Member Testimonials
My family and I appreciate the community feel of the Salem YMCA.
The Salem Y is fantastic! The weight room is super clean with all the best equipment. The exercise bikes and treadmills are top notch. The heavy bag is a REAL heavy bag. There's a basketball court and a swimming pool which few gyms offer and I don't even know my way around the place yet! I know there are MANY other features of a Y membership that I have yet to learn about, let alone take advantage of.
Love this YMCA group
Inclusivity and joy
Amazing program!!! My girls absolutely loved it. Thanks Justin, Kylie, and Sam!!!
I love how well the staff attend to each child, gets to know them and their strengths and build their confidence!
I love that my child is accepted, nurtured, and seen for who he is.
I love everything the YMCA offers in terms of fitness and I’m pleased to know that my membership fees also support the community’s needs.
Has a very good water aerobics program filled with friendly supportive women.
It’s a great way to get connected to the local community, while maintaining your activity.
The multiple options for classes, team support, trainings, court, gym, & swimming pool. All make it a great option for me to stay fit & active, while meeting new people.
You also have the perk of gaining access to all other YMCA’s nation wide.
its great! wish you had a sled for dragging/pushing weight
A great program for every child!
Variety of classes for all ages
The gal at the front desk was so helpful and welcoming. I wasn't sure about parking in Salem, but need to find another pool while Beverly's is being repaired. The lady with the big smile encouraged me to give it a try and shared when the lanes are more open.

Great aeobic swimming g classes
the facility is clean (thanks to Ramona). Lots of interesting and fun classes. Beautiful pool. Wonderful locker room.
The Salem Y offers so many options to keep fit. My favorites are the group exercise classes, everything from rowing to spin to intense strength classes, as well as the various relaxation offerings. I play pickleball in the gym there when I can & they offer other sports too. Lately they have been offering a “Sound Healing” class, which I love. The Y makes it possible to enjoy unusual classes like this without paying any extra fees. Being a member of the Salem Y is a great deal.
Friendly, great facilities, welcoming to all, clean, great selection of activities
Most everything ,I have no complaints except one. Where the exercise mat is up in the fitness area, I would like to see the space between the mat and the wall vacuumed occasionally. And the wall cleaned of hand and scuff marks. This is never done. That's all. I always wipe the mat down and a little bit of the wall. Thanks
It’s clean and well maintained and I’ve really enjoyed the classes I’ve taken so far!
Fun place! Good people.
Good classes, facility and equipment.
It's fully stocker Gym classes and the Pool and Sauna or Stress room and the kindness that radiates from the check in Assoviates

First off, it’s about a half mile from my house, not too crowded, I swim in the pool and like a number of classes- mat Pilates, Zumba Wed night, strength training-
