Both my kids have been enrolled in a wide variety of classes since they opened in 2021 (jazz, tap, lyrical, hip hop, and acro so far) and the adult classes are a ton of fun with a great sense of community. Additionally, we've had wonderful experiences with birthday parties (both as hosts and guests) and the Dino Dance Camp over the summer. We are so lucky to have them in Skokie!

While I've had some great instructors, Frank has been the only one to help me make consistent improvements in my serves and backhands. He explains things in a way that really gets you to understand cause/effect of technique and offers very honest but encouraging feedback. Even while building foundations for good techniques, he also focuses on strategy. His other instructors, particularly during the summer, are also great. Definitely will continue with lessons!

It's really unfortunate that a community facility like McGaw doesn't offer senior programs through…read moreSilver Sneakers. The senior discount offered by McGaw is so minimal that membership is unaffordable for many on a fixed income. I find it disheartening that McGaw offers a larger discount to employees of its corporate partner members than it does to its local seniors. Other YMCAs in the Chicago metro area offer membership through the Silver Sneakers program. Plus, most nearby community fitness centers, including Morton Grove and Skokie, accept Silver Sneakers membership. Many seniors, including me, would absolutely join McGaw if they accepted Silver Sneakers, which would bring McGaw additional revenue while truly serving its community.

My daughter was given a choice of 3 of 6 activities for her 90 minute party ( no food portion for the party which was great with us due to covid). She picked trapeze, balance ball, and silks. The instructors were attentive, patient, encouraging and got all of our guests happily engaged. It was a fantastic party and I highly recommend this place as a birthday venue. If we lived closer we'd consider classes there as well!

This review is simply based on a tour, so please take this for what it is. The teachers and level…read moreof care seemed ok. Nothing struck me as particularly bad, but nothing really impressed me either. With that said, I was in complete awe when I saw how much they charge for infant care (even for those of us with memberships). I have toured literally every single daycare in Evanston and compared rates, and this one is either the most or second most expensive. For these rates I would expect exceptional care, better-than-average adult child ratios, and immaculate facilities, but that's really not the case. If you walk past their building you will see broken windows. Basically this is a pretty average daycare for above-average rates. I really wanted to like this daycare because of its convenience, but unfortunately the cost was enough to drive my family away.

It has been such a great time. Forget about your visions of country music in a barn. It is fun, fast and the people in the group are so friendly and helpful. Bruce is a great teacher. Very patient and accommodating and usually pretty funny. Don't worry about needing to be able to "dance". Square Dancing is choreographed walking to the music. Bruce mixes in the Pop with the country. Last night we danced to "Call Me Maybe, Hit Me With Your Best Shot and Penny Lane". I highly recommend this as a great way to have fun, meet people and get some exercise.
