Member Testimonials
There are activities for all ages and plenty of room. The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Nick. it is by far the best YMCA in the Kansas City area. We can walk to the Parkville YMCA, but prefer to drive the 10 miles ro go to the NKCY.
Sherry at the front desk just brightens my day.
My water instructor Angela is wonderful. She has kept me coming back to exercise for a few years now.
10 lap mile Track, weights & fitness equipment
What all is available to me. Love Sheri, Debbie at the front desk and Angela, my instructor.
I live it, however I would like the swimming pool warmer so the kids are not so cold swimming.
Love the pool, activities for the kids, weight room and indoor track. I do wish the facility was open later and had extended hours on the weekends. The showers could be cleaner, particularly in the family changing area. Otherwise it’s amazing!
I like the instructors of the classes that I take. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. The facilities that I use are nice and are clean.

The North KC YMCA is a great facility and excellently maintained. Staff are always friendly, do a great job providing community resources/engagement, and I feel fortunate to be a member.
The kids love the pool, and it seems like the little slide has been on more often, which is nice.
It's nice having the track and availability of treadmills too.
Really appreciate Challenger swim lessons with Karen and 5:30 a.m. boot camp with Sarah C!
Clean, friendly, work done for community, answer questions, most equipment works, and the only thing I was sad about is there is no longer an afternoon bike class
The only thing I would like is later closing time but I understand.
Customer service services and cleanness
Love the greetings when I check in and leave after my workout - many at the desk call me by name
I have been most impressed by the professionalism of the teaching staff.
All that I have encountered are very experienced in the type of class they instruct.
All but one have told the class participants to just do what they can and offer advice on how to modify a particular exercise.
The facility is always clean and had modern equipment.
My husband and I enjoy every visit to the North Kansas City YMCA facility because of the different classes offered, friendly environment, along with the pool, sauna, and steam room services. We also meet great people with whom we are able to greet and enjoy the workout. We love the front desk members, always friendly and helpful, as well as the class instructors, specially Angela teaching the River Challenge class. Thank you to the whole team at the YMCA.
I love the YMCA!
Easy to go there and be motivated to work out!
It is a good place to workout. I like to walk the track and use the weight machines.
Friendly staff. Easy access and a variety of programs offered.
I love that it is spacious with plenty of cardio equipment, and the equipment is in good shape. Another important factor for me is temperature! I appreciate that you keep it cool in the cardio area and have lots of fans moving the air. It's a nice well-cared for facility, and the equipment is as good or better than what I've found in commercial gyms.
Very nice a d caring place.
I love that Seniors can use the pool in the morning for exercise without being completely full of kids splashing, screaming, taking up the entire pool and having their swim lessons. As I have arthritis, swimming is one of the few exercises I can still do. Most places only cater to kids and ignore the fact that Seniors have needs as well. I realize that kids need to be able to use the pool too but I like the fact that the YMCA in North Kansas City sees fit to have the kids at different times then the Senior swim/aerobic classes. I recently got engaged and I'm going to recommend that my Fiance who is 67 years old join the YMCA also and swim in the mornings for exercise with me.
I love going to the YMCA. There are so many choices for all levels of physical needs. The opportunity to have a personal trainer is fantastic. I have made so much progress with the help of Angela. I have fibromyalgia and was in pain most days. After 6 months of having a personal trainer, I am without pain most days and limited pain on others. I have also decreased my medication in half! It has changed my life. Thank you!

North Kansas City YMCA has an excellent walking, jogging and running track, very spacious and surrounded by big windows to enable to watch the outdoor while you walk indoor.
