Member Testimonials
The pool and pool area is always v clean. The reception staff are friendly and knowledgeable.
Sometimes the pool temperature can be a bit on the low side (the small pool).
The breastfeeding room is fantastic….but it doesn’t always feel private with the curtain partition which leaves gaps at the side by the mirror.
The instructors not only relate to the kids in a fun way, they explain the concept of the strokes on their individual level of understanding.
I love the feeling of community at the Y. Classes are great with knowledgeable instructors who can modify all exercises for varying abilities and health issues. I swim and am grateful that the schedule is great for both pools. I prefer the warm pool and it's not common for a gym to have two wonderful pools that can accommodate different sensitivities. There is plenty of equipment and the basic amenities are satisfactory.
Good teachers, they are kind and they explained everything with patience.
I like my instructors, Janet and Tommy they are both incredible instructors. I am going to continue taking classes with both of them.

Great classes
Variety of classes, quality of instruction
This is my first time doing swim at the Park street location.
I must say that I feel the classes are very well structured and the instructors follow through to make sure each child is learning.
I must also say that instructor Rachel is great! My son really got a chance to learn and because of this excelled in these sessions.
I think the Geyer Branch could use some of this structure, but from now on, I will do swim at the Park street location.
Great staff. All instructors really wanted you to succeed.
I love the intergenerational community feeling of the Montclair Y and the ease of access to workout machines and equipment.
I love both pools and I often can get a lane to myself.
