Member Testimonials
I've been going to the Montclair YMCA for decades. It's a really great part of the overall Montclair community. Plus it has good facilities. The weight room, the pool, the basketball gym, the fitness machines. All great. Keep up the good work, and keep up all the offerings for kids!

Attractive wellkept exercise
areas

Variety, convenience, enviornment.
We love the lessons! Armando is excellent! The kids are growing so much while working with him, and they thoroughly enjoy the lessons.
I enjoy going here weekly. I feel like it is a clean and safe environment. The only problem I would say is the parking garage. It is very narrow going up and down and hard to get out of at times because of how narrow it is. I also was confused about the one way at first. Overall, I would definitely recommend this establishment to anyone.
There are opportunities to participate in many activities. The staff are friendly.
I think Janet is an excellent teacher. She is patient, clear in her instruction and encouraging.

It’s diversity.
Also - keep up with the latest ‘workout’ trends - and accommodating members interests.
I've been a member for 20+ years no complaints, except I miss the towels.
The aqua classes
Child watch and the people who work there are amazing, 10/10!
I like that I never have to wait for a machine. There are lots of people my age and I don't feel out of place. There are so many different classes to choose from. There is a bike rack right outside the entrance. I feel it's safe to lock my bike knowing that it can be seen by employees at the front desk. I love to swim and there always seems to be a lane with someone that swims a my pace.
Large, very clean facility, including the Men's locker room and steam room.
I enjoy being a member of this community. The staff are kind and helpful. I especially like the group exercise classes, steam room and sauna

What do I like about the Y? - Everything! ;-D
I attend four group senior exercise classes a week. I enjoy both instructors: Jackie & John. Great classes. Good workout and it is fun. I also spend 10 plus minutes either before or after the group classes on the weight machines just outside the gym. Lots of different options at the YMCA.
I have taken several classes that I love. I had a trainer set up a workout plan for me. All of the staff members are both helpful and pleasant. I plan on continuing to use the Y several times a week. After three weeks, I have yet to see muscular changes, but I do have faith that they will come 😊
The pools & water aerobic classes
The pool is super clean the lockers are clean and the showers are too only some people cut their nails and leave them there it is disgusting
Diversity of classes. Quality of instructors.
Very helpful. Instructor Wadley was very knowledgeable and the kids had a great time making their swimming better

Access to and variety of equipment is good. The squeaking door upon entering the building is annoying, WD 40 will fix that. It’s a clean space.
