Member Testimonials
The Nir YMCA offers a wide variety of programs and classes to help people get into good medical/physical shape and/or stay in shape. In addition this YMCA is active in outreach to the Wilmington community with children's and family programs and events that foster good social relationships and community growth and togetherness.
My husband and I use the pool for deep water core aerobics on a very regular basis.
Wish there could be a few more times and options of class types.
Everyone is friendly the areas are clean equipment is usually available
This is a good facility with kind people!
The staff is friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. Of the 6 gyms that aI have attended this is by far the best. Wonderful and broad offering of classes with excellent instructors are exceptional.
This is my place of peace! Love the Y! It has been such a wonderful escape and stress reliever for me and my kids! We look forward to our days at the Y!
How do I like the Nir Family YMCA? Let me count the ways!
(1) Volume and variety. There is literally a class for everyone. I usually go to the Y 4 to 5 days a week, and there's a different class I love each day. Plus, my husband and I have been getting into Pickle Ball, and there are beginner classes several times a week.
(2) Personable people. From the front desk to the instructors, everyone is warm and welcoming.
(3) Diverse members. I love meeting new people of all ages and backgrounds.
(4) Childcare. This doesn't apply to me anymore, as my daughter is grown. But it was a huge help when she was little.
(5) Extras like the pool, sauna, locker room. I don't use them, but it's great that they're there.
(6) Value. We pay a family membership fee that's reasonable and so worth it for all we get.
I've been a member the whole time we've lived in Wilmington, which is 19 years now. It's been one of the reasons I love this town so much.
The classes and friendly staff and instructors
I love all the classes and the community feel the Y has. I love that involves kids and adults alike.
Very wheelchair accessible
The staff is terrific and the facilities are always very clean!
I love the Y and the fun atmosphere and supportive people who work there. Gordon and Susan are my favorite instructors. One thing I would like to ask if possible is if there could be 20 lb dumbbells put in Studio A, currently the 15 lbs are good but sometimes you want a little more weight on certain exercises. Thank you!
Welcoming staff and a great environment to exercise and meet other people.
Such a great place to get moving and to try new activities. Staff is so welcoming and helpful.
The special health classes, pickleball, new offerings.
The people are the best
Very friendly and helpful staff. Very good facilities that include both lap pool and water aerobics pool, extensive wgt/exercise machine room, Very large gym for basket ball or children's programs, racketball courts. The Y has extended hours so that nearly anyone can find time in their schedule for exercise. There are a wide range of programs to suit nearly any interest. Also, I know there is some kind of morning pre-school children’s program that the kids seem to love—making new friends and plating with each other. We are fortunate to have such a facility in Wilmington
The staff members are friendly and competent. There is a variety of exercise classes which I shall participate in if I can't swim in the family pool lane. The Family Pool has a lane that allows people like myself to swim as well as jog/walk/exercise.
Everything: happy, helpful staff, meeting new friends, easy scheduling system, acceptance of all.
It’s clean and friendly
Family orientated
So many choices of classes and great instructors
The variety of classes that I want to take, especially in the late morning which is my preferred time for them.
Some teachers, especially Priscilla and Charlotte, are outstanding, and Will does a great job with his classes.
Pretty much everything, starting with Mona’s big smile of greeting every morning.
The variety of classes offered and times
The friendly kind staff members.
The friendly positive environment.
The things I like about Nir are the smiling face of Mona Lisa each morning as I walk in, the energy and encouragement of the water aerobics instructors, and the clean and well equipped locker rooms.
the instructors are wonderful! the people are diverse and nice and have NO AGENDA. A very "good feeling" place to be
Clean facility, nice equipment and staff.
Lots of claaases to choose from, and two indoor pools! Good value for the money.
