Member Testimonials
Love the Y and all the class offerings and both pools!
Very helpful employees!
The facility is clean. It would be nice if members who use the gym equipment clean after usage.
I notice both Men and Women fail to clean.
The YMCA staff are very helpful and friendly.
I like swimming; it makes me feel healthy!
Staffing. Classes for seniors, all of them.
Friendly, knowledgeable person answered the phone and my questions.
Atmosphere and professional
Access to pools and kindness of staff
Everyone is so welcoming and friendly, the facility is clean and I love the pool.
I love the group exercise classes the instructors are awesome!
the peeps at the front desk are very helpful and welcoming. This was important to me as I was transitioning from the Y in Birmingham.
Flavia was also very helpful to me and showing how to grapple with new machines. I don't recall the gentleman's name who set me up with the eMachines but he, too, was very helpful.
My family and I have had many great experiences with the facilities. Everything from the instructors to the equipment is more than we can use in spare time. Also there are new experiences to be had daily if you have the time. I would definitely recommend a YMCA over any other Gym I have used over 30 years of chasing healthy habits.
Two things share top spot for what I like best about my first week as a member of the South Oakland YMCA: the wonderful people - staff and members, and the great options (classes, track, equipment)
Friendly, supportive staff. Great fitness instructors. Nice updated thorough exercise equipment.
We love how it’s so family friendly. Families who will make the investment can get that back within a few days of use. We also love all the fitness areas from the weight room, racquetball courts, and the pool. All of the open swim times are perfect!
The instructors do a fantastic job speaking through the exercise to help us stay together. Some also explain what benefit the movement gives our body!!
Started classes with Jackie and Stephanie, both instructors are great. Take time to explain and correct positioning if needed. Enjoying the classes on top of treadmill and cycling. Thanks
Need more dumbbells, heavier weights.
I love the HIIT, BodyPump, and yoga classes at the Y. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The other Y members attending the classes have been very friendly and welcoming. After just a few months it feels like home.
Helpful and friendly front desk staff.
I really love the Macomb Y. Friendly staff clean, well equipped, no power lifting bros posing and acting all judgmental, and close to home. Can't ask for much more..
Love it when the sauna and the hot tub are both working! Love the morning swim classes Flippers especially
I was greeted warmly and feel so welcome coming from Texas! The staff was helpful and told me there may be interest in programming for people with disabilities via music therapy and movement. Please let me know if you would like an in-service for your staff!
Swimming hand grips are needed on the rails for the large pool.
Great instructors! Good friendships among participants.
Always pleasant people
I like the senior classes but wished they were a little later than 9am. Sometimes not able to move that good so early. Also the Tues class needs a bigger space. Lot of interest in that and no room. I once looked into pickleball in gym and there were 6 people participating. Doesn’t seem fair that we can’t have at least half of gym
The summer camp experience was excellent!
It’s clean and staff is always pleasant. Hours are good.
There are many things I like about the Y:
*Reasonably priced membership fee
*Friendly and professional staff who seem to enjoy working there
*Fiendly and competent training staff

Aerobics class and swimming
