Member Testimonials
It is a beautiful space and staff are friendly. The machines and the space are clean. The pool is huge. There is a little cafe that seems helpful. Loads of programs and classes too.
There are a variety of classes at all different times with some really great instructors. There’s something for everyone and there’s a great sense of community and an opportunity to meet some amazing people.
Although I am staff, the over feeling of connectedness and support is unmatched to any other Y I have worked for.
The cardio equipment and weights are top notch.
The Y is convenient, well maintained, and an active, vital place for lots of different people.
I’m really enjoyed going to the restorative yoga class on Sunday evenings with MaryBeth. I would also love it if the outdoor pool had early morning Water aerobics during the week before camp starts or On the weekend.
Laura and Matt were super supportive for our son at Sports Camp! Thank you!
The themes are great, but the highlight of camp for James is the swimming! Thank you for changing the wording from a swim test to a swim challenge. Water obstacle course was a big hit too!
Great selection of classes & amazing instructors & cleanliness of facility.
Our son loves archery! He says that’s why it’s a 10 :)
Everyone is so nice! They make sure the campers are comfortable and cool as possible during this awful heat! My daughter never comes back complaining and looks forward to going back the next day :)
You offer camps that my child likes to participate in.
My 7year old had a blast and wants to do it 2 weeks next summer!

My daughter comes home tired, and excited to go back the next day. When she gets asked by her grandmother if she wants to get picked up at lunchtime to have an afternoon together she says no, she wants to be at camp!
I liked the wide range of activities that the kids did through out the day. The counselors were all very nice, and they all learned names really fast. It was very hot the week of camp and they made changes to the schedule quickly to accommodate the weather and keep all of the campers safe. If I had any criticism, it was of the parking situation. The road in and out got very crowded and backed up. Perhaps if they checked kids in at the car and kept traffic moving instead of everyone having to park, it would have been a little easier. 15 mins is tough to get all the campers dropped off or picked up. Overall, it was a great week and my child looks forward to going again some time.
Love the variety and the communication from staff. We had a few things occur this week that required communication from the head of camp and the nurse and both were handled extremely well!
Improvement area: One area that was significantly better last year than this year is camp pickup and reduction of hours from last year. I can guess why this was done however pick up is a mess with everyone showing up at the same time. Something to look at and reevaluate for next year. Drop off seems to still be ok with the reduced time slot. Even a pick up window from 4-4:30 would prob be better.
They are very kind ! They are very good with the children! Have great communication!
We shopped around to find the best options for parent/child classes in our area and it was a no brainer when we looked into a family Y membership. With the benefits of swim and gymnastics classes we can enjoy together as a family, open sessions for both, and all the adult workout classes and space available - we knew this was the best choice. Everyone we've spoken with at the gym has been kind and helpful; and we are greeted each time with a friendly staff member. We highly recommend the membership to anyone!
The Y has a variety of fitness equipment and classes.
Love my Ipswich y and you can belong to all 7! Helpful informative second floor staff. Great yoga class
It is a great place to work lit! Very friendly staff, great morning workouts and love the new equipment!
Cost, variety of classes, good instructors
Clean facility. Nice selection of workout machines.
My son is engaged with the staff and when I come for pick up he asks to stay longer! That to me is a sign of a great program
Zumba classes with Ashley Springett at the Greater Beverly Y are outstanding!
One suggestion, the Y has air purifiers and they're no longer plugged in/in use. If you have them, why not use them, they don't get in anyone's way or require anyone to take any individual actions... just a way to have cleaner air for everyone in a crowded studio.
My son loves the Y camp. I love all the different activities and that they are outside most of the time.
Great instructors
Clean and welcoming environment
It’s run well and the counselors are awesome.

Lots of programs. New machines.
