Member Testimonials
The pool is great
Connor is very happy to be playing with his friends and being cared for by people he knows and trusts. He feels like a rock star. We appreciate that camp offers extended hours (before and after care).
Kids are having a good time, love it when they come home talking about cooking clases and showing us the crafts they made at camp.
My child is happy!
Location is close to home and convenient. Most equipment are functional and maintained periodically. Plenty of classes. Nothing fancy bus lower cost.
Wonderfully friendly staff...fabulous water aerobics schedule---lots of programs to choose from---and lovely clientele.
Great senior classes.
My family and I have had only great experiences at the YMCA. We particularly love the Saturday morning swim sessions with Miss Lizzy. She is an exceptional instructor who always brings energy and enthusiasm to her classes. Her dedication and passion for teaching swimming have made our sessions truly enjoyable.
All the swim instructors at the YMCA are fantastic. They are professional, patient, and incredibly supportive, ensuring that every lesson is a positive experience. Thanks to them, swimming has become a wonderful and cherished activity for my daughters.
The YMCA provides a welcoming and safe environment, and we always look forward to our visits. We highly recommend the YMCA to anyone looking for quality swim instruction and a positive community experience.
I love my classes with nasheed and I love the staff. So friendly and helpful
The group fitness classes, especially in the morning. The instructors, all talented teachers, are personable and helpful.

Clean and friendly, efficient and considerate.
I find the early afternoons atmosphere comfortable.
The West Essex YMCA exceeded my expectations. Every day is a new invigorating experience. I walked into the Y unsure and self conscious. This amazing staff has helped and encouraged me to feel and do better every time I come. I utilize many different areas of the facility, and every area is a positive experience. Thank you!
Proximity to home; array of weight, aerobic, and exercise machines; friendly and helpful staff; good parking; nice selection of classes in person and online
Senior group trainer is awesome
Daily pool time and swim lessons
My son is loving swimming every day and the dodge ball type games the most. Also the freedom to follow an interest like he and a friend have been finding rocks and brought a brush and magnifying glass from home to look at the rocks he finds. The lunches I’ve been ordering have been great.
The different activities planned. Outdoor and indoor activities. The trips and pizza Friday’s. Daily swimming so much fun!
Very well organized and attentive to children.
My kids have so much fun here ! I’ve already recommended it to others
Great activity for the summer, trips weekly, daily swimming. My kids love it and so do I.
We love the Y!!
Rebecca and Valentina are having a blast!!
How excited my son is every morning to attend. He loves Pioneer Trails. As a working parent, knowing that my child is having an amazing summer alleviates all concerns for me. We LOVE Pioneer Trails!
Great!
Nice staff, affordable. Payment plan.
West Essex YMCA has been my go to exercise home for over 40 years. I have friends who were exercising when I started and are still there. In fact, many of us look forward to seeing each other in our now Senior Classes! That is part of what keeps us coming because not only is the Y our home for keeping ourselves physically strong and healthy, it's also a place where friendships are made and last.
And what a pleasant greeting we receive when we walk in the door and check in. We are always greeted with a "Good Morning" and a big smile. For those of us who live alone due to the loss of a spouse, that greeting is a great way to feel welcome and begin our day!
