I love the classes. I find that I get a real workout in them. Nasheed and Julia are wonderful at conducting them too. They show a real interest in everyone and want us to get the most from each session so they make the classes fun.

Friendly, welcoming atmosphere to newcomers and those new to exercise.

Really like the Sunday Zumba class, chair yoga, and the child care

staff is so kind and helpful

The place is too small and packed especially cost the cost that is charged. We took the membership especially for kids' swimming but there is very limited availability for kids to swim through the week and when there is availability, it is packed, leaving no place for kids to actually learn swimming

Everyone is friendly, it is clean and very comfortable.

The biggest problem is the poor communication regarding the swimming schedule and pool occupancy. You can arrive expecting to swim, only to find that the pool is full, and this information is not available on the website.

I love the friends I’ve made and the classes! Super instructors!

You can follow up more with new members explaining how they can utilize the YMCA’s.Because now I’m utilizing 4 different locations in the metro area and my family is benefiting well.

Friendly people, fun/challenging fitness classes, lots of activities, childcare on site

I like the group fitness classes and I’m looking forward to the new building being finished

Extremely friendly front end staff, great instructors,

This facility has a variety of programs that is versatile. The staff is exceptional and professional. There is no doubt that the Y is committed to helping me achieve my fitness goals.

I would like to thank the West Essex YMCA aquatics team for the excellent experience we've had so far.

Antonio was extremely helpful in getting my daughters onto the private lesson list and matching them with instructors who fit their needs. He made the entire process smooth and easy for our family.

A special thank you as well to Erika M. and Greg S. They have both been fantastic instructors. They are patient, encouraging, and knowledgeable, and have been doing a great job helping my daughters improve their swimming technique and confidence in the water. We've already seen positive progress thanks to their guidance.

We truly appreciate the support and professionalism of the entire team and highly recommend the West Essex YMCA swim program.

Always friendly , helpful and very very clean !

I have had good experiences at this facilty. I enjoy the classes and instrutors. Also the front desk staff are extremely helpful.

Need clean steam room, people use strong smelling soaps, creams in the steam room.
Steam enhances the smell of them which is unbearable.

(1) Classes can't be rescheduled. (2) Not enough Classes on weekends for working parents. (3) Not enough outreach for inclusion classes to support kids on the spectrum (4) Teachers not trained on neurodiversity to support kids who are borderline on spectrum

They helped my parents during this hard time

My trainer works with me and my needs. He acquaints me with applicable machines and exceercises

The people who work there are very nice and the facility is clean but current facility doesn't meet the standard for the area- looking forward to the new facility.

The staff is helpful and professional . The classes have wonderful teachers when a consistent following !!

Great program offerings, weight room and cardio room

I would like to see more classes in the early morning once the gym

I mostly use the pool for classes? Need more variety. Also front desk staff is often unhelpful
, I have a credit for have people that have joined the Y . I have requested in writing (3 times)
for this to be credited to my monthly membership fee. Nothing. They seemed annoyed that I ask.
