This YMCA is the real deal. It's inspiring to see how much it's grown and how deeply it continues to invest in the well-being of our community. Thank you for creating such a positive, uplifting environment! The new EGYM is an amazing addition -- a smart, adaptive fitness system that automatically adjusts to your height, weight, and strength for a complete full-body workout in just 22 minutes. I tried it last night, got my band, and can't wait to go back this morning! It's a total game-changer and I'm excited to make it part of my regular routine. A huge thank-you to Erina McWilliam-Lopez, Executive Director, the Board of Trustees and Mr. MacLeod for your leadership and vision -- and to every single staff member at the Y for making it such a welcoming and encouraging space. This YMCA has truly made a difference in my life, and I'm so appreciative of all that you do!

I cannot recommend Allied Strength highly enough! Our son badly injured his knee last autumn. After…read more8 weeks, he was discharged from medical care and physical therapy.

He's also learned a great deal about injury prevention for the future. Go. Take your kids. Take yourself. Just go. You won't be sorry!

Gloucester is incredibly lucky to have such a gifted, talented, passionate, and dedicated teacher to call its own. In addition to her extensive dance and movement training, Sarah is a skilled teacher who works with each student on technique, style, and personal somatic issues. I have noticed a huge difference not only in my technique, but also in my body alignment and posture. This is a bonus I didn't expect, as is the studio's magical and glorious space, complete with a heavenly domed ceiling and gorgeous views of Gloucester Harbor. Treat yourself to one or more of the varied classes offered at MAGMA - you and your body will thank you. June W. Rockport

The studio was easy to find, the woman at the check-in desk was efficient and friendly at getting us signed up, and she even let us borrow two yoga mats for free which was much appreciated as we were traveling without our usual personal mats. The studio upstairs was quite hot (unintentionally, I believe) but Alli kept everyone motivated and present despite the heat. The studio is sizable and pretty with lots of assistive props to borrow. Alli's flow was really dynamic and challenging. I also am a yoga teacher, and I found myself enjoying her class a lot! Would definitely come back if we are in the area again!

The departure of loved tennis pros who once offered professional coaching and Manchester Prep School for high level tennis players has closed their doors.

However, I know I need yoga and had finally found an excellent studio in Central MA....and then moved to Gloucester. I tried another studio here and suffered from my usual yoga anxiety so thought I'd try Cape Ann Power Yoga. The name scared me a bit but the price was outstanding; $10 a class...no really, it's $10 a class. AND they have classes at 5:30 in the morning which is perfect for me. I've been three times and cannot recommend it highly enough. The instructors are welcoming, encouraging, and their cues are outstanding. It appears there are all levels in the class from folks like me to folks who are obviously very advanced in their skills. And these veterans, unlike accomplished yogi in some studios, are focused on their own practices, and waste no time judging others. I love it here; I actually like going to yoga class.
