How close it is to my home and love the aqua cardio classes
Both volunteer and paid staff are very friendly and helpful. The exercise floors and locker rooms are kept clean. And the piped in music is from the older generation's time period (60's) because we don't wear earbuds and headphones. Thanks!

I have been regularly taking Fitness for Life and Barre classes from Alison Catone.
Alison's knowledge and expertise in teaching the correct form and posture of exercise is excellent! She knows how to isolate and manage each muscle group correctly during strengthening and balance exercises. Alison always provides alternate positions for those of us that may be challenged by an advanced exercise. I am impressed by her creative ways to use the chair instead of a bar for typical Barre exercises!
I also take Fitness for Life classes from Tammy Allen on Wednesdays at Visser and I am very impressed how she adapts her exercises to be at chair level; we all get great strengthening, balance and I believe she sneaks in some cardio exercise as well! Tammy's ability to work with folks that use a wheelchair or other assistive devices is commendable.
I attend the Visser, SpartanNash and the Grand Traverse Bay (West) YMCA's and appreciate the cleanliness and friendly atmosphere at all three Y's!
We love the Visser YMCA with its professional, knowledgeable and personal staff... from the front desk to the workout floor to the class studios to maintainance, staff members present a pride in the Visser Y with friendly, positive attitudes, willing to be of assistance when needed.
Visser's remodeled facilities present a welcoming, clean environment. Daily, maintenance workers are noted working diligently to keep things pleasant and clean. We appreciate all their efforts!
Class instructors are top notch, offering challenging, enjoyable workouts, encouraging and informing participants of proper methods to insure safety and positive results. We appreciate the variety of classes offered, which aids members in meeting goals for both cardio and strength, as well as keeping workouts fun! Thank you to all the Visser staff! We love the YMCA!
Very comfortable here, excellent instructors for the classes. Everyone is friendly.

Love the group classes
It’s close. You honor my Priority membership. Often I can get a lane in the pool for laps.
There is always help when we need it on the equipment- it is clean and we enjoy coming! Thank you so much!
It is close to where we live.
Nice equipment.
Friendly staff.
Negative:
Before school out, the family pool.was closed from 1pm to 4pm. every day.
We were told we could use the lap pool, but it is way too cold.
Hopefully this does not happen this fall?
Also, we miss having the towels that used to be provided. It was so kich nicer not to have to pack and then haul wet towels home.
It's very quiet and clean. Wish you can add more classes in the evening for the people that get out of work later
Would like more variety of group classes
