Everything
I am most pleased with the Nir Y on Market St. The return of the whirl pool has plugged a hole in the in the list of missing equipment.
My daughter is learning a lot
Program availability and facilities.
Nir YMCA is a fantastic community. Mona at the front desk is such a welcoming light each morning. The instructors I encounter (Angie, Gordon, Susan, Natalee and Rachel) are all top notch! It takes effort to prepare exciting music, have excellent timing with cues and bring the energy to each class and they never fail. In addition to getting a great work out, I am grateful to have a place where I can use the sauna.
I like zumba classes and other group exercise classes and sauna and hot tub. It is clean and lots of friendly people. One suggestion is to add air purifiers in the gym after floors are refinished because I can not breath or exercise or be in sauna.
I love the offering of healthy back and bones, restorative yoga and WoW
I love the Nir YMCA! The staff is always friendly and helpful & the fitness area is always clean & well maintained. I feel very comfortable and welcomed here. I am also a member of the Pathways program, which has made the membership very affordable!
the pool
The staff is friendly and the facility is nice and conveniently located for us
The yoga instructors Christine, Kelly and Naomi are particularly talented
I cannot say enough about my Nir Family YMCA experience. Yes, the facilities and equipment are excellent. That could be true for any up to date and functioning gym. What makes the Nir Family YMCA experience unique is the people - the staff, the trainers, and all of those who participate in the many programs offered at the Y. Helpful, encouraging, supportive, accountable are a few words that describe the people who make the Nir Family YMCA "family!" I am happy to be a part of it.
My experience at the Nir Family YMCA has been excellent.
The enrollment process was very easy and smooth, and the staff was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The gym itself is one of the parts I enjoy the most—it’s clean, well-equipped, and organized. I also appreciate the guidance and tools they offer to help you reach your goals. Overall, the atmosphere is motivating, welcoming, and supportive, which makes me look forward to going every time.
PLEASE try some new tactics to stop people from using their phones while sitting on exercise machines. Simple things like a polite walk-up from a staff member saying "I know this is hard, but we are trying to keep people from using phones while sitting on the machines".
A more firm approach is possible. Take pictures and post them. Charge a fee for being noticed on phone. But I suspect simply pointing out that you notice them is enough. If your staff is not sure how to notice them, you can come see me. I notice 'them' all the time!
Friendly like CHEERS every body knows your name.
Front desk friendly to help new sign-ups etc.
