Member Testimonials
I joined to lose weight. The Y's hours and facilities are convenient and effective. It's easy to slip into a good routine, which includes loosening up in the pool and winding down in the steam room. I'm also grateful that I'm able to place my membership on hold for short periods not only for medical reasons but for vacations. However, thanks to the Y's national membership I'm able to exercise at other Y's when I'm away. No excuse for me not to lose weight!
I’ve beeen a member for decades. I wish the pool deck was warmer, but otherwise it is a great place
We love the Y. Close to home. It's clean, Perfect for something to do in winter. The Cyber, the Elliptical, still want to try the pool and some yoga.
Friendly, clean, positive spirit...esp. when the men's locker room steam room is working properly...that's been a disappointment of late.
Such a wonderful loving environment.
Good facilities and programs
The facilities, gym equipment and swimming pool offer all the options for my personal fitness program. The y Ipswich team (lifeguards, reception, fitness trainers) are first rate professionals and great people.

I love the Y! There is something for everyone there, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Come on down! You will be glad you did! An essential Ipswich institution!
I like the different rooms for each age level, the outdoor playground, and the access the program has to the YMCA gymnasium/pool. All the teachers are very friendly and seem to genuinely care about the children.
It is a great place
I love all of the new classes you are offering in Ipswich starting this January! I hope you keep it up with all of these classes - in December, the class schedule was pretty skimpy. I would love it if you would offer a Surf & Strength class in Ipswich like you do in Beverly!!

I brought my girlfriend in and signed her up as a member with me. I’m very happy with the Ipswich YMCA!
The instructors!! They are devoted, positive and so very friendly. Specifically: JANE, GAIL and JAN. The front desk staff: always saying hello. Wish they had name tags so I could learn their names. But they are a positive, welcoming faces!!
Pet peeve: hard rock, too loud music played while old folks are stretching on a sleepy Sunday afternoon.
Clients sitting on a machine, talking in their phone. My husband has stood by waiting, then finally given up on that machine. He doesn’t want to create a scene.
Clean and friendly. Good equipment and classes
