I'm an AOA (Active Older Adult) member of the Northwest YMCA. I found my wonderful retirement oasis in 2016 and have been coming ever since. I LOVE the instructors (Donna, Amy and Laurie). I participate in Fit for Life, Zumba Gold and Line Dance. I have made dozens of friends and look forward to each day at the YMCA for fun and fellowship. Other monthly activities for AOA members are Bingo, Garden Club, Sew & Sews, crochet club and monthly potlucks. If you are on Medicare your membership at the YMCA doesn't cost you a penny.
Please come join us!

Silver Sneakers has helped me stay active for 16 years and at 83 I feel thankful for the instructors. The exercise and friendship are helping me stay young at heart. I love Donna. She is delightful and fun and keeps us laughing. The variety of programs is an opportunity for anyone no matter what condition they are in. Members in their 90's can find an appropriate level of exercise.

Classes and instructors we've had, so far, are very good.
It has activities that I want.
My husband and I started the Silver Sneakers work out program and the Gentle Yoga program so we are currently attending the YMCA NW 4 times per week.
Donna-the instructor for the Silver Sneakers program is amazing with boundless energy while always watching out for members who may have problems with full participation and encourages use of the chair for balance or completing exercise while seated. She has a great sense of humor and you can tell by her following that members are blessed to be a part of her class.
Carol-the instructor for the Gentle Yoga program is calm, and calming. She assist members who have a little trouble with poses and adjust for them accordingly. She is a bright and calming part of our day each time we attend her class.
We couldn't be happier with our decision to join the NW YMCA and encourage our friends (who are our age) to check it out. Our friends can tell we feel better. We look forward to having membership for our 3 y/o grand daughter this summer for swimming.
Friendly courteous staff and congenial family friendly atmosphere.
Great, caring employees!!!
Something for everyone
Just need to be sure all equipment is operating properly and tv is working on all equipment
Hours, equipment and wonderfully nice staff!
It's open to every adult and gender.
Nice weight room

The coaches/instructors for swimming lessons were great with my kids. This is why we sign up every summer! I hope one day the NW Branch will have an indoor pool or more shaded seating outside.
