I tried my first 2 mat Pilates classes this month with Cynthia Berger and love it.
The classes are generally really good. I like the flexibility of going to different facilities.
My daughter and I have a great time!
Fitness center staff are friendly and helpful.
The newly renovated gym is clean and well equipped. Plenty of open swim time and the new sauna next to the pool is great for cool down and relaxation. Yoga classes are really great. So many of them, always well attended, and great instructors! I've met a great pickleball group that have taught me the game in the gym. I'm hooked! I'm impressed with how clean and well run the entire facility is. Folks definitely take pride in their Y. Finally, it is a great value given all the activities that you have access to. Something different to do every day!
We love the Keep Fit class
Nice pool, good equipment for strength training, Paul is very helpful as personal trainer.
VEronica's fitness classes - professional, inspiring, hard core!!
The instructor I have had for the last 3 sessions is so amazing. We love her
Ruebens is the best! He's so patient with the children and has a great sense of humour when interacting with them. He also recognizes when a child might be scared to go into the water and works at their pace. He's awesome!
I have enjoyed the Pickleball instruction with Jeff.He is a great teacher.I come to Kay's class frequently-very easy to exercise.I just started a new class-Golden Zumba.All the programs have been great!Thank you
Great instructor
Loving the pool!
Have been a member of the 'Y' for over 12 years and I think it has been a life-saver in more ways than one. Apart from the excellent programs and instructors, I have enjoyed the comraderie of fellow members as well as keeping my body limber and my mind alert, It is my 'Happy place' and I hope to be a member for many years to come.

I really like the aqua stretch class at the Melrose YMCA at 1:00 p.m. onTuesdays & Thursdays. A great instructor, Bea Mills until very recently taught this class on Mondays, Tuesdays & Thursdays. She loved the water & we had a great class. A lot of us are seniors & these classes keep us moving despite arthritis & other health issues. I am have bad arthritis & the water keeps me mobile; I can do things in the water that I could never do on land!
I don't know what I'd do without this class! It is a great group of people & both current & new members join us at any time. It is a nice community of people for many of us seniors & others.

My 3.5 year old has been part of the toddler swim lessons over the past 3 weeks. I've been very impressed with the class ratio (2:1/3:1). The instructor is very sweet (miss Emma) and splits her time evenly between all of the children. My son loves this program and we will continue signing him up for future sessions.
The programs are convenient and accessible.
Good equipment and a good variety of it, and a good selection of activities and classes.
Coach Alex is amazing with the kids and gives them opportunity to be introduced to sports at each kids own pace.
