Member Testimonials
The teachers are fantastic!! Their knowledge and experience beats other programs I’ve had my children involved in. The 45 minutes lesson time is great, allowing some shy or nervous children more time to get comfortable and keep up with their peers.
We love swim with Ms. Christina in Beverly! The Beverly pool is a little cold, but we love the class. Can’t wait to do more!!!
Caleb is our favorite instructor and Alicia is always a pleasure to interact with!
Great place to spend half a day with the family; swimming, playing in the gym and having a snack in the cafeteria before going home.
Also a great place to workout or take a class.
I’ve always had a Y membership and couldn’t imagine not having one with a family!
I really enjoy the facilities here and the staff have been lovely! I usually come to the Y to swim, the new pool setup has been great. Overall the facilities are very clean and the website is easy to get information off of.
Great value
I have high regard for the Greater Beverly YMCA Gymnastics (Recreation) program. My grandchildren have not only developed physically but also thrived mentally in their classes.
Instructors Olivia and Heather create a safe and positive environment, which fosters a love for gymnastics in their students. My grandchildren are so inspired that they are eager to practice at home to emulate the "big kids" on the team.
Based on my experience, I would highly recommend this program to any friend or family member.)
Beautiful pools , easy to follow signs.
Welcoming staff and atmosphere. Plus great programs and offerings .
Love it there, plenty of opportunities for my workouts. Maybe you can look into why the television (regular TV) doesn't work on the stair climbers? I really enjoy watching sports on TV during my cardio (Seems to be fine on the treadmills.)
Thanks
The is well equipped, staffed by friendly and competent people and as spacious and comfortable.
Love all the group exercise clssses especially. Instructors are A+! (Pretty sure the Y is contributing vastly to my general health ! )
Because ymca is my favorite place to control the stress
Fresh clean friendly affordable multi-generational accessibly! We have been members for over 30 years continuously- across four states- and are grateful to visit YMCA across the country! We started with the babysitting, then the kids and teens classes. All the while we have been enjoying the gym and the pool, and classes like the CPR/AES and first aid courses.
I’v been member since the Y in Ipswich was at the Boone Hall in Ipswich. 3 years an I moved to Beverly and I find both Y to be friendly and well staffed. I also know that the Y’ involvement in providing house care is desperately needed. I am grateful that finally there is a reduced senior rate. Women over time live longer than men and often with much less money. The only criticism I would have is that the reduced rate for many is still not enough to afford to belong. There are many people who cannot afford anything. In these extremely affluent communities of the North Shore,I think we should do better.
The Beverly Y is a bright, lively, gorgeous place with kind, professional and compassionate staff members. Thank you.
Clean, friendly. al kinds of equiptment. NEED FAR BIGGER SOAP DISPENSERS...incompetent nightcrew is not capable of keeping current dispensers FULL at all times...this is easy stuff....put 2 in each stall...far too may stalls....need large amost like Gloucester. I fell like Superman changing clothes in a phone booth....ceiling, quiet fans unlike insane jet engines that MAGA like people cant wait to turn on and disturb sane members.
Everyone is so helpful and the equipment is up-to-date and so clean and with the variety of classes, I can try something new all the time
community
*participation,engagement,physical and mental development!
We love the variety of machines, choice of classes, and the beautiful, clean space.
My child likes it
We can count on Y sports to be character development and sportsmanship focused, working on skill building and how to compete while having fun along the way. We trust and have experienced that Y coaches lead by modeling these positive behaviors and holding themselves to a high standard
Love the encouraging atmosphere and the strength training. Tess loves it!
The Y has everything I need. I do some of the classes, yoga, Zumba and use the sauna. I take my granddaughter to swimming every week and we're very happy with the instructor (Laura) and the program.
The Greater Beverly YMCA is so welcoming from the front desk to the trainer and the cleaning staff. It's clean and bright space makes you want to want to come back and try something new.
We use the facility almost every day. It is convenient, reasonable, offers a wide variety of programs and classes, AND has an awesome staff (especially the people at the front desk and in the adjacent offices). A special shout-out to Ainsley and Chris Harrington.
My son Cooper Paquin absolutley loves this program and the instructor is amazing always having something positive to say! Offering tons of positive comments to the kids no matter thier abilities giving them tons of confidence
Matt does an awesome job organizing the basketball program!
We have been a members of the YNS Sharks since 2017 and are very satisfied with the progress the program has made under Coach Dave. He has created a great team spirit among the athletes and coaching staff. My children have had overwhelmingly positive experiences and being a member of the Sharks has helped their development both in and out of the pool.
