I like your weight room how all your equipment is grouped together.

Good selection of equipment means I’m able to get my workout in without a lot of wasted time waiting.
I am taking the Forever Fit and Chair Yoga classes and I love them. The instructors are awesome. They are friendly, caring and good at what they do.

Water Aerobics classes MWFS great!
Just started Fit program the week with my wife. Allison was our instructor and she took us through the 12 machine cycle. She demonstrated each exercise on each machine which was very helpful to my wife since this is her first experience with weight machines. She was very helpful.
Overall, we are very happy with the Salem Y.
The fitness center, which I use a lot is really good!
The lap pool is an exceptionally well designed facility.
Locker rooms are clean and accessible.
The Y is for everyone at all fitness levels. The instructors are friendly and have lots of knowledge.
Everyone is so helpful and friendly. We love the pool!
Aquatic programs, swim team, early risers, wellness center
I am happy with the amount and variety of programs that you offer.
I like that there seems to be some variety offered in the classes and times
Child watch! I love being able to exercise and know my kids have a safe, fun place to play! I do wish it reopened at 2pm rather than 4pm though. It would be more convenient for my family!
Like the warm water pool. Would like to see more open swim time.
Pickleball + gym & pool exercise classes!!
Amazing child care, great classes, and nice, clean facility!
A wide variety of times and program options. My kids love it!
Swimming, wellness center and basketball
The Salem YMCA is The Best. I enjoy the group exercises mostly because of the instructors. Janni is my favorite instructor because she is certified, knowledgeable, goes out of her way to make sure everyone is performing the exercises safely and she cares. Janni remembers everyone's name in every class and she encourages us. Janni works so hard on changing up routines so we are working all body parts. Everyone is so nice and it feel like family. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to tell you how much I enjoy the group exercises and especially the instructor, Janni. Please give her a kudo and let her know how much we appreciate her and how hard she works for us.
Friendly atmosphere, variety
Very clean facility.
Selection of activities is great.....for all ages.....and fun!! The staff is very helpful and really care about the procedures and see that they’re done correctly. If some things are hard to do, you are shown an alternative way which is not painful for you. Some activities are harder than others, but whatever you’re doing they make it fun!
Lots of different activities available. Great classes and wellness center
Variety - hours of access - the pools!
Don't participate in any programs or activities, use the lap pool

I enjoy the child care and all the machines
