The people in my Body Pump classes are the best. Also the instructor is really good and very nice too
Helpful staff, many choices, clean and spacious areas
People and the staff are very friendly especially lately my health has not been the best when I have to cancel a class such short notice they are not upset at all
We love Chris! He makes swim fun and is a great communicator. Give that man a raise, he's earned it!!
We love swimming at the Y.
The water classes are my favorite. Sometimes they are too full and it is difficult to have room to move. I also really miss the chair yoga in the gym.
I love the water aerobics classes at the Downriver Y in Southgate. I am a senior that has arthritis with bad knees, back and hips but this is exercise I can do. I really wish there were more classes available as the ones offered are often full. Maybe even could have some on Tuesday's or Thursday’s so more people could get the benefits of this type of exercise.
I love th Y since I discovered water exercises every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It helps keep my muscles and tendons strong so I can move with very little pain with my RA arthrities,
Before this I learned to play pickle ball which was a little too strenuous for me and before that simply walkng the track and riding the exercise bike. Every phase of exercise is good for us but I love the water exercises the best!
I am so happy I finally took the opportunity to take advantage of Renew (Silver Sneakers). I LOVE the water aerobics classes and our instructor Nancy Warden. While keeping it fun and changing it up we get a great all around water workout. Wishing I would have taken the opportunity sooner. Such a wonderful group of fun and caring people.
I love the Y…it’s the new App I have issues with.
Nancy is always pushes to get the most out the class..Nice variety of exercises each class. Locker room is nice and clean .
I mostly attend the classes.
The staff at the front desk is great - friendly & helpful.
The instructors make the classes fun.
We love the silver sneakers work outs on Monday and Wednesday mornings. Everyone who works there are very nice. The facility is very clean.
Because they have all the program and resources you need as a family in one place. All you need is just to show up.
I like that there are planned activities and that they vary day to day.
Hours of operation.
I love the classes and just swimming. As long as the areas stays clean, I will be swimming.
Staff is awesome
Family!
The summer camp is an AMAZING program! All of the counselors, directors, down to Miss Sherry who signs everyone in and out, is always welcoming and friendly! They make sure that every camper is welcomed and comfortable! Will always recommend!
I thought the exercises and the coach were fantastic.
The instructor (Nancy) is always challenging us, and the group is great - like s bunch of friends.
There is a young man named Jacob that works the desk at the Southgate Michigan YMCA. My wife and I feel he should be recognized for his kindness and professionalism. He ALWAYS greets us when coming and leaving the Y. As senior citizens, we find it refreshing to find a young man who is polite and engaging with older citizens. Good job Jacob!!
I really enjoy the morning body pump class and the low impact aerobic class. Both instructors are great. I wish you could get a daytime yoga class. Also it would be nice if you staggered the class times so people were able to do two classes in a row.
Everyone was considerate especially when my child was having challenges with transitioning from cub camp to 5&6.
The Y is our home away from home. From swim lessons, gym access, free class and child watch, there are a number of activities for our family to participate in. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the facility is well maintained.
The facility is well maintained. Most of the coaches are very kind to the students and work well with them individually as well as in a group. My children are always excited to go to swim class.
The instructor is friendly, helpful and direct. The class always starts and ends on time. The people in the class are fun, accomodating and great to work with. The facility is always clean.
My daughter had a great time and great learning Experience
My son had a wonderful experience at the Y summer camp! The camp counselors and kids were so nice and welcoming. The camp was well organized and so much fun. Look forward to joining again next summer! Thank you!
