I was a member at the JCC for the required 6 months. I was interested in the morning group classes and some swimming lessons. I was very disappointed with the club. The classes are uninspired and taught almost exclusively by one instructor. Swim lessons were not offered at any normal times. The clientele that goes there doesn't seem very open to new people. I had very few people make an effort to speak with me. It was a disappointing experience from beginning to end.

I have been a member for many years. Still now I find it very pleasant to be part of it. Everyone is friendly. The place is very clean, great swimming pools. The whole building is beautiful, very relaxing atmosphere, other members are nice and friendly , who can ask for anything else.! Great place to be a part of .

I have been a member for 19 years and and while I admit the gym has seen better days...hey, the place is aging (the showers sometimes get really hot) and the locker rooms are too small and can get very crowded. I wish they would update their machines, perhaps renting them instead of buying them. I find the management inconsistent, but I have to point out certain employees. Downstairs, Vern and Mary are both pleasant and hardworking. Upstairs, David keeps an eye on the gym, cleans the machines and is quite helpful. Christine is very dedicated to the excellent swim program. And Alyssa does a good job and is very approachable.

New manager is not a good manager. Manager doesn't let anyone in there even tho we were invited to a party. Kicked us out with zero reasoning. To me that's disrespectful. Was so excited for this but she ruined everything.

The therapy pool here makes me think of the movie Cocoon.

My husband and I joined the JCC in 2020 when the pandemic meant we had more free time. What a fabulous place it is. Late in life this place has allowed me to become a lap swimmer and it has transformed my life. If the pool was heavily chlorined, like most pools, I wouldn't want to use it but the salt water means no burning eyes or green hair. The other facilities are perfect, the gym, the spa, steam room, etc. Great place to take the grandkids when they visit as there is a ping pong table and a basketball gym which they love. Welcoming staff. The members I interact with in the pool, locker room, spa, etc. are so friendly. I enjoy the community vibe that is such a big part of the place. When I am walking out to my car after each visit I find myself feeling grateful for the JCC.

I took a tour and used one of the 3 free passes they give you before you join. First of all, at 10 a.m. on a weekday the whole place was jam packed. I can't imagine what it must look like after work. I tried the indoor pool and it was stressful. A woman was giving swim lessons to babies in diapers. I'm from the era, like 10 years ago, when babies were not allowed in adult swimming pools, for obvious reasons. It was crowded and I kept twisting and turning to avoid bumping into people, and ended up pulling a muscle in my leg. The women's locker room doesn't have nice towels and it's crowded--at 10 a.m. It's very expensive and I wonder where the money is going.

Helpful, friendly staff who know the JCC very well (I.e. can answer all your questions). I use the pools mostly and can say the aquatics staff is great. Lifeguards are attentive and professional. Age of patrons ranges from babies to over 80s. The cafe has great pastries, sandwiches soup and snacks. The overall atmosphere is very welcoming.

They've brilliantly rearranged things so you can get a complete workout outdoors. On the grass surrounding the pool, there are about a half dozen shelters each with one piece of equipment on a platform--bike, recumbent bike, rower, bench and weights...they extended the roof to cover three elliptical trainers and a stretching area. So happy to be able to go outside this winter when COVID is expected to surgealong with flu and RSV.

This is more than just a gym, the people are amazing - staff, trainers, and members. Really welcoming. Facilitaties are clean and updated. The outdoor pool is the perfect temp for lap swimming, indoor pool is warm and inviting, therapeutic. Sauna and steam, even spa and massage.

Awesome gym, pool for swimmers, and fitness/wellness programs. And the overall vibe of the JCC, serving the broad community in so many ways, makes me proud to be a member there. If you are a gym rat, this is the place to go for a great workout, fitness staff, facilities, lap pool, etc.

The Marin JCC swim program is awesome! Both my 3 & 4 yr old taking group lessons there. The instructors are very experienced and great with young kids new to swimming and more experienced swimmers improving their skills as well. The pool is indoors so great for all seasons and heated to a very warm temp to make sure the littles don’t get cold! At another outdoor pool we tried previously, my little guy’s lips were blue by the end and he was complaining of being cold and we had to get him a wetsuit! I’ve seen incredible improvement in just a few lessons and we practice at home in our hot tub too. Really really pleased with the quality. We started w/ just 1 day/wk to try it out and now we’re doing 3 days and also getting adult lessons for our nanny! Very happy swimmers and will be doing lessons here for years to come! Thank you JCC swim program!
