Member Testimonials
My children have been very happy at New Discoveries. They enjoy the curriculum, swimming, and the themes.
I like that the children swim multiple times each week and that they go on field trips.
I would like too work at the montclair ymca
I like the numerous group exercise classes that the Y offers. The cleanliness of the facility and the professionalism!
Ample machines to use.
The variety of equipment, activities, community.
I like the variety of forms of exercise available at the Park Street Y.
I like the yoga classes.
Most kids at front desk are very friendly and helpful. It’s so nice to be greeted!
Wish you’d put up sign in weight rooms asking people to not sit at machines on their phones. SUPER ANNOYING to wait 10 minutes while someone scrolling their socials.
Surprisingly, some people are super rude when you ask to jump in on the machine, so a sign would help!
Group exercise and friendly atmosphere and multi generation member population.
Other members are great

People. Facilities location equipment
I basically love my Y. But some things are getting shoddy. The gym floor is a mess. Makes playing pickleball difficult. We got new nets but it took at least a month. The senior teen room doesn't have a clock and the swimming pool rooms don't always have clocks either. Some of the cement is breaking away from the small pool and there is a small hole in the ceiling. In the cardio room one of the machines has handles where the materials are rotting away.
What I love is the people. The staff and my fellow Y members are wonderful. New activities are always being added. The music the teachers play in classes is amazing and fun and beautiful. The people at our Y are looking like family. Taste of Tai Chi, Chair Yoga, Senior Adaptive Exercise class and Water exercise class have made me feel graceful for the first time in my life.
I love the access to all the amenities that the YMCA has to offer. I am extremely pleased with the various exercises classes that are available which are not just targeted to one particular skill base. The instructors are friendly, courteous, patient, and kind which makes participating in the classes a little easier!
It's a nice gym with plenty of machines and weights to work out.
The classes especially Zumba.
The pool, friends I've made there, the Mahjongg that was started and hopefully continues in the fall, Yoga with Liz, Jackie's senior classes and the equipment. There is a lot I appreciate about the Y, including the staff.
I'd love to do more with the Y. I had talked to Lisa once about being on the board. I don't remember what that entails (it was pre Covid).
Thanks.
Polite staff, cleagood philosophy
