Great staff and facility
Something for everyone—a pleasant atmosphere 👍🏿
I enjoy all of the the group classes I've tried (Body Pump, Pilates, and Cycling). The instructors are all wonderful and motivating. I also love the throwback hits and motown music Mike plays during cycling class. I love Detroit
I like the variety of offerings and the childcare options... although, I do wish the child care had an optional free play/ kids' gym area. The YMCA where I grew up had what was essentially an indoor playground for kids. The space was modestly sized with normal 10' drop ceilings; it was not a gymnasium by any stretch. But it was wall-to-wall with active equipment-- tumble mats, slides, climbing nets. Very fun. And encouraged an active lifestyle while parents were doing the same.
Thanks for listening.
great facilities, people and service.
Great place for families to grow together and individually.
Our family loves the Bolls Y. Welcoming staff. Stare of the art equipment. A wide range of activities and classes. The pool is outstanding!
Is the many experiences and challenges that goes into building character through its many programs.
The staff is extremely attentive to your needs, the instructions are fantastic, friendly and show different levels of exercise movements for any person to enjoy the classes.
Great staff.
I love the friendly atmosphere and staff at the Boll Family YMCA the most. The variety of activities available is great also.
I love access. I love the people that greet you when you come in I love that my sons feel at home when they’re there, and I also love that they’re having swimming lessons in the inner city.
The best part about the the Y that I love is the group classes the instructors are energetic and kind.😀
I attend the water exercise class and AOA class on occasion. Marieta is so energetic and it motivates me to push myself. The locker room cleanliness has improved since the sewer flies were eliminated.
The staff, the programs, the facility. All are incredible..
I love the people of the Y. From the folks at the front desk to course instructors I have been consistently impressed by the warmth and professionalism of everyone that I've encountered. The only downside is the obvious one: parking.
Accessibility and the team is accommodating and friendly.
Great place, great pool and water exercises, tai-chi, and amazing weight room, etc, etc, etc...
The staff are friendly, the facility is clean, the lifeguards show up for their shifts, the facility is not overcrowded. I couldn’t recommend this location more.
Very well maintained facility, friendly staff, good selection of equipment and a nice pool!
clean, friendly, hours of operation, equipment and classes
I love the Y and the community it brings. The facility is well run and always so clean.
I would love these additions;
Extra programing during DPSCD breaks, open rock climb, open swim, or other extra activities for kids
I would also appreciate some programing for "second shift" working adults! I would totally take a 10am yoga or dance class during the week! People in the service industry, hospitality, and health care have a wide range of schedules, I think you would find interest in late morning classes for non-seniors.
Thanks!

I like the Boll Y because it is senior friendly.
