Member Testimonials
Best members, best instructors. Raised my whole family in the YMCA and I was lucky to have had the opportunity!!
So varied with great instructors.
I like that there are diverse activities offered for my husband and me, including mat pilates, gentle yoga, tai chi, and the LIVE Strong program.
I appreciate the trainers who lead our group, Anna and Jeff
I love the classes, especially the Stay Fit, even though it’s a large group Kay makes it personal and we’re a very supportive group. Makes you feel part of it 😊. I also have loved the water stretch, it’s fun with a friendly group.
Varied activities…something for every one. Great instructors and nice fellow members.

Melrose YMCA is doing a great job updating their facility. Especially the areas where their members need it most. And I can’t say enough about their staff. Keep up the good work, Melrose, Y👍
Great instructors! Love Mon weights, Tues taichi, zumba. People friendly, everything clean. like to have dance or mediation classes, more yoga.
My family has been a member of YMCA for over 20 years. My wife and I have used the fitness center / weight rooms to support our individual fitness programs. Both of our children learned to swim at the Y; and now both of them work there! We are very fortunate to live in a community with an active YMCA. Lastly, the membership is so reasonably priced....it's worth it!!!
