Member Testimonials
We love the child watch, especially the dedicated staff. I wish they had it available monday through friday in the morning not just monday to wednesday. I also wish the gym bought hip thruster machines designed for shorter women. Love the cleanliness of the facility and the friendly staff in general.
I participate in Senior fitness classes Mon,Wed, Friday. I wish there was a weekend class too.
I have also gone to classes in Melrose and enjoy the ability to go to other Y facilities.
I appreciate that the facility is generally kept very clean and always friendly.
These days I just use the pool.
Been absent for a long time and moving back slowly. Doing slow and varied stroke laps and just floating..wonderful.
The life guards are helpful with information on classes and turning down the music when asked. I like the varied designation of the lanes. The kid play time and splash pad look and sound wonderfully enjoyed!
Facility and staff are great
It would be helpful to have some written instructions on managing the water temperature in the showers and how to make sure it is turned off.
All in all I’m glad I’m back.
Thanks
My son feels very happy and the teacher who gives them soccer classes is very friendly and has a lot of patience.
Demakes YMCA is a thriving lively community space supporting not just fitness, but also social connection, health education and greater well-being. I enjoy many classes, some of the equipment and the lap pool.
Lots of options for days and hours
Different options, however, more options and times definitely need to be added.
I haven't done any. I just use the weight room. I like how much space there is in between machines, the y isn't as crowded as other commercial gyms, and most of the equipment is good
Lots to do for all ages
Everything , there’s everything you need . The facility is immaculate . The men’s dressing room is spotless .
Free programs and activities and feeling welcome with the morning staffs they’re great
My son attends the Lil Ninja class on Saturdays with Jordan and he loves it! Jordan is great with the kids and teaches them so much!
There are lots of programs to pick by also facility is very clean.
The quality of the teachers is amazing!!! I also appreciate the variation in class types. I do wish there was a women’s only weight area- but that is my own issue to deal with!
Totally love Maggie's water fitness class! No other teacher compares to her. You are super lucky to have her! Very large space for body weight exercises and plenty of exercise machines. Lifeguards are always focused and demonstrate professionalism by not getting distracted. Environment is clean. Staff is friendly and helpful.
I have visited the Demakes YMCA during each of my three summer visits to Lynn. All staff members have been welcoming, courteous, and professional. The gym is clean and bright. I have never had difficulty using the equipment. Thank you for offering a great deal during my most recent two-week stay. I look forward to returning to the Demakes YMCA next summer or sooner!
Thank you so much for the peace of mind! My 7 year old comes tired and entertained. I hear my child talking about the trips to the roof garden, going to ninja warrior obstacle course, playin basketball, etc. The staff knows all children by name. The camp director is very attentive to children's needs. I also like that breakfast and lunch is provided for free.
The camp keeps the kids active all day.

There are a lot of great classes, equipment is very good. Place is kept clean and staff is wonderful! My only frustration at this time is lack of snack/beverage bar. Not every Y has one but the set up is there and it would be great to have it!!
