Member Testimonials
I participate in the Active Older Adults exercise class at the South Oakland branch and I am very happy with it. The class is challenging yet very appropriate for our age group. The only thing I would add to improve the class is to have a larger space or a smaller class
The ladies at the desk are friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoy the group classes and instructors. I would like to see Zumba or dance classes to be offered in the evening . I would also like to see Body Combat offered 2 evenings a week.
The Farmington Y is conveniently located, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and the facility is kept clean. I enjoy the wellness group classes, especially the ones taught by Lyn. She is an exceptional instructor.
Great place, comfortable atmosphere. Remind members to wipe down equipment after use and stay home if coughing or feeling sick.
