1 class, pool and hot tub
I love the facility, staff and modern equipment
I love the classes. They keep me motivated and coming back.
Most of the group exercise classes have really good instructors. One area that needs improvement: inadequate notice when a sub cannot be found and a group class must be cancelled. A minimum of 4 hours notice allows members to make alternate plans.
There are many varieties of exercise choices available
My husband and I love this location with all the equipment, classes, and amenities offered. It brings me happiness every time I visit.
It’s very clean and I love the set up
Friendly staff and nice fa ility
Wonderful Facility and great new equipment compared to other locations. It’s probably one of the most beautiful buildings that a YMCA is located in. The track is my favorite as well because it’s so incredible to be walking on it and viewing the other KC Historic buildings. The staff at the Kirk location were extremely polite and helpful. It always a great experience stopping by this location although my Home Y is Cleaver.
The pool, sauna and steam room
Friendly people, multiple amenities, and the ability to attend YMCA's across Kansas City and beyond.
Location, group class instructors
The staff are so friendly and accessible. They really care about the condition of the facility and the members’ experience. They set the tone and atmosphere for the whole Y experience.
Clean and quiet
Cleanest facility. Keeps pool open in afternoon hours. Great staff
Great facility, and great staff
My experience from the YMCA has been the most popular place to go to is because I love working out there, and going to the sauna and steam has helped me rejuvenate. I think going to the Kirk Family YMCA will be my favorite gym to go to at all times, and I hope that I can workout a lot lot more to do.
Group classes are led by some of the most awesome instructors I've ever had. General maintenance has to be such a huge burden, but there are some equipment and infrastructure that aren't quite a "10"; but it's the people on your team that make my Kirk experience a solid 10 - from front desk, leadership, fitness - literally EVERYONE there is a delight to see every time. Thank you for all you do.
I like that they changed the hours to fit the needs of people that work late. I wish they would accommodate a better price for adults over 75 yrs of age that do not have silver sneakers.
Like most of the teachers. Love some of them.
Like the choice of classes.
Love the location

People are nice, classes are challenging, and the pool is awesome!
