Member Testimonials
Good facilities - women's locker room was bright, large and renovated. Family changing room was dark. Great pool, good hours.
My instructor, Lynn was fantastic. My goals were to learn how to breathe by blowing bubbles, tread water(afraid of deep water), swim laps and float on my back.
Goals met and more.
Claire was so patient and effective!
Hours & equipment
First & foremost, the people that work at the Y-from the front desk who never fail to greet you with a smile when you come in to the class instructors who are knowledgeable and make the classes interesting and fun.
In the list of classes offered, almost everyone can find one-or more-that's compatible with their interests and physical capability from newbie to advanced,
So, check out the Y, give it a try! I think you'll pleasantly surprised.

Location atmosphere cleanliness programs🤓 I have one complaint unfortunately those who were instructors ie yoga etc who started working and had great classes prior to the pandemic weren’t called back!! Why?!!! RSJ
Just about everthing I use is there and the people are pleasant. I'm also grateful that there isn't any music blasting from the Y's speakers. I can listen to my earbuds. I assume that talking on cell phone is not allowed, although not everyone adheres to that.
I only use the pool and locker rooms. Well managed and clean.
The pool, the locker room and the friendly staff

I love the Montclair Ymca. The facilities and prices are great. I use my membership primarily for yoga classes and am pleased with the variety of classes offered.

Great coach
The Instructors are why the class was great. I struggle with swimming and have a fear of water but they were patient and taught us useful skills. Going to the deep end was scary but practicing was helpful. The instructors were encouraging. As the lessons came closer to the end, the class was able to divide from swimmers who were doing well and swimmers who needed more help with technique. This was great because it allowed us all to keep up with colleagues in our skill level. I would strongly recommend because of the instructors.
The progressive teachings. The end of period evaluations. I’m so happy to see my daughter taken by it and focused on learning. Kudos to teachers
It’s affordable, the staffs are polite etc
Great swim pool 🏊…
Choice of classes, exercise machines
The swim instructors are polite, respectful and very knowledgeable.
Everyone was friendly and helpful. The noticed when we needed a hand and were there to assist. What a wonderful surprise to discover that our United Health care covers the cost of our membership so we can enjoy classes without worrying about dues. We are really liking the Adaptive Exercise class and John's Senior Strength session. Thanks to everyone!

Giving back to the community
Our 2 daughters have had lessons w/ Justin & Vanese over the last 2 years. They were both wonderful and we've had an amazing experience. Vanese in particular has made a tremendous impact on their progress and they love working with her -- they look forward to Friday night swimming!
Thanks for doing a great job hiring fun, professional, talented swim instructors -- we appreciate it.
