Member Testimonials
The outdoor swimming pool is very clean and enjoyable for my family, which includes my grand children.
I've just started attending, as you are aware. I'm primarily there to swim but will probably use the gym as well. The entire staff are super friendly and helpful. My only issue so far is that the credentials used to log into the website do not work logging into the app. That is super annoying.
Started with Silver Sneakers class at 8:30 am Friday with Donna. Just loved it!
Donna was very helpful and pleasant, explained the process. Members were most helpful. Routine was the right pace; and i liked the variety of movements.
Yoga, pilates, and balance and weight classes are very helpful. The evening times are perfect.
Water activities.
I attend Zumba classes at 6:30pm. The instructors are excellent, however it would be nice to have at least one more instructor to provide variety without having to visit another YMCA. I always enjoy Tatiana B when she substitutes for the regular classes. It would be WONDERFUL if she could be at Powell regularly.
I also enjoy the line dancing class that is taught by Robert W. This class started right when Line Dancing has become popular again.
Once I came to workout during a Saturday morning when there was a swim meet. The staff reserved a section of the parking lot for Members not attending the meet. I thought that worked REALLY well but I've never seen it happen again so now when there is a swim meet I attend another YMCA.
KEEP THE EVENING CLASSES. Some of us work and can't attend classes mid-day or early in the morning.
The outdoor and indoor pool
The friendliness at the Gamble Nippert Location, the enthusiasm and care from most of the instructors, and the way they switch things up to keep the workouts interesting.
Aqua aerobics on Saturday mornings is the BEST - extremely professional instructor. I was so surprised to learn that she is a volunteer - she deserves a free membership for all of her talent and effort. Her class is the reason I joined RC Durr even though there are others that are closer to where I live. Everyone who experiences her class loves it. We can understand her instructions because she uses a headset with a speaker. She teaches from outside of the water so she can illustrate the moves as she calls them out. She plays music which works with the movements and her own personal speaker which works great in the room with difficult acoustics. She is a gem - you should do everything you can to keep her!
My family and I enjoy their outdoor pool in the summer. Wish it was open later on the weekend - like it is during the week. We are hoping to use the other amenities in the future.
Well planned and organized.
Everything. The staff, the programs

Indoor and outdoor swimming pools
Everyone is super helpful & nice. Such a great experience.
I haven’t had the opportunity to try out any classes offered. I’m caring for my 88 year old mother. I do come up to the outdoor pool 3-4 days a week and it is great! I do wish you would go back to opening the pool at 10:00am or even 11:00am.
I like pilates with Shari Weber.
I loved the senior dance class with Katie Stewart but it no longer is there. I also liked Nicole's classes but she is no longer
there.
I love the group exercise classes
The pools and swimming lessons
I like how friendly and helpful the staff is. How even the other members are even helpful. I Enjoy the water aerobic classes.
