Member Testimonials
We love the gym facilities, pool, the staff, kids programs, continual improvements, daycare, the cost, all of it. It’s a great place for kids to mingle with familiar faces as they learn and grow.

I love the Y!
The staff are phenomenal - so happy and upbeat. The classes are excellent workouts.
New fitness center
Kay’s classes and Pickleball classes
I mostly attend scheduled group classes, and the instructors are motivating, knowledgeable, and supportive. Moreover, I appreciate that the Y is a community-based organization that is inter-generational and supports the broader Melrose community.
the trainers for the group classes are all awesome!
Love the recent renovation and all the new equipment and layout.
Hi,
The pool the picklebal it’s all great.
I do have a suggestion to put padding on the walls in the gym to keep pickleball players who run back to the wall to hit the ball. Saugus YMCA has good pads on both ends. However melrose only has pads under the bball hoops.
And coach Jeff (pickleball class) is great!
Thanks!

Fantastic brand new Fitness Center on the second floor! Wicked friendly and helpful staff!
My two toddler girls had their first session of swim class at the Melrose Y and I am very pleased. Weve done a session at another Y location and I was not impressed with the lack of organization and efficientness of the swim lessons. Alessia has been great with my girls and there isn't a lot of waiting in between students for their turn. I also appreciate a role call and making sure they have the correct student. At the last Y experience they would just keep handing off kids to the swim instructor. Looking forward to signing up for the next session.
Looking into a child membership.
Roubins is amazing with the children and so patient! My son Cal loves him!
