Member Testimonials
The facilities at the Sterling Y are beautiful - clean, extensive, parking is easy, lottos classes.
Great staff! Fantastic programs. And lots of fun members...
They’re pretty chill
I love the swim classes and instructors. I would just like to see a little more time spent having the kids swim without a noodle or bubble. Getting the more comfortable and stronger.
Caleb has been amazing, encouraging, patient with my daughter. She has come so far with her endurance and skills in the different strokes.
Kids have fun
My daughter has really enoyed the aquatics instruciton at the Beverly Y. Furthermore, she has actually progressed as a swimmer, which unfortanately didn't occur at another Y where we found the swim instructors truley apathetic. Thank you for renewing our belief in the quality of the swim programs at the y.
Great classes, great staff!
Lila was awesome with our son, Cam. Even though he was much (MUCH) younger than the rest of the class and was struggling, Lily put in the extra effort to help him, even calling in another coach to help with his technique. We really appreciate Lily's commitment to our son's progress and her ability to keep him enthused in a tough situation.
It has so muc, it’s close and the staff is very kind and helpful
Very friendly and helpful.
Excellent class offerings
My daughter loves the cheer program.
The coaches are amazing. They are so good with the kids especially ones that have never cheered before. They are instructional and patient.
It's great! There's a variety of things to do for all ages for relatively cheap prices.
The structure of this program is just what our child was looking for when we joined in 2022. Since then we have learned a lot along the way and have felt supported by the coaching staff. Our middle child is following in his big brother’s footsteps as he joined the pre-team this fall, and we continue to feel that this program is a good fit for our kids providing them a structured athletic program that is both challenging and fun.
Access, compassion, caring
The facilities are generally clean and the people are nice. I’d give it a 10 but the weight room is sometimes overcrowded, and sometimes overrun with teenagers. I also appreciate the seemingly painstaking efforts staff have gone through to accommodate the pickleball community - I’d play more if there were more evening times, but understand you have other activities to schedule. Thanks for providing important services to our community.
Great facility and staff
Cheering with North Shore Elite is a life highlight for my daughter. Not only is she engaged in a sport that she loves, she is breaking through limiting beliefs, connecting with a diverse range of people, and being encouraged and supported in all areas of her life. This is her 5th year with NSE and I recommend it to friends ALL the time (some of who have children in the program now)
Great place to swim and the swim team opportunities and practice for the kids are great.
More coaches would be better with maybe smaller groups with each coach and have a skill station at each of the side rims. And spend more time on shooting dribbling and other basketball skills .
Well organized, devoted coaches, nice facilities
