Member Testimonials
I really like that the YMCA is a place for every kid- my son has been through almost every level and he has become such a confident swimmer. The instructors are really caring people and they work so well with the kids.
Fun!
Janet is an expert instructor! She is very patient, and has clarity of step-by-step process for this 84 year old to finally learn how to swim. I'm so excited that I'm learning how to swim after all these years and many attempts! THANK YOU!
The swimming details of the lesson. I do not like the family room showers. They are messy, shower head knobs are caked with white build up and the shower heads are too powerful for such small space making it messy. The tiles and floor are molded in many areas, unsanitary. I don't want my child to stand on the shower floors. Why can't it be remodeled and fixed like the women's showers at park avenue and like the girls glen ridge changing/showers site?
The instructor are nice and personable.
The try to attend to which swimmers needs
Emilio, the instructor, is extremely patient and I feel like he’s gotten me more comfortable in the water so far with lessons. I wish the lessons were slightly longer, maybe 50 minutes as opposed to 40. And it would be nice to have an open swim time closer to the lessons on Saturdays for people to practice. A class schedule of what will be reviewed in each session would be great so if someone misses a class they’re not holding everyone else up with going over what they missed, they can review and research on their own.
modern equipment and friendly-ness
The pool is great
Good gym. But I wish they had more classes like yoga at night after work. The yoga seems to be always during lunch/work hours.
Also it would be nice to have something like a social hour or Friday socials.
I love the YMCA is the best place ever, all the equipment is great and service are the best
I like the variety of activities and classes.
I'm just about ready to try different classes, so that will be exciting.
the facility is fine, it's an old building so it's bound to have issues. I do see you trying - new HVAC system is a big deal, even if it goes unnoticed by pretty much everyone.
I have more patience that other members, so I'm fine when one aspect of the offering is closed for a week or two.
the staff is very professional too. All seem happy to be there.
Bathrooms still need more clean ups. Especially on the weekends.
It's clean, accommodating, friendly staff.
At the Y, Montclair's famed racial diversity is a reality. What's more, all ages, body types, and degrees of ability are accepted. There are very physically fit athletes in the pool, but also people who are using walkers when they get out.
Facilities, welcoming and inclusive vibes, group class options
