Member Testimonials
Hours, classes, equipment and location all work great for me and what I'm looking for.
Visser is by far the best YMCA in Grand Rapids. I drive far just for the Family Pool. Everyone is friendly and helpful and it makes me feel so welcome
The facility is well kept and clean! There are multiple areas of equipment to satisfy any workout needs! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable!
They have lots of good equipment for working out, everything is clean and in working order and the employees are helpful and friendly.
I love the proximity. There is no excuse not to exercise.
The family pool is warm enough for me to go in and get some exercise
I have visited your location on & off for the past 20 yrs. The quality of service has always been great. I'm always greeted with a warm welcome & smile. Your staff are always polite. It's so good to meet naturally NICE people. And this is what I always find when visiting the Visser location.

Clean facility and very helpful staff.
I like coming here because it's just small enough to feel comfortable as though you're coming home. There's plenty to do and to keep you busy. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They keep the place very clean and it's extremely rare that you'll find anything out of stock. I know I enjoy myself every time I'm here.
Friendly Clean Lots of exercise options
Quality fitnessclasses
I’m a transplant from Hunting due to a number of reasons surrounding the construction of the stadium. Hunting canceled my favorite class and I feel like they didn’t give consideration of the weather, snow removal, and parking to reduced class size. Not a good way to support both staff and students. I’ve been to Visser twice for gentle yoga on Tuesday morning and will go to cardio beat drumming this week (that’s my fav class!). So far I think the atmosphere at Visser is welcoming (staff) and I like the common areas that seem to be a nice gathering place. I only wish it was closer and my Hunting friends attended.

Clean and friendly staff
Being an elderly man and being accused of being a coach potato, I’d like to go in the pool do laps and until I’m tired and keep my body moving muscles fit, and it’s very enjoyable. Everybody is very friendly and I do a little bit of sauna sometimes steam room, but I’m really glad that I am a member of the YMCA. Thank you Walt Bundy
The pools
I like the convenience and accessibility

I love the Spin Classes and the large selection of free weights, machines and workout benches.
