I do water aerobics (and dance aerobics) four days a week. The teacher are excellent. The community of my "classmates" is so important to stay socially connected while getting a great workout. The only issue is the lack of lifeguards, which I know is a problem everywhere. I just wish you could pay them more so we could attract more lifeguards.
We have belonged to the Farmington YMCA since 1991. When we were moving here, I looked for the Y and then for a place to live :-)
Friendly place to go and workout. Very family oriented
Aqua deep with Linda
Every class I’ve taken has been excellent. I’m very happy with my membership
Community and friendly
I love all the teachers. I take Swim Class and also do a live strong class. They are always amazing.
I love the Easy Does It class. Lisa is fabulous. I would love to see greater consistency in the class being held as well consistency in the temperature of the water and air in the Therapy pool area.
I love the community feel, variety of classes and free weight room. I wish there were a few more early morning classes, I love the Thursday morning Pilates with Danielle and miss Friday morning Georg LesMills.
I value the health benefits and friendships made in the exercise classes I have taken and continue to take at the Y.
Very Friendly! Many classes offered! Love the temperature of the pool!

Linda Scott’s classes!
I love the Easy Does It water exercise class. Lisa is an amazing instructor. Unfortunately, the inconsistency in water temperature in the therapeutic pool is hard on my arthritis. I wish it was more reliable.

The family feel, from the front desk to the same faces I see in the wellness center and in exercise classes. Discovering that I once worked with one of the front desk people (25 years ago?!?) has been a bonus. I wish the HVAC system were more reliable; I had to miss out on a few personal workout sessions over the summer because it was too hot for me in the wellness center. But otherwise, I love the Birmingham location and hope it can maintain a presence in the city.
The registration process was easy with staff at the desk very helpful. I had specific questions regarding the programs / classes I was interested in and they were able to answer these and showed me the pool, etc. The facilities are clean, well maintained and I have enjoyed my first week of attending class.
The staff is always so pleasant
Friendly staff, clean facility. Although I don’t use them, there is a wide variety of classes offered.
Staff iat Downriver Family s extremely friendly and helpful. Impressed with how clean it is.
