Member Testimonials
the Y has Great instructors!!
I like the casual atmosphere and the wide variety of options available. The staff has been very friendly and I appreciate that the facility is open late during the week.
Everyone is always so friendly, helpful and really encouraging. Especially Lisa, Josh, and Roxanne.
My family loves the Y! We have done summer camp the last two summers and my daughter is looking forward to being a counselor in training! We frequent the indoor swimming pool most of the winter as well. I just love the friendly staff and welcoming family environment the Y provides.
The staff
The staff is so welcoming and supportive and the entire facility is bright and comfortable. I quite enjoy coming, which I do at least 5 days a week, sometimes seven. I simply use machines in the upper level - most of them - and walk the track. My adult grandson uses the lap pool.
We love all of the offerings for kids! We also like how there is diversity in age and race of the members. We live in Salem but most times prefer coming to Kirk. We also love that there is a hot tub at Kirk's facility. And We LOVE the summer camp at Kirk! Particularly, "DeCaf" and "Wipeout"! Thank you for welcoming us so beautifully to the Roanoke area!
The staff are always friendly, offers a variety of amenities for individuals that are in different stages of their health journey, works hard to have fun and safe programming for youth.

People
I love Sara's yoga. I love what the Y does for youth--a safe, welcoming activity center. I love the Y equal for all--old, young, black, white, infirm, poor, recovering, sad, happy, moms with kids, men playing racquetball. The Y is our planet at its finest. I love the Kirk Y views. It makes the sky accessible.
The instructors are very attentive and in tune to various fitness levels. Sarah E , Sarah W , Amber , Brianna are awesome body flow instructors!!!
The wellness center is amazing. The staff are so professional and helpful. It would be great to have some heavier dumbbells and kettlebells though.
