Very fun to see the babies in the water and helped my 15 month old get used to being and playing in the water. Also helped us know some cute games to do in our pool that are age appropriate.
We love Liz Adams. She has been one-on-one with our 3 year old son for several months now and he adores her. Her instruction style and connection has made a new and slightly scary experience a pleasant and confidence-boosting one instead. He has noticeably improved his skills and he - now scarily to us - seems to be over-confident around water. She is amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone. She makes us feel like she cares so deeply for him as a person and not just as a student or a job.
Our instructor was very nice and knowledgeable about swimming. Our son enjoyed his swim lessons and meeting new friends!
Individual lessons.
Excellent instructor.
The patience and care extended to my daughter when she exhibited a fear of swimming.
Good company to work for October. I will be there two months.
Great classes and instructors! Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Only problem is parking- the spaces are very narrow and there sometimes there aren’t enough of them.
My husband and I have been members off and on since we were kids. We love the YMCA! My kids have attended camps and after school there over the years. My son recently worked as a camp counselor this past summer. We absolutely love Ms. Katie!!!! Ms. Katie, Ms. Suzanna, Ms. Liz, Mr. Amir, Mr. Khalil, Sarge aka Mr. Blanks have all helped to raise our kids and we will forever be grateful for that. ❤️ I often encourage my coworkers to give the YMCA a try.
The people and staff most of all. It's a welcoming place for all and I am so comfortable there. Classes are great and varied. I love being part of this community!
The Instructors, the feeling of community and support.
I like that it’s not just a gym or place to go to swim. The Y is all about community. When you’re there you feel like you’re part of a family. All of the instructors and wellness coaches are always helpful and will stop to talk to you and answer any questions that you have about the Y and its classes. They have a lot of community health programs and a lot of group classes to choose from. All of this for one price, you couldn’t get anywhere else. The Y is all about helping to make the community healthier.
My entire experience has been over and above what I anticipated. The staff and classes offered are of exceptional caliber. I am blessed to be able to participate in the Y’s offerings through the Silver and Fit program. I am looking forward to regaining strength, stamina and balance through the classes you are offering. The facilities are beautifully maintained and very up to date.
Thank you for all the hard work and effort put in to make your facility shine. It clearly shows.

First of all, Mona. Second, all the great friends I have made. I start my day off at Nir 6 days a week and I’m a better person for it.
Our family has enjoyed Nir YMCA for over 30 years! We highly recommend becoming a member!

Lots of class choices
The friendly staff, the variety of classes offered, the quality of the instructors, the wonderful interaction with members of the Wilmington community who are also Y members, ample parking.
Calm relaxing atmosphere with a gentile and great teachers

I loved how the instruction was not too scary or fast-paced for my cautious kids, but it was encouraging enough to help them make good progress. I also loved having the lessons in an indoor pool, as I didn't have to worry about sunscreen!
