Fantastic experience: The staff is wonderful and the facilities are great for working out. They deserve special recognition for making showers available during the early aftermath of Helene. I live in north Asheville and it's a viable alternative to the downtown location.

Woodfin YMCA

Thank you so much for sharing!

James Cassara 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: The variety of classes, quality of staff, and (most of all) sense of community, make the Woodfin YMCA a vital part of my emotional and physical well-being. I can go to other Y locations for a pool, basketball court, or larger space. But I prefer the "Small YMCA feel" of the Woodfin location.

Woodfin YMCA

James, thank you for your kind words. We are very glad to hear that you’re enjoying the classes, the staff, and the community. We're so happy to serve you and can't wait to see you again soon!

Channah VanRegenmorter 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Grateful for the Y’s great hours, offerings, and the compassionate Kylie with the Woodfin Y childcare makes a safe and welcoming place for my baby. I'm loving the egym, and just by using it 3-4 times a week, I've experienced significant health benefits, including lower A1c and cholesterol.

Woodfin YMCA

Channah, thank you so much for the kind review! We are so glad to hear you and your child are enjoying the Woodfin YMCA. Be well!

Kimberly Herman 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love the staff and class instructors and enjoy the sense of community with others in my classes! There are several outstanding instructors who work to make it fun, educational, and safe (to avoid injuries). I am a regular 5 times a week. Majority of my classes are M-F in the mornings and I wish I could take every class of interest - not enough time or there are schedule conflicts. Recently traveled to Phoenix and looked at 2 YMCAs for classes. Woodfin EXCELS in programming and state of the art equipment such as with eGym. These other Ys did not have TRX, Les Mills Body Pump, and more. I appreciate the investment Woodfin has made and enjoy the benefits of it. Thank you!

Woodfin YMCA

Kimberly,Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! We are always looking for ways to improve our member experience so thank you for noticing! We appreciate you!

Positive experience: After a year of belonging to the YMCA, I thought I would take advantage of the fact I had an appt in the building. I chose to explore working out at the Woodfin Y for convenience on this day. For years, I've seen signs the gym was on 2nd floor. Why not check it out! I found the check-in process unclear. I used the elevator and it opened up into the gym. No signs to say the check-in desk was on the first floor, so at first I waited at the desk that was present on the 2nd floor gym. Nobody was there for about 3 min. Decided to use the bathroom and then walked up tothe desk again. A worker directed me downstairs. Two desks and the workers were hardly the cheery dispositions of those at the downtown Y. I barely got a "hello, how can I help you?" According to signs, I had to "sign in. For some reason, I thought literally bc I didn't see the ID reader on the desk. Other than the odd, unclear, and in my opinion not good Feng Shui check-in, the gym itself looked clean and felt comfortable. I liked that they had two classrooms and two smaller semi private workout areas. Not sure I'll ever come to this gym again as it's not the closest to work and home. I still enjoy the Y.

Woodfin YMCA

Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your feedback. We will share this with our team. Have a great day.

Karen 1 year ago

Negative experience: This YMCA is not diverse staff is condescending and ignorant. Classes are horrible and the instructors don’t acknowledge no comers to group and help them learn the correct form for the exercises so that they don’t hurt themselves. This YMCA doesn’t not know anything about diversity and inclusion and is not friendly to people of color at ALL. Speaking to management was pointless. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE ESPECIALLY PEOPLE OF COLOR.

Woodfin YMCA

Karen, thank you for your feedback. We would like to know more about your experience. Please call 828-505-3990 and ask for Chris Fox, our associate executive director.

Negative experience: These hours are disgraceful. A gym created for young people now meant for old people. No more a outlet for a young person to go on a Friday or Saturday evening. Change your name.

We our best to meets the needs for each location. Don't forget your membership doe give you access to all 7 of our locations.

Ellen S. 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I love the Woodfin YMCA, but can I tell you about my trainer? I've had the privilege of working with Natalie L. for over a year. Her positive and motivating attitude has been instrumental in helping me achieve my fitness goals. She possesses impressive knowledge of her clients' strengths and weaknesses, customizing workouts to improve both. She also maintains open communication demonstrating her commitment. Natalie is not just a trainer but an accredited expert who fosters a trustworthy and professional atmosphere. Working with her has been both productive and enjoyable, making workouts fun and engaging. In my experience, Natalie is undeniably one of the best in the industry. Her commitment to helping clients get fit, regardless of challenges or issues, sets her apart. Her training sessions are worth every penny, and I am thrilled with the progress I've achieved under her guidance. If you seek a knowledgeable, adaptable, compassionate, and dedicated fitness professional for your journey, this trainer is the ideal choice.

Woodfin YMCA

Ellen, thank you so much for taking the time to send us this wonderful review. We love Natalie as well!

Fantastic experience: Love that there are many classes to choose from throughout the day and that you can reserve your spot on the app so you know if it will be full or not.

Lots of new brand new equipment that I have yet to try.

Stetson Deese 1 year ago

Positive experience: Super friendly express style (satellite) YMCA. Staff seemed flawless overall. All the necessary equipment available with locker room shower facilities. No sauna steamer whirlpool etc at this location, that is not what this building is designed for. All the necessary machines, cables and free weights for full body training. Largest dumbbell was 110 pounds for whoever wants to shrug it. I was able to goblet squat the 110 pounder on todays leg day. No hack squat machine or calve machines for leg training. Multiple fitness and stretching rooms, many classes to sign up for and a personal training desk. The front desk had lock rentals available which was convenient. Mostly older crowd present at the time and a beautiful facility with a pleasant view. Everything I was looking for in a smaller YMCA.

Woodfin YMCA

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Stetson! We appreciate you taking the time to give us valuable feedback.

Stephanie El-Hajj 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I hate going to the downtown Asheville location. The smell of chlorine and the mugginess is truly not for me. And it's just crazy packed. Always. I was pleased as punch to find the Woodfin location. I spent my first two months trying out most every class before finally settling on the early morning yoga with Hilary. She's WONDERFUL. The ladies at the front greet me warmly, the machines are never fully booked when I'm there, the ample parking is helpful, and they're actively making improvements to the facilities. I also like that you register for classes 24 hours before class starts. It prevents folks from booking far out and no-showing. With my monthly membership, I'm spending something like $7 a class. That's just silly what a great deal that is.

Woodfin YMCA

Stephanie, we are so pleased to hear you are enjoying the Woodfin YMCA. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

douglas may 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to the Woodfin YMCA for 8 years and enjoy everything about it except when they cover the mirrors in front of the cable-cross machine with posters. The mirrors are for checking one's form when exercising. They should not be used as a bulletin board. As a shoulder replacement person, important to check balance and form when doing rehab exercises.

Woodfin YMCA

Douglas - Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We have shared it with the team at Woodfin.

Samantha Fore 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is by far my favorite YMCA in the area! They’re one of the few who have a more open pool schedule, allowing kids more open swim time. They also have a water slide in the pool, a hot tub, a steam room and a sauna!! We had a blast, and the pool is a great size! Even with a few sections being roped off for private lessons and lap swim, and then another small section having to be blocked off for the water slide, there was still plenty of room to swim around freely, although there was quite a lot of other members enjoying the pool that day. Will most definitely be going back to this one, before choosing the others we usually regular, due to distance. Plus, it’s in a beautiful part of town, and is very clean!

Pat Abrams 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of the YMCA in Woodfin for several years and always have a great experience. The space is always clean and well equipped, the staff is helpful and the environment is friendly. I have worked with several personal trainers and received expert coaching from each. I am currently enrolled in small group with Natalie and am amazed at her knowledge of the human body. She's kicking some butt and it is much appreciated!
