Member Testimonials
Quality facilities, easy parking, excellent class instructors.
It’s very state of the art and has great equipment
All the facilities are maintained well and kept clean.
The facility is beautiful, large variety of equipment and classes. All of the staff I’ve interacted with have been so nice and super helpful. I just started and have attended a few classes, the instructors were great, really encouraging.
The atmosphere is laid back and for all body types and ages. I’m in my late 50s and not in the best shape, but I don’t feel self-conscious. Glad to have the Y so close to home!
Great facilities and equipment. Helpful staff.
10 out-of 10.
I love the KIRK YMCA!
I highly recommend the pool - hot tub - sauna - steam room!
Locker rooms are clean
Parking is easy
Pool is not too cold which is nice for laps
The group exercise classes
The front desk staff member (Danisha?) made us feel so welcome!
LOVE the BodyCombat and BodyPulse classes! The facility is great and the instructors are awesome!
I like the openness of the gym and pool area. Large windows, clean environment, and lots of amenities that other YMCAs don’t have.
The facility is wonderful. Love the pool.
Personnel are friendly and helpful. Like the facility. Wish pool hours could be extended. Understand staffing issues. Lap pool could be warmer. Overall the facility is clean.
Everything... hot tub sauna steamroom. Equipment is very good & alot of choices. Staff is great from the director down. Sanitation dude is especially nice and respectful (The one with the beard)
Clean and friendly staff
On my first visit, was impressed with the friendliness of the staff, the cleanliness of the facility and the operability of the equipment. I have been using the NKC and Parkville facilities and will say the downtown facility exceeded my expectations by a wide margin. Its great to use a facility that is clean, and the equipment and TVs all work. I will continue to use the Kirk facility whenever am able too.
It’s clean and well taken care of, staff is friendly and helpful.
It's a new facility close to where I live.
Location is great! Staff is friendly. Equipment is fairly new.
Friendly class leaders and staff.
Its probably the only workout place in KCMO with a Gym, Swimming Pool, Hot Tubs, Soana & running track all in one place. It has free parking for workout. Very nice staff & an affordable monthly fee.
All in all the best place in KCMO in my opinion to workout.
Few recommendations:
1. the lockers quantity / quality & size can be improved
2. Towels availability can be done...may be at an additional fee
3. Bench press & squat racks have limited quantity.
4. Hair dryers' quantity can be increased.
It's nicely laid out with a good assortment of classes and equipment.
Nice new clean facility
The staff is friendly and facilities are always clean. I like the variety of activities that are available as well.
Clean facility, nice lockers with built-in locks, not too crowded, awesomely warm pool with nice lifeguards, dedicated parking
CONVENIENCE, LOCATION
I like the place
Cleanliness, friendly, location
The community is really accepting. Bathroom cleaning improved!
It is spacious and bright. There are plenty of pieces of cardio equipment.
The lap pool is way too cold. It has gotten even colder since last year. It needs to be kept at or around 80 degrees.

We the staff are friendly. Pool ans spaare great and clean.
