Member Testimonials
The Kirk YMCA and the Salem YMCA offer excellent opportunities for exercising with a variety of classes and swimming activities. Am glad to be a new member. Thank you!
Sara is a great instructor!! I love forever fit and pilates. The indoor track is super for these hot days.
I haven’t taken any classes, but I really enjoy that there is a space for every individual’s fitness goals. I like that there is enough equipment in the weight area, so even when it’s busy, it doesn’t feel impossible to get a work out in. The locker rooms are well maintained and the facility feels well kept up. The only negative comment I have is that the studios are closed unless there is a class in them. It would be nice (as a woman) to have a space that’s a little private to stretch and do core workouts.
You have a variety of programs available. There are so many things for the youth.
I like the group exercise classes.
It's a fun place to be and to exercise.
Nice atmosphere
I really love the group classes. They have made a big difference in my health in so many ways. I am a regular in yoga, Zumba, Mixxed Fit, and ReMix Fit. My only problem is finding time to take all the classes I'd like to take.
Pickleball
I enjoy group classes and personal training.
Everything
For more than 20 years — since shortly after our move to Roanoke — I have been so pleased with every facet of my experience with the facilities and attentive management of the Kirk branch’s stewardship. Keep up this most excellent work!

The weekday 8 am and 9 and instructor Sarah is wonderful. She is so upbeat and encouraging and has a wonderful ability to encourage not being too hard on oneself.
I personally love the group classes. My son likes the welcoming gym environment.
