Member Testimonials
Very organized
It’s a great facility and a huge improvement over the old Y downtown. It’s obviously a hit as the parking lot is often full. Wonderful staff.
Great facility, friendly service, good value. I do think that the cleaning crew could up their game however. All six soap dispensers in the men’s locker room were empty last week - for 4 consecutive days! Lots of members grumbling about it. Not good.
We love the splash pad! The kids had a blast.
I enjoy the group exercise classes
Great facility. Well kept. Issues that do arise are taken care of instead of left in a state of disrepair.
This membership changed my life. As a single mom, the amount of resources offered to me at the Y are numerous. Being able to bring my child with me to Kids' Club while I explore new fitness opportunities has helped me reclaim my body and my life. I love trying new classes and programs- even things that are out of my comfort zone are made welcoming by how kind the instructors are and the culture created by other Y members. I never would have seen myself going to "strength train together" or "rise and shine boot camp" but the Y has allowed me to make fitness a central part of my life, in a way that no other gym could. The offerings at the Cape Ann YMCA feel akin to a boutique gym but are accessible to people like me with limited resources. Thank you.
Friendly staff . Excellent classes and Instructors .
Amazing place !
My wife and I joined the YMCA Cornerstone Program. The restorative yoga has provided the basic skills to learn to relax physically, mentally and emotionally. Kirsty Yetter has inspired me to "restore and revitalize" my mind, body and spirit by concentrating on stillness and breathing. This class has improved my outlook on life and quality of life since I have managed to improve my sleeping habits, and best of all, my golf swing and other physical activities.
I recently attended the Energy Medicine and Cancer "Don't Just Survive - Thrive!" Session. Dianne Faure provided exercise techniques to relieve physical symptoms and mental/emotional symptoms. It is quite new to me so I still have a learning curve to achieve my goals. I do find it interesting and amazed on its usefulness.
So, it is almost time for me to participate in other calendar activities and I am looking forward to it. It has been a challenge so I must give you all a big thumbs up for the inspiration to heal and enjoy life. It's been a team effort so I am very thankful for the support and for all you do for our community!

The facility is so sleek and modern that I am amazed every time I go there that it is in Gloucester. Lots of aerobic and weights equipment. Many well run classes.
Great programs, always clean and people are very friendly. Mobile App needs to be better.... Particularly the program schedule lookup function.
The equipment and various classes.
Just a lovely fun welcoming place!
Showers in the family shower were not ideal but otherwise, all was lovely. We had a great time.
I love how it is a family membership.
Great facilities. Friendly staff.
The Y is clean, friendly & well-run. Everyone is very helpful. No complaints.
Great new facility, very clean and stocked with plenty of machines and free weights
Yeah sure
A diversity of high quality equipment to serve a variety of physical needs and a high quality, caring staff.
The facility is great. The only thing I would suggest is having more mats for people to use on the floor
Great facility with lots of equipment and plenty of space.
I love their spin classes
Everything
I am a veteran of World War 2 and am trying to get my strength back so I can go
for walks by myself and not be concerned if I fall down. My family is taking turns
helping me work out at the Y.
I expect to be able to be able to walk alone by the end of the summer.

Aqua program is the best! Levels for everyone….keep adding challenging classes. Attendance at these classes shows how much they are valued.
Sidney loved her Cheer Camp. They staff was so attentive and wonderful to her, and all the kids. She was so excited to go in the morning. Thank you so much for giving Sidney such an enjoyable experience!!
It's just such a beautifully happy place to be. From the youngest to the oldest, they are all happily at the YMCA. Learning, working, playing, swimming, dancing, acting, singing, supporting, encouraging, caring, and even loving happens at this beautiful building every single day! What's not to recommend? It's just the nicest place to get healthy!
Best of local gyms.
Fun and flexible and free
lots of variety, great classes, friendly staff, clean new facilities.
Kids had a lot of fun. Lots of great activities (swimming, smores, arts and crafts, etc). But it also felt nice and low-key as far as just dropping off the kids and letting them have fun!
