Member Testimonials
so accommodating all the time!
Good value, very clean (high on my list for gyms), nice people both employees and members
Excellent instructors and many classes offered at various times.
I usually attend Fit for Life 2-3 times/wk and each instructor has a different style which keeps the class interesting.
I also enjoy the SWET water class
I highly recommend the YMCA in Marblehead, Lynn or Salem where I have found everybody to be friendly and capable and the facilities to be clean, orderly and is a pleasure to visit.
It’s part of the community and is used by so many different demographics.
My son and I go there every day and it’s a great part of the day.
After hearing so much about how wonderful the Pickleball gatherings are I came to experience it. My gracious it was THE BEST. Great people and SO much fun. Not to mention a wonderful work out. The greeting at the door was also heartwarming and very welcomed after a busy but successful day. THANK YOU.

Great facility, thank you!
The new facility is beautiful! The exercise classes have been upbeat and motivating! I've appreciated the general friendliness and sociability of meeting new people. The Y is always looking for ways to improve and foster members interests and needs with new activities or classes. I find I leave after classes with a renewed spirit and with a feeling I've done something extremely worthwhile and good in the long run for my body!

Large list of diverse activities
Stephanie is the absolute best! I can't believe the progress George has made and it is all because of her patience and perseverance, finding unique ways to connect with him and teach him these less preferred skills while making it fun! He went from being scared of the water to asking for swim lessons everyday. We are truly lucky to have found this program. - Ashley
Great atmosphere and employees
My niece started participating in Gymnastics in the Spring.
I have found the staff very helpful, especially when trying to get her into a preferred class, with success.
Her instructor, Loralee is positive, patient and intuitive to the needs of her students.
She is attentive, caring and encouraging.
It has been a very positive experience and we look forward to staying with the North Shore YMCA to continue on this journey of Gymnastics!
the variety and availability
Kathy is amazing! My son absolutely loves his swimming lessons. They’re filled with fun games and songs that help them train for the real thing. These passed 3 weeks my son has gained more and more confidence in swimming with alone with a bubble on. This was the best thing I could have done, sign him up for the YMCA swimming lessons.
