Member Testimonials
Teachers are excellent!
I only use the fitness center
The exercises for older adults is great.
Variety of classes, friendly staff, new spacious excercise space on the second floorwith daylight.
I think the classes at the Y are top notch. I especially love the chair yoga class and wish there were more of them and the senior fit class run by Kay she is phenomenal. I’ve been a member of the Y in Melrose on and off since 1988. What a great place to work out
Good schedule, flexible time, cheap fee...nice room, a lot equipment, everyone friendly.
There is great variety and you’re free to work with your own schedule.
Very clean
I love the warm and friendly environment. The attitude that everyone deserves to be in the gym at any level. I love training with Paul.
I think the staff are professional and helpful when needed and I k.ow Kay's class is the best
Good Facilities, great staff, good sense of community
It is just such a friendly welcoming environment!
The fitness room is convenient, spacious, clean and well maintained. I don’t use it for socialization but occasionally I run into people I know. My wife uses the fitness center and since she’s more social than I , she’s always chatting with friends from town. It’s a resource that serves the community.
Welcoming attitude
Teachers are excellent & very attuned to individual needs.
Good programs friendly people
I was a member and family member from 1Phone number removed. I coached Y basketball for 13 years. At one time way back I got a charitable donation for the special needs gym. Assume there is special equipment still there for the mobility challenged. We left to go to Ballys for more lap swim time and when they closed to La Fitness till the pandemic.
After putting on a lot of weight and only golfing and short walks for exercise I decided to check the Y again and with the flexible pay (we go away for 6+ weeks in the winter) and golf spring to fall. This payment plan is much more attractive.
Love the updates i.e. shower stalls, cleanliness, elevator, modern equipment, and sauna. So far the staff is much more customer friendly, but it was never horrible just not as professional. The 2 women who gave me the low down and added my info to the roles were wonderful. The senior woman was in training. When I joined Seavy was outstanding.
So far, the mid-day lap swim has been fine for me though Monday of this week some of the folks were not lap swimmers. I have used the exercise bikes here and at Saugus and have been pleased. Saugus also has very friendly and profession staff members.
Walkable from my house.

I tried my first 2 mat Pilates classes this month with Cynthia Berger and love it.
The classes are generally really good. I like the flexibility of going to different facilities.
My daughter and I have a great time!
Fitness center staff are friendly and helpful.
The newly renovated gym is clean and well equipped. Plenty of open swim time and the new sauna next to the pool is great for cool down and relaxation. Yoga classes are really great. So many of them, always well attended, and great instructors! I've met a great pickleball group that have taught me the game in the gym. I'm hooked! I'm impressed with how clean and well run the entire facility is. Folks definitely take pride in their Y. Finally, it is a great value given all the activities that you have access to. Something different to do every day!
We love the Keep Fit class
