Member Testimonials
To begin with, a very welcoming and friendly staff. Everyone is helpful. The offerings are outstanding and plentiful with an array of options, times and variety of activities. The facility is immaculate, and the vibe is family oriented and courteous
Love the amount of group classes. Only thing that is annoying is the amount of pickleball. The baseketball court is already small and used often
I personally only attend the aquasize classes at night here. I have to travel 40 minutes from my home in Rowley because the Ipswich YMCA does not have water exercise night classes. I love theses classes, although it is quite far from my house. Jenny and Mary's water classes are fun and provide a total workout. But in all honesty, if they had classes in Ipswich, I would be not be attending this Y for any reason.
I love Women on weights with Noelle and Enhanced Fitness with Madison
Right now I am only doing the water aerobics classes 5 days a week.
The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Always willing to guide.
I enjoy the early morning classes before I go to work.
The variety of choices and the early time slots. I do wish you could add a country Line Dancing class, but otherwise I like all the classes that are offered. I also appreciate the cost has stayed affordable. Thank you!

Variety of programs. Great staff. Would be nice to have better water pressures in the Women’s showers and more full-length lockers. Metal ones would be best!!!
Staff have been very helpful in renewal if membership, answering questions and assisting in day passes for grandchild.
Physician Recommended I utilize bike and pool in preparation for joint surgery. Have found recombinant bike available except for one time at noon hour. Ladies locker room clean and pool staff helpful in describing open swim time and lane use.
Locker availability in main area could be better.
Would love gloves for handling equipment cleaning clothes and solutions - it’s a chemical exposure I’d rather not have. As a nurse who used these in hospitals, gloves would be recommended.
Overall needs are being met and I’m benefiting from membership.
the ymca is great
Everyone is very welcoming and the classes geared toward seniors are very good.
Clean facility, super friendly staff, and an amazing trainer (Ben is the best!).
The Y offers a variety of equipment and classes. I work with a trainer who guides me through the proper use of machines so I am then able to work out on my own. The classes, geared to senior citizens, serve that demographic well.
Great trainers. Good variety of classes and activities.
So diverse and the instructors are amazing
