Member Testimonials
I like the indoor pool. The classes for seniors and the family atmosphere. I don’t like that it is getting too big and people in charge of some things don’t care about the members and change what ever they think. They don’t ask or get their opinion before they make changes. No body responds to emails. Sorry but I like it when it was a family.
great place
Great YMCA
Friendly staff, clean environment, family oriented, great communication skills when a change is in order.
Our latest visit was for the largest swim lesson and i have got to say it did WINDERS for my son. He is now enrolled for full lessons in July. We went to the pool yesterday and he practiced all the things he learned with y’all. i’m so very proud he did so well. he has severe anxiety and did this without needing his meds.
Thank you so much
Friendly environment, huge variety of classes and equipment, convenient hours of child watch and extra amenities
I normally go just for the pool from 7 am - 8 am. It usually is not crowded that time but lately that has changed.
My membership at the Y has literally turned my life around. 12 years later, I'm slimmer, more fit and more knowledgeable about my body. I've made lifelong friends and shared many joyous moments participating in Y activities. I love that my Y is such an important part of my Wilmington community. The programs are so vital and successful. Thank you!
The family like atmosphere
I appreciated a wellness orientation with Allon. I enjoy the classes, especially with Priscilla, she is excellent. I like having access to the pool, weights, machines. I am very fortunate to be a member of the YMCA.
The staff really care and go out of their way to help you!!
There are some classes I'd like to see two a week of....namely the Barre Lite class and the Core Skulpt class. It's hard to gain any momentum with only one class a week.
YMCA is not only a gym but a community with people working to build and enjoy fun and healthy opportunities for everyone in the family, I love to see traditional families and values in every location I visited, always with God first.
Love the y!
Great facility, pleasant and helpful staff. Enjoy the time I spend there. Staying healthy!
Everyone is so helpful and friendly. Especially Allon. He greats me by name every single time I see him! His smile makes me happy to be there. The facility is always very clean, even the bathrooms. I have had excellent teachers for the classes I attend. The Nir YMCA is one of my favorite things about spending so much of my retirement time in Wilmington!
The staff is very friendly and facilities are spotless all the time. Great place to work out
LOVE that Zumba on Tuesdays has been moved to half the gym. We need the space and Alicia is a great instructor.
Sometimes the Thursdays Zumba class is too crowded in that upstairs space.
Group exercise classes, friendly knowledgeable staff
I love the Y! Such a great atmosphere to get your exercise and be with friends!
exercise plus pool
The staff and instructors are amazing, variety of services and opportunities, chance to meet new acquaintances, and clean facility.
The diversity of members is inspiring . All athletic abilities are welcomed at Nir YMCA, and there’s an atmosphere of acceptance and belong. Nir creates a community of health and wellness, and it doesn’t matter where you are on this continuum towards wellness, you feel supported.
The Instructors are incredibly knowledgeable about physiology and keep you safe during rigorous classes. I’ve been a member for quite a long time and it just keeps getting better!

It’s organized.
It’s pretty clean-that should be a priority.
It has great instructors! Lol- I teach there.
Group fitness classes are wonderful. Instructors are terrific! Mona is always great and so is early morning John
I love the cycle classes with Naydi especially and other instructors like Susan. I love the option for virtual classes even though I haven't been able to take one. I love the 6 lane pool and am looking forward to pool improvements. I love the responsive and friendly staff. Mona Lisa (!) John (!) Alon (!) Miguel (!) All great and compassionate people.
We love Nir Famliy yMCA especially the pool
I love the friendly, family like atmosphere. All of the trainers and instructors are friendly and always make themselves available to help, answer any questions you have and give guidance. They take the time to learn the names or their clients and form personal connections. There’s a camaraderie at the Y that just doesn’t exist in other gyms. I love the number of classes and health related programs that are offered. The coaches work with you to help ensure that you reach your goals.
I like what the Y stands for and what they do for the community. They’re not just a gym. They are all about doing what they can to make the community healthy.
They also have great hours
Personable staff and variety of classes.
