Member Testimonials
Facilities are great-trainers very approachable
It’s the people that make this Y the best!
The Gloucester Y is superb in every way. Great community resource.
It's new, it's clean, staff are friendly and helpful, good hours, a lot of variety.
Beverly YMCA is my home, but went to Gloucester and was really much nicer than I remembered years ago.
Plan to go swim in Ipswitch in nice outdoor pool there if weather cooperates. I checked by AI no outdoor pools anywhere on Northshore now.
Like fitness classes. Got started with 'Enhanced Fitness' (Lee Benson is GREAT), now trying other classes as can't repeat EF. The 'Fit for Life' instructors who don't keep synchronize movement with rhythm of the music decrease my enjoyment of the classes.
Have peripheral neuropathy in feet and arthritis in knees so have to take it slower at times but yoga, fitness classes, machines are all very helpful. The 'Y' is great community resource.
I found out about 'Cornerstone' recently, told a couple friends who have misfortune of having cancer. One at least is applying. A wonderful, loving program!
Friendly, accessible, facilities
I like the classes and the weight area
Clean and great equipment

I love the pool - best way to exercise
Pricing and facilities are great. Staff are friendly, the place is clean!
The programs are great! The instructors range from very good to fantastic! The facility is welcoming and is kept spotlessly clean. We love having such a beautiful YMCA and we do recommend it to our friends.
The Staff at Cape Ann YMCA is incredible! Everyone there is committed to making your wellness visit a success and a positive experience. I have always been treated with the utmost respect and given much positive encouragement to successfully reach my fitness goals--whether you are beginner (like me) or a dedicated athlete; and, if you have any questions, the staff will gladly assist you in any way they can. I would NOT hesitate to recommend this facility to anyone.
All staff is very friendly. The facility is very clean.
Excellent facility with many different opportunities
The personnel are always willing to help me and give advice as needed. Several of them have taken an interest in my progress as I start back to strength training at age 60! Susanne and Andrea have been especially encouraging and I have really needed their guidance on more than one occasion whether it was in my STOTT Pilates classes, my Functional Mobility course, or to adjust my EGYM machines. They step up and make exercising more personal and fun. Jared has also helped me on a number of occasions with EGYM and I appreciate his tolerance of us older folks asking many questions!!
I will say I really wish we had more classes because it is very hard to get into many of them. I have had to enroll in Women in Weights out in Beverly to get in and I wish I didn’t have to commute to the other gym twice a week.
Programs and facility are top notch.
Professional staff. Welcoming environment.
It is a well run facility with lots of different types of equipment and exercise opportunities.

We have been members since Dec 2025 when we first moved here and really enjoy staying physically active at the facility. We have also branched out to try yoga class and the eGym. In particular the walking program is a great bonus to get to know the area and neighbors. Staff is always friendly and the facility is very well kept both in maintenance and cleanliness.
