Love the Y! The staff is so welcoming, the people are friendly. It’s a wonderful place to workout!
Love the classes and the instructors
I have had a great experience since joining the Ipswich Family YMCA within the last two years. I began with Fit for Life after a long period of little exercise. The instructors, especially Kerri O'Connor but also including Judy and on occasion, Patrick, have been really great. They are knowledgable, engaging and working for class members' success. I have since tried a few other classes and my wife and I joined the Fall beginner Pickleball league, which just concluded, and also played with people we met during open gym time. Overall, the Ipswich Y provides a warm, welcoming and supportive environment for all its members - from young families to older folks trying to stay healthy. That feeling is evident the moment Missy greets you at the door with a smile and a welcome. I highly recommend the Ipswich Family YMCA to anyone, of any age or interest level.
Clean, well maintained workout facilities, friendly people, good selection of fitness classes
Very clean and well-run facility.
Great family environment with friendly and accommodating staff!
Facility is clean, equipment is sufficient and the staff are super friendly
It is a great place to exercise and meet up with friends, or make friends. Front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. Most class instructors are very knowledgable in what they do.
Variety of classes, great instructors, and fun social vibe!
The services are complete and well delivered. I always feel welcome. That nourishes my physical and mental well-being.
I think custodians need to do a better job checking soap in the men's locker room showers. There have been times when weeks go by when there is no soap in the showers but other than that, I love the Ipswich Y. People are friendly and the facility is very well run.
Staff is helpful and facility is clean and well stocked with equipment
Great classes, great facility, friendly staff,
Excluding the new app (it’s not very good), the Ipswich/Rowley Y is excellent. The men’s locker room could use a rehab!
Friendly people, variety of exercise activities. Would like more pickleball gym time, perhaps Sunday afternoon.
Love the Zumba classes! All the teachers are great. Had a class with Lori and she was awesome as always.
It is a great place, where we can all exercise and we have been treated very well
We love that the Ipswich Y is convenient, welcoming and offers so many options for exercise. We have become regulars and we’re really enjoying our membership and our fitness level is much improved year round.
Chris Bevilacqua is the best.
Great facilities and community feeling
Blair is amazing with the kids during sports mania! We’re gonna do winter swimming but we hope to have Blair coach us again - she’s the best!
It's a warm and friendly place with lots of varied great activities all the time.
My daughter enjoyed it
Blair!! Give that woman a raise, she has the patience of a saint and is so good at her job.
