Love many of the water aerobic classes but all the leaders are not equal. I want a workout when I go such as all of Mary Martel’s classes. Donna had really upped her classes and the sub on Thursday was wonderful! Others are also great but one her attitude and classes are really subpar.
Various sessions and small class sizes for babies
Positive and patient instructors; clean facility; well-organized
I like the yoga classes and exercise classes.
I like the programs especially the Water Aerobics and the people who lead them as well as the people who participate.
Most are friendly and will help you and become friends.
It works for me.
Love the times that you are open.
Love the gentle yoga
Trying to sign up for the Zumba Gold
I like the stay fit class and they only offer twice a week a late morning and a early morning. I wish there were early morning stay fit classes
Everything :-)
I love it,
variety, schedules, good instructors
Since we live in Lynnfield, this Y is very convenient. They have great programs for the kids (swimming, camps, etc.) and the family membership is well priced. It is also great that we can use other Y's if we see another program we're interested in or if it is closer to work.
I only swim, but it is very nice. The people are friendly. They have many activities, including pickelball.
Great classes, great facility and hot tub is a huge bonus!!!
The environment instructors and variety
My instructor , the many friends I have made during my 9 years of membership. I have moved to Billerica 6 yea s ago and I still go to Peabody 3 times a week . I wouldn’t go anywhere else . Management is very social, the girls at the front desk are Pleasant and very informative. .
So that is y I go to the Peabody YMCA ..
The barre and Pilates class on Saturdays at 7:15- forget her name. She is amazing. Welcoming staff at the front desk. Clean locker room and sauna (although a bit small).
There are some very good choices. I live much closer to another YMCA, but have stayed with the Torigian because of the good vibe there.
We can go to multiple YMCA
Swimming pool and kids programs
Love the fitness classes-barre, Pilates, yoga flow…. Marissa, Kate, Stacey, and Connie are positive, knowledgeable, supportive instructors.
