Member Testimonials
The level of classes is incredible, and the price is unbeatable.
Friendly staff
Great programs for seniors
Jonah is the best swim instructor we have ever had. He really is amazing with the little kids and is so kind! Defiantly will recommend his class to other parents.
I never imagined I would be taking aquatics - but here I am! Despite myself, I actually look forward to my two classes. Our instructor is professional and energetic, and shares his good humor with all of us. Can’t wait for the renovation to finish - the Y deserves the best!
Love the smaller class size, the personalized attention our sons are getting, and the feedback cards on the preschool stage 1 skills achieved. The pool is chilly, as usual, but otherwise very happy!
My daughter loves the Healthy Kids Cooking class. She was always so excited to go and be hands on assisting with the food. Hoping the class comes back next session in the late afternoons.
So many available times! Affordable price, especially for members. Progress is monitored but but the overall atmosphere is low key and fun. My son loves class!
Great staff, appreciate longer weekend hours. Really like the Lift Heavy Look Lean class with Haley. Wish we still had Netflix on the machines.

This is the time for my 4 year old grandson to be enrolled in the swim classes. He is excited and happy to attend each class. He appears to be doing well. The program appears to be a well oiled machine. All and all we are happy to be there and will continue with the program.
Michelle Giacola's chair yoga class is excellent. The class covers stretch, strength, and overall variety of format is a class I look forward to every Wednesday.
Deb's ballroom line dance is a great workout and lots of fun.
Water aerobics with Scott.
Instructors are patient with my son who had ADHD.

Fitness classes
Many programs and activities available at multiple sites at multiple times of the day.
Great variety.
I enjoy the ymca in Melrose and staff there. I have been a member for decades, and believe the gym atmosphere is welcoming and positive. In your renovations it would be great if it becomes an option to use the heavy bags which have been on the 2nd floor and non-accessible to members for free use.
Most instructors are superior.
The gym
The program Director, Alex, does a wonderful
Job organizing.
