Member Testimonials
Great staff, variety of aqua, fitness and yoga classes for all abilities.
Outstanding facility, great programs and very supportive staff.
It's a great place (Gloucester) and well run, not to mention it is very reasonable. Keep up the good work.
staff and location
The programs and instructors are excellent! There is so much to choose from and various time slots to accommodate all. Everyone is very friendly (staff and patrons) and there is a community based atmosphere. We are so lucky to have the Cape Ann Y in our own backyard. I love this place and can’t get enough.
Excellent place, great yoga instructors (especially Jasmine Epstein!), great trainers (especially Jon Laurie!). Overall, clean, new facility with everything I appreciate in a gym -- free weights, machines, yoga & fitness classes (especially Kate Hamm!), steam room, ability to refill water bottles, generally friendly front reception staff -- good vibes throughout.
Thanks, everyone, for a great place to stay active! Robin
Huge variety of classes, well equipped gym, great staff, encouraging atmosphere.
Great place for my granddaughter to do activities and sports and meet new friends
It has a lot to offer for the whole family
Clean, neat facility. Spacious with ample styles of all workout equipment and braid spectrum of programs and activities.
I believe that the healthy environment at the Y is so beneficial to the wellbeing of all that attend.This positive clean environment would help anyone that is interested in pursuing a healthy lifestyle. Surrounding yourself with people with the same mindset has added benefits.
Everyone is very nice and helpful
There are lots of aqua fitness programs, which I love. The instructors and staff are friendly & knowledgeable & the facility is very nice. I also like that they do community support, like supporting the Open Door Food Pantry & having the donation Christmas tree.
Great gym. I especially like the mind body studio and classes
It's a beautiful facility. Very clean. Though the signal capability on the Treadmills is a constant issue. Most days, I have to go to at least 2 machines to find one that has a tv signal. In addition, WBZs audio is always low even on the highest volume setting. I hope these issues can be resolved. Also, would recommend getting at least one more recumbent bikes.
Beautiful facility, great staff & teachers (especially Jasmine Epstein), clean, bright & healthy! Thank you!
Great facility overall. Reasonable rates.
I do think improvements to the locker room would be welcome. There aren’t enough benches to place bags and the floor is always wet.
The lockers are kind of a poor plan. The top ones are so high you can’t reach the hooks unless you are over 6’ tall.
10/10
The place is spotless. There is a wide variety of classes. The exercise and weight machines are of high-quality and entertaining. The staff is very welcoming.
beautiful new building, new and clean equipment, endless class options, some great instructors, nice staff and great community, affordable, I am so grateful for the YMCA!
I think that the offerings for the membership price can’t be beat and everyone I have encountered at the Y thus far has been super friendly and kind and it is clean and I’m happy!
Great setup - great people
It’s clean, new, and has programs for everyone!
I love the Gloucester Y and am there six days a week, swimming & working out on the weights and equipment. I’ve been a lap swimmer for decades, and this is the best pool that I’ve ever swum in. Everybody is very courteous and friendly in the pool is very, very clean and well taken care of. The exercise area is outstanding.
Also, there is plenty of parking and in these brutally cold days of winter that’s so important.
My only suggestion to make it even better would be to put the pool up 2°. There are a lot of senior citizens and it being that cold when you first go in is not heart healthy. Otherwise, I only have positive comments.
Facility is clean, diverse and the instructors are great
It’s clean and it offers a wide variety of classes.
Every person we have interacted with is friendly and welcoming. There is a wide selection of classes and excellent equipment. The building itself is clean, sunny (plenty of windows) and the pool is great.
Clean, friendly and lots to do
No matter what your age, the YMCA has something for you. It really is just the best place to be ❤️

The facility is beautiful and the instructors are great!
