Member Testimonials
Great facilities with a wide variety of equipment and a convenient location.
Nice, clean facility and helpful staff. Lots of activities to enjoy and participate in.
I've only been there a couple of times. The facility is nice and the people are friendly. It's in a convenient location for me.
Exercise is important and healthy.
The facility is nearly new, large and always clean. The gym has plenty of workout equipment and the staff is always friendly and helpful. I always enjoy going to my local YMCA!
Clean, friendly variety of programs
The variety of programming and facility offerings; the cleanliness and upkeep of the facilities; the professional, courteous and helpful staff; the skill and expertise of trainers and teachers; the magnificent pool! At the Sterling Center in particular, I appreciate the ongoing attention to facility upgrades, most recently the locker rooms and saunas. Also, I am grateful for the diversity of staff and members, the thoughtful services offered to folks of all ages, from infancy to seniors, and to folks of diverse abilities. The Sterling Center is a stellar community organization that serves folks in Essex County very well.
People are very friendly and the quality of instruction is high.
It’s truly the embodiment of community and in this day and age of deep polarization really value this.
The Gloucester Y is Vibrant! What an amazing upgrade to the previous Y in Gloucester. Enjoyed the mix of different classes in the morning that allowed a well balanced workout curriculum through out the week. The instructors are pleasant and motivating. The Strictly Strength class at 9:15 Wednesday and Friday led by Desta was exceptional. Desta has a great way of explaining the exercise, making sure you're using the right muscle group and challenging you when it is safe to do so. Her injection of levity and variety of music selection makes the class fly by. The Y is lucky to have Desta on their staff.
I totally enjoyed my summer at the Gloucester Y!
Very clean and kind staff
I LOVE the Y! The Y increases the quality of my life on Cape Ann significantly. I especially appreciate how I can use all of the Ys on the North Shore, but the Gloucester Y is my favorite. I appreciate your thoughtful fitness programming and the wide availability of lap swimming. Keep up the good work making this such a fine community resource!
Y is beautiful and offers a large variety of fitness classes, machines, etc. Clean, bright, staff is amazing.
Pool is fabulous.
HOWEVER......Womens locker room is tiny and only has 4 showers, which means there is a waiting line to take a shower some days.
**The cycle classes and other fitness classes get filled up very quickly, so the Y needs to simply ADD more of the classes so it will accommodate all members. Because the Y is getting people upset that they can't attend a class, just because they didn't sign up quick enough!
All you need to do is add a few more spin classes (like 8am, 9am 10am....then everyone would have a chance to come and be happy.
A great place with a selection of programs & classes for all age levels. Clean, modern and fantastic amenities.
Good people great place
