The YMCA has been a welcoming and family friendly place for me and my family for years. The staff are friendly, the programs are excellent, and there is a genuine sense of community. They have a variety of programs and I would highly recommend the YMCA to others.

Generally, equipment is available for my workout when I need it. Also like that the facility has a therapeutic tub, pool and sauna.

Pool is great and the staff and members are friendly. I wish the lap lanes could be open longer though.

I am 71 years young 😀 worked out my whole like..now with weights, pickleball, core classes and more..
When I see peeps my age and older upstairs on the machines with weights they look overwhelmed!
Would be nice if a staffer/trainer would walk around and monitor for a few minutes and ask if the need some guidance??
Staff shortage I get it..but some show up a couple times and never return..

The people are nice. The YMCA Southgate does pretty well to blend all ages and programs so that everyone has something. I have noticed that the YMCA is offering more for families with young children.

I do enjoy my deep water exercise classes, but what I love most at the Y is the friends that I have made here. I have been a member here for about 22 years. We have formed a very close connection with our teacher Nancy W and with many members too. We have an unofficial lunch together most months and that reinforces those friendships.

I like dressing privately, all other YMCA 's are not private. All other Y's do not have a warm water section. This Y has a large pool. I wish all the YMCAs were like that. Also, the YMCAs are set-up old fashion and not updated. I think downriver is setup best.
