Member Testimonials
I most enjoy the water activities - lap pool, therapy pool and classes. I have also used the exercise spaces and machines. Staff is knowledgeable.
With no prior experience, I started an adult wheel-throwing art class as a Christmas gift from my wife 6 years ago. The pottery classes at the Northwest Y have become a regular part of my life as they give me an outlet for my need to learn new skills and to be a maker. The classes are also a social construct because the instructor and other students have become friends and an important part of my weekly social circle.
