Great people and classes. Instructors are wonderful.
Everyone is friendly and happy to see you from the front desk to all the class instructors and it makes you feel glad you came!
Love my dance aerobic class on Monday afternoons. The instructor exudes energy and positive vibes. Music is varied and choreography easy to follow without getting boring. I wish it was offered more than once a week.
Great staff, great members! Very friendly facility.

Great variety of classes. I like that you can reserve a spot for classes online. Thank you that there is gym time available for pickleball.
The coaches are awesome and very attentive at Nu'uanu location. I've enrolled my son in 1 other YMCA location but I feel Nu'uanu gave us more security with their scheduling. With the other location, we were moved around twice due to conflict in coach's scheduling. This is after we were confirmed to certain time slot. Ended up not being able to complete the whole month of the class we booked. My son has really improved at Nu'uanu location. I love that they have more options with their class schedules, and that their seatings are elevated so we can view the whole (pool) class.
Instructor are good teachers
Super friendly staff and great facilities. However, a problem has arisen over the last few weeks regarding lap swimming. There has been a sudden influx of morning lap swimmers that peaks between 7:15 am and 8:30 am. This influx is made up primarily of older swimmers not actually swimming laps but "aqua jogging" in the lap swimming lanes. I have a few suggestions:
1. If a swimmer chooses to use a flotation device around their waist, they should not be allowed to swim in any of the five "lap swimming" lanes, and only allowed in the one "therapy lane." Right now there are "aqua joggers" using the 5 lap swimming lanes between 7:15 and 9 am.
2. Eliminate the 7 am to 7:15 lifeguard break, by providing lifeguard relief with another lifeguard and not simply shutting down the pool, It would help spread out the increased pool usage between 630 am and 730 am. Right now, most swimmers leave at 7 am, and a new group of swimmers starts right at 7:15 because swimmers don't want to have their workout interrupted by the break. Feel free to contact me.

The instructors were kind and knowledgeable - Miss Katie was our class instructor and she was great! Very patient and taught our kids well. Also a shoutout to Zach who was extremely helpful as we were getting signed up, helping me figure out the best fit for my kids. Thank you guys so much!
The small class structure.
Good teachers, my son grew up in these classes and can swim no problem.
I like that there’s Sunday classes and my daughter seem to enjoy her teachers.
Excellent swimming experience for both my kids. They both got better with their swimming and fear of the water.
Our daughter has been attending swim lessons at Nuuanu Aquatics for the past 7 years. She is a skilled swimmer now, able to swim breaststroke, backstroke, butterfly and freestyle. All her instructors have been amazing - super patient, nurturing, and watchful. At no time have we ever been concerned for her safety. For the price, these swim lessons cannot be beat. We always tell our friends where we go for swim lessons.
It is a good class to get my daughter comfortable with the idea of swim lessons. She has been getting more confident and is having fun.
I like how the instructors took their time to assess the student levels and needs, while learning
My son likes daily lessons. The instructors are nice.
The swim instructors are excellent. My son actually looks forward to going and seeing his swim instructor, An. Great team of swim instructors. Very impressed.
Kids enjoy the experience and it seems like they’re learning while having a good time.

Opportunity to meet a lot of different people. Helps motivate me to keep work out. A place to play racketball.
