Clean with good equipment and availability. Friendly staff.
Some of the programs I have attended turned out to be a sales pitch and the information given was lacking. The presenters often lack good credentials and credibility on the information given. After attending most workshops given by the Somerset Hills YMCA I felt like it was a waste of my time. I do appreciate the Y's efforts for the daily classes, the facility and the people who work there. The Y is a good as it gets. The classes are pretty good, the facility is good and looks good, the people who work there are welcoming and caring. I haven't had much luck with the program presentations we have had.
The SH YMCA creates a community of great people who both work there and who are members.
Excellent and knowledgeable Personal trainers (Liz & Sarah)
membership is very expensive. YMCA should offer more & better discounts.
Love the people who work at the Y. They are knowledgeable, helpful, & enthusiastic! Everyone I’ve met who works out has been friendly; a great group of people!
You're doing great! I love the Y programs. But given that I have not made any such recommendations in the last 5 years, the likelihood that I will make such a recommendation in the future is extremely low. Maybe you should reframe your question.
Clean environment and many things to choose from.
The lecture today on Brain health and eating the right foods was so informative! Very motivating to hear from Dr. Coffin and I can now make better decisions with the foods I eat to help keep good brain health. Fantastic program!
Did the Pilates reformer demo with Lisa- she was great.
The people are great. The programs are so good.
Would love to see Engelhart open before 6 at least a couple more days.
The entire facility is exceptional relative to other Y’s. It’s clean, large, and well lit by natural light.
Great staff, excellent programs, top-notch equipment, and plenty of free parking.
It was a big liability to have a NON-professional speak to a group of troubled members: depression, un-employement and some medical issues were shared. The speaker presented to be a 'therapist'. She is licensed ZERO.
Many activities and probably something for everybody.
Classes and multiple times of day to meet most schedules
Well constructed
Some lf thr ellipticals need tightening and the TV does not work on some screens.
great instructors, wonderful staff, excellent classes, equipment is top notch.
Mine and my co-participant team mates experiences owe gratitude to the Staff and Training Department for their dedication and extreme care and guidance they provide. I am humbled to be a part of this organization and sincerely appreciate y'all!
Shout out to Marylyn, Karen, Liz, Tracey and Lisa - "Semper Paratus"
p.s. Keep the Faith
The staff are very friendly, the group classes are abundant and phenomenal, the facilities are very clean. It's a very positive space!
I like the AOA classes for seniors. My only complaint is tha I wish that there were more classes. They are often completely subscribed with a full waitlist as well.
Should have some functional (e.g., box jump) classes.
Helpful staff, great equipment ( I Love the German ten equipment!)
Great facility! But I often need to tell the front desk that the upstairs women’s bathroom is out of towels, so that bathroom doesn’t seem to get checked often.
And the front desk should be reminding every member that comes in in the evening of the times they close because I often find members asking or do not know.
Love the AOA classes. Except that for many of them, if you don’t sign up within 24 hours after the prior class, it is full. You need more of them.
Variety of programs, friendly, encouraging, caring and knowledgeable instructors!
The YMCA is a great place with excellent facilities and equipment, but a common issue is members using phones on the wellness center - on calls or checking emails, texts, and websites - while occupying machines. A designated phone area would help improve gym etiquette and efficiency. Also members should be reminded of the rules.
Cardio equipment needs to be updated so that new air pods can connect with ease
The staff is courageous, the place is beautiful and the equipment is always in excellent condition. I specifically enjoy the set up of the EG and the fact that I don’t need to do any adjustments to my exercise routine.
Wellness staff (Nimika & Kevin) share their knowledge & are encouraging. They inspire & motivate me to meet my health goals. (Attendee of wellness group led by Nimika and In-Body Scale assessment was performed by Kevin).
The Y is about as family friendly as it can be.
Relevant to daily life.
The presenter was very knowledgeable and easy to listen to. The audience shared information on the topic about themselves, which was also helpful.
You always learn something from these presentations.
facility is clean, updated. Staffs are warm and helpful. Classes attended (Water exercises ) are functional and helpful.
Outstanding classes and teachers. Really care about you. Front desk always friendly. And the y is always collecting food, sneakers, coats, always thinking of people nice z
The staff is amazing, not only are they kind but are always knowledgeable and helpful.
I just joined, although Ive been a member in the past. I now noticed it difficult to find workout center staff for questions. Cardio machines can be confusing and frustrating to use.
Staff very friendly and informative. Equipment and program offerings are excellent.
The staff was quick to respond to my questions and followed up with fitting me with a trainer for my available times
The Y has some very caring and competent instructors. I have made mant friends at the Y.
The facility is updated, clean, comfortable and offers a variety for all.
The staff could not be more professional and personable.
The members are family oriented, friendly and are all happy to be there:)
I'm glad to see the implementation of the AOA position, led by Marilyn Esposito.
Pool time is not only good exercise, it is also a social outlet!
Excellent facility with wide variety of exercise options. Highly recommend Mason's weekly hiking class - outstanding!
Very nice facility- equipment in good shape.
It's an Amazing community, I have lots of friends, really great activities, health minded friends and professionals... so fun and mentally supportive !
Nothing. Not sure if I recommend someone if they may be interested as they my have other programs.
Staff member was helpful, efficient and pleasant to talk with.
