South Shore YMCA Quincy

Large, clean facility with updated and expansive cardio, free weights areas, and gymnastics facility. The swim team is the top ranked Y in new england, competitive with much larger private clubs and has some of the best coaches in new england. Tons of parking too for being in the middle of urban Quincy.

Very negative experiences here, especially with one employee (initials M.M.). After a minor medical emergency/panic attack (which this employee insisted was a seizure but there was no medical evidence for), I was denied the ability to call my spouse who lives nearby for support and was forced to use an expensive private ambulance service that left me with a multi-thousand-dollar out of pocket bill. Was also told to “sit” during this incident as if I were a child or dog. Would not recommend the facility or its community/people.

Went there with my daughter. Made sure to call before hand to confirm that the pool was open and if visitor passes still work. Lo and behold reaching the reception to say that visitor passes are not allowed on Friday. We had come in our swimsuits and everything. Imagine telling your daughter you cannot swim and yet I did everything in my power to make sure we could swim that day by calling ahead. That was by far the worst experience I have had with any place.

So much variety of activities and classes. Very impressed with pool exercise classes, great variety and experienced instructors. Donna is the BEST. Her enthusiasm, professionalism, personality and expertise keeps me going! I have a bad hip and she has kept me moving!

High quality exercise classes with many opportunities to attend every day. I also very much appreciate the E-gym that makes strength training (weight machines) user friendly and personalized by setting up the machines to fit my size and poundage with a tap of my wrist band. Instructors and staff are also top notch. I have only positive things to comment on after 10 years of active membership.
