Member Testimonials
It’s clean, well-staffed and accommodates the whole family.
I like the exercise classes and sign up for several every week. I enjoy all the instructors and their leadership. The classes always start on time and I have had great experiences and made many new friends.
The only negative I would add is that the weight classes are always over crowded. I believe there are members not signing up and coming anyway.
Classes are very professional.
Clean, well-maintained. Friendly and helpful staff
With the increased membership, more class offerings are needed. I often go to other YMCAs for classes as Kerr fills quickly or there is a wait list.
Friendly helpful people, quality equipment, clean environment.
Excellent place to go and meet new people and it's great for mature adult. Many different programs are available for all ages (including the very young to senior adults). They embace and recognize all major events that occurred in history and today. Very inclusive to different types of people. They also embace the teaching of caring and kindnes no matter what religion background you embace. A friendly staff, knowledgable and caring. They will listen to your suggestions and follow through if it's possible. Kerr YMCA is the place to be to stay active, knowledge and involved. I personally am impressed with there highly trained instructors. Julietha K., Phillip LW, (water fitnes) Kelly K (chair Yoga) Cuqui (Dance Zumba).. I am also impressed with their substitute teachers. Nothing but high praise for the staff.
I am a Happy member of Kerr YMCA--Patricia Glover
The variety of classes spread out over the day. And several instructors are exceptional. They remind members of proper form and offer modifications. Which are both extremely important to prevent injury and get the most of your work out.
Everyone is nice and very helpful.
I like a lot of things like, the people, the facility, the equipment. But I have a problem with the bikes and the treadmills. There is nothing on the tv to watch. I would like to watch some sports like college sports, golf etc. I don’t care to watch daytime tv shows or even the news. I would like to see additional programs on the bikes and treadmills.

Suggestion. PLEASE bring back back extension machine. Removed with no input. Many miss it. Nothing similar to it. Thank you.
Atmosphere, instructors. It would be great to have more 7am weekday classes at Kerr (not cycle).

The Kerr YMCA provides a community that is lacking in Wakefield. The facilities and class offerings are comparable to other facilities and of high quality.
