Member Testimonials
they are very inclusive
I enjoy the classes. Wish they would have more after 6pm. I work full time. Go to some classes in Saugus which is further for me, but have times I can make.
The staff is excellent and friendly. Facilities are first class. Equipment is maintained.
I only went once to the gym and once to water excercise. Both had very helpful, supportive staff. the front desk people are all great. Very informative.
The senior class fits into my life. The right times, days and the instructor, Kay, is wonderful. The work out is perfect
It keeps me from being a couch potato.
Excellent machines, great classes
The people are great and there is plenty of equipment and a good variety of programs and activities.
group fitness classes are excellent, much easier to get motivated for those than working out by myself.

So far I like it. Just started last week
Really a big fan of the facility and staff, very excited for new renovations. Only downside are the large groups of highschoolers who just hang out in the gym, clearly only there to socialize and disturb others. Would be nice if staff did something about this.
Water Fitness, Pilates, and Gentle Yoga are all programs that help me heal after hip surgery as well as being fun to do.
The instructors are all very knowledgeable and supportive and friendly.
Instructor s are very good - they make the classes a lot of fun and give us motivation to keep going.
Good mix of classes; however, some are just offered at times during the day which those who work cannot participate in.
The variety of programs and the quality of people that run the programs.
Instructors and staff are great. Variety of activities offered. Facility improvements.
Michelle's yoga class!
Great trainers and class selections. Only down side is fitness center space which is in process of being improved, and size of pool.
Friendly staff, and Michelle is an excellent yoga and TRX instructor!
I was member several years ago and so much has improved since then. The classes and instructors are really fantastic. The quality of the music and the ability to register for the classes ahead of time (but not too far in advance) is huge. I also love the App.
I don't use the gym much but I like knowing that I can if/when I want. I have done "Weights with Mike" and I love that he is there for support - the machines can be intimidating. The Melrose Y has been easy to incorporate fitness and self care into my weekly routine. :-)
I enjoy the aquatic facilities: swimming and water fitness.
Me and my family love the Melrose YMCA and coach Alex is amazing my kids favorite part of going to the YMCA is seeing him we refuse to go anywhere else .
The zumba classes and the ballroom line dancing class are my favorites.
I enjoy the water aerobics

Reasonable cost and friendly
