Love it! Staff is amazing
The staff is very friendly! The pool is very clean and well maintained. The women’s locker room is always being cleaned when I am there! Love the sauna and steam rooms! Only negative, need more showers and benches to sit on when dressing although space is limited.
Decent clean environments
This YMCA has a very welcoming community. The fitness classes are professional and are great in helping me achieve my fitness goals. Staff is very approachable, knowledgeable, and eager to help. There is a broad range of opportunities to meet your individual needs. Help and support is always available. Left my old gym and never looked back. I’ve been a member over two years.
I like the classes and every instructor and staff member that we come in contact with is very friendly.
Our swim instructor, Kara. She’s personable, professional and knowledgeable. She took my daughter from being afraid of water to jumping in on the deep end within a few months.
I like the warm and friendly atmosphere from staff at the front desk when I enter the Y. This extends to other staff members as well. I have found the staff to be very responsive to questions and will follow-up if any issues or concerns arise. I love the water aerobics classes as well as yoga and balance and stability classes. The instructors are experienced professionals who provide excellent and fun classes. The Y stimulates both my body and mind, a sense of community and my physical well-being.
The West Essex Y is my "home away from home"!!
My 4-year-old daughter has taken swim lessons at three other locations and never really wanted to go. Mr. Unique and Miss Erika are the only instructors she’s had who she truly looks forward to seeing. Thanks to them, she’s more confident in the water and is finally making real improvements. We couldn’t be happier.
Coach James has been a wonderful force in creating a cohesive team that our kids want to participate in, and they've learned to work hard and have fun. Our family is thankful to have him at the head of the swim team.
The staff is friendly and helpful. The place is kept very clean. The classes are varied and the teachers are so good.
I'm very pleased with this Y
It was a wonderful session
Great experience! Swim teacher Beth is very attentive and Emma felt immediately comfortable with her.
I’m satisfied with the service and the communication is great!
Help kids even when they’re falling behind
My son loves his swim lessons with Mr unique and miss Kelly. They go above and beyond making each child feel safe and special while teaching valuable water skills
My kids enjoy coming to swimming lessons. Their instructors are knowledgeable and helpful. The pool is always clean.
Good, I recommend it for you
The staff and coordinators
Mr Unique and Eric are excellent instructors that keep kids engaged and make lessons fun while learning! Especially love the relays and friendy competition that Mr. Unique weaves into level 6 classes
I appreciated one on one attention my daughter got , and positive reinforcement to swim
What I like about my family’s West Essex YMCA Aquatics experience is this: the water is clean and kept at a comfortable temperature. The swim lessons for all my children have helped them enjoy the pool more safely as their swimming skills improve. And the aquatics staff are always wonderful to engage with for all things aquatic.
The staff is amazing, they are helping my son to be a good swimmer!
The coaches are very good, the students enjoy and learn together.
Our instructor, Kara. She provides a safe, encouraging environment with my daughter that allows her to gain confidence with water.
Great program and staff. My kids loved it!
My son looked forward to camp every day. There were lots of fun activities, and many staff knew him by name. Great experience!
It's not a matter of would I recommend because I already do recommend. The program is organized and excellent the instructors are engaging and the instruction is valuable. My 2 daughters have been moving up through the program and they are progressing so well. The past year it has especially improved with the new management. I am very pleased. I look forward to signing up for next year in the next couple of weeks.
My daughter told me that she loves going to afterschool. I am glad to know that, she has the opportunity to do more activities and complete homework and socializing more.
