Wonderful teachers
Love the Stay Fit class. We have different instructors who focus on balance and mobility which certainly works.. Diitto also with the pool exercises. Reuben, who is our instructor is excellent. Since I've been in his class, my balance has improved a lot and I feel so energized doing the exercises. Reuben makes the class fun for us alll. I'm sure I speak for all when I say it is our 'Happy Place."

We have had a consistently great experience with both of our children!
Jack was an amazing instructor! Great at drawing the kids in and getting them to participate.
Friendly and inclusive
Many choices of activities and many times to choose from.
Great instructors and very accommodating and helpful staff!
The water aerobics class is a wonderful way to exercise because of the enthusiasm of the instructor, the welcoming attitude of the other clients, and the music. It is a fun way to get exercise.
I have not been coming recently because I broke my wrist. When I am able, I would like to come back.
Nicole has a pleasant personality. Very knowledgeable and able to share and demonstrate the fine points of specific exercises with class. Was able to adapt exercises to individual needs
While getting the desired results.
Enjoyed the class. Thank you Nicole
Great instructor, friendly atmosphere
The place opens early! A variety of classes and times.
Coach Alex is a miracle worker with kids
The toddler/ parent class was great! Our son loved going with his dad every week and after two sessions was really starting to get it! We will define be signing him up for more in the future
Times match with my schedule to taking a variety of classes
It was fun and affordable! I liked that the duration of the swim lesson.
Staffs are nice and they tell kids what they are doing wrong in swimming and help them on it. But I am disappointed that they don't keep any Youth Swim Stage 6 on weekends. It is so difficult for us to do it on the weekdays even when I requested and explained the situation.
Trey is great!
Good instructors and fun activities
I like the Aquatic Stretch because it's just the right level of activity that I need. The teacher is great and all the participants are friendly and enthusiastic.
I also work out in the gym with the treadmill and bike. I always find the equipment I need and if I have a problem; a Y staff member is available to help me.
I like the overall ease of signing up for classes and the level of challenge they provide.
Small class size, kids had easy time engaging, instructor met each of my child at their comfort zone
Martha M who does the stay fit and zumba classes on Mondays and stay fit on Wed and Fridays at the Saugus Y is fantastic. She is full of energy; personable and her exercises are just great!! I love going to her classes and enjoy myself too!

very friendly atmosphere
The staff and members
The yoga classes (chair and Matt). And, the fitness center.
Please consider using the metal chairs in the chair yoga classes. The plastic chairs are unstable and move around too much.
Also, please consider putting a paper towel dispenser in the women’s room in the fitness center. Or, get a better hand dryer.
Programs and activities are N.A. for me. But.......
Love the Melrose Y for it's staff and scheduling esp. lap pool time. The locker room, men's toilets and showers are well maintained and cleaned. Have not found a soap less shower for many months. Please pass on thanks to the worker (s) and managers. Love the flexibility to use the other 3 Y's, Use Saugus and Peabody.
I enjoy the variety and quality of your activities.
Excellent staff, selection of equipment and well maintained facility.
