Powered by GoogleThis Y location has been here for decades and through all that time, it has remained such a wonderful place and asset to the local community! Great programs for kids and adults. Everyone who works there is helpful and friendly.
The swimming schedule with Y Ridgewood over the weekend isn’t reliable at all nowadays. Lots of swim met are scheduled over weekend leaving members no time slot to swim at all in an entire day! I am a paid member for many years. It has never been this bad. Unfortunately, this is forcing members to choose a different place!
Absolutely love the Ridgewood Ymca. The staff and instructors are amazing. Coming here change my life and perception of exercise. I take swim classes everyday and all of the swim instructors are hands down the best! I also love how my family and I can exercise all together.
I absolutely love the Ridgewood YMCA! The variety of programs they offer—especially the inclusive ones—truly sets them apart. The staff is incredibly helpful, warm, and genuinely cares about the members and the broader community. Their workout classes and personal trainers are top-notch, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. It’s more than just a gym—it’s a community hub that uplifts and supports everyone.
The Y is absolutely amazing! My son started swim lessons in May and he has been coming once per week since then. All of their programs are incredible, but I can’t say enough about the swim program! Mr. Nick, his swim teacher has not only taught him how to fully swim at the age of three years old, but also has inspired him so much. Every day he asks if he is going to see Mr. Nick. He also does the summer camp, which he absolutely loves, and he asks to go back to every single day! Additionally, every person that works at the Y is welcoming, accommodating, helpful, and resourceful! Ridgewood is an amazing community but the Y really sets it self above and beyond expectations!
