Beautiful facility - good classes. We just need more pickleball and mirrors in the Pilates studio.

The Y is a great facility, a much needed improvement over the old Y downtown. One request- we have asked before if the spin class that is scheduled at the same time as Restorative Yoga at 9 on Mondays and Friday’s could be rescheduled for perhaps an hour later. The noise from the spin class is entirely disruptive to the tone of the yoga class. This would be a simple fix. Thank you.

Nice

I can’t say enough good things about Heidi and the work she does. It’s amazing how she brings out the best in the kids, juggling so many different personalities and still putting on shows that are genuinely fun to watch. So far, Aurora's been in 3 Holiday Delights performances and 3summer theater camps, and every time she grows more confident and excited about performing.

Honestly, we were a bit disappointed to learn that the summer camp is being moved to the Rockport T.C. this year. The Y’s location is not only more convenient for us, but the facility itself feels like such a big part of the program’s success. I’ve always loved seeing members walk by the rec room and stop to watch the kids rehearse—it creates this wonderful sense of pride and community. I’ve even heard members say they were buying tickets to the show just because they’d seen the kids practicing!

Theater has been such a bright spot for Aurora, and I can’t imagine what we’d do without it. I hope the program continues to be supported—

I've answered this survey previously, and I don't participate in social media.

Very clean & many classes to sign up for.

Front desk people are extremely pleasant and helpful. My grandchild has been taking group swimming lessons. The staff is amazing. Both in their skills and abilities to relate to young children. I feel my granddaughter has made great progress and loves going to swim lessons!

the people who work there are very nice and friendly, it is very clean, the treadmills have a high turnover rate.

The Gloucester Y is a very welcoming place. The facility is clean, staff is friendly and always bustling but not over crowded. So many classes and activities to choose from.

Nice looking place, easy location, weight exercise room is more spacious than the marblehead Y.
Free EV charging is a huge plus!

The Y is an affordable way to get and stay active, and is also a source of community-building and doing good for Cape Ann. I appreciate that I can either exercise on my own or sign up for a group class to help motivate me. Everyone on the staff at the Y that I've encountered so far has been kind and helpful, and it's such a beautiful facility to have so close to home. I grew up having birthday parties at the old Y by the Gloucester Library and being able to come to the shiny new Y as an adult has really been a wonderful experience for me.

Love the facility, most of the classes and instructors, convenience, cleanliness.

Clean and friendly

Love Cookie’s chair yoga class!!

It's clean,open & bright. Plenty of cardio machines.

At the Y in Gloucester, the people who work there are great. It is always busy, but I never have to wait for a cardio machine. Everything is clean. There are a lot of classes. As a former Water Safety Instructor, I appreciate the professionalism of the pool area. Parking is easy in the large lot.
