Member Testimonials
New. Clean
Nice clean new building. Lots of equipment and services. Helpful staff.
The Y offers so much for the whole community! They have great classes with amazing instructors and I love seeing families and children utilizing all they have to offer. There is something for everyone! Cape Ann is so lucky to have this beautiful facility!
Great classes and instructors!
The only setback is in changing Aquacycle to Aquacycle Combo. It is too crowded in the shallow section when doing off-cycle work. If it is imperative to increase class sizes, a preferred way might be to follow the example of Aquacycle Fusion where folks on the wait list who show up can use treadmills or sometimes steps.This seems to be word of mouth, but works nicely. This way the cycle folks who go to the trouble of signing up promptly aren't having to jump on and off equipment, changing seat heights, milling around getting instructions--etc. We bother to sign up promptly and also some of us pay more for small group training in order to avoid high density conditions.
I’m a regular user of the fitness area and tell all my friends what a difference it makes in my attitude and my health. The social connections I’ve made there are integral to my life and I encourage other people to try it out for all these reasons. The facility is beautiful and it’s so cheerful with all the natural light flowing in. A wonderful way to start the day.

I love the facility and the price! Truly enjoy the community feel and how easy it is to settle in! I wish there were more class times available for adults in the middle of the day, but otherwise everything is lovely!

Reasonable rate, beautiful environment and great staff
I love the place
We were impressed with our initial tour ( Celia) and information she enthusiastically provided.
AND...then, when we signed up ( husband and I) we continue to use and enjoy getting to know the Y each morning, The facility is great:( well equipped, clean, nicely laid out and with SOOOO many opportunities for classes etc) and staff ( friendly, helpful, informative) are as Celia described. We are VERY pleased to have made the switch from the NS24 ( MAC satellite 24/7 gym in Gloucester) to the Y. The Mac, just so you know, had become less clean, had issues with remote entry ( and early a.m. workouts are what we do so remote entry problems were a problem) and the equipment was getting tired and not being repaired as needed.
We are very pleased as new Y members
New, well equipped and clean facility. And an outstanding Step and Sculpt instructor-Holly.

The Cape Ann Y is an active, friendly spot. It’s clean, bright, lots of natural light and there is so much equipment and activities to choose
