Member Testimonials

The fitness center is outstanding.

I like the variety of classes. I would like all the classes to start on the hour if possible . Sometimes there is conflict between classes that start on the half hour and water classes that start on the hour

Clean

The facility is always clean and the workout machines in good working order. The staff always greets you with a smile and friendly hello.

Clean, good equipment, nice staff.

Nice indoor track and pools

The staff is so flexible and accommodating!

Professionalism and everyone’s positive energy.

Great instructors

Excellent facility. Staff very responsive and knowledgeable.

The staff is great. Very courteous and friendly. Facilities are nice. Great pool and jacuzzi. Gym and weight rooms. If I could make a suggestion, the locker rooms are very chilly, especially when I get out of the pool to shower and change. They could put in more heat if possible.

Friendly professional staff. Great pool

The staff (especially Ty'Ann and the front desk) has been phenomenal at getting my family acquainted with the services, classes, and entire facility. The options for kids are engaging and give me more flexibility to engage as well.

Friendly staff that's always willing to help.

One thing I'd like to see improved is more maintenance in the free weight room. Some of the machines and benches have broken/missing parts that would be easy to fix:

- The feet on the benches are missing plastic covers
- There aren't enough spring-loaded barbell plate locks (the silver things that go on the outside of the plates and pinch the bar)
- Internal hex head bolts are missing from the bottoms of the benches, making them wobbly.
- The vertical slider on the western-most post of the cable system is broken (plastic pieces broken off inside of it that make it not slide well)
- Not enough exercise mats that stay in the weight room. There are only 2 now, and usually only 1 is there.
- A few of the sand-filled medicine balls have cracks and leak sand. Need to be replaced
- I'd like a butterfly machine to be added somewhere. One where you can do chest fly's and rear delt fly's from the same machine.

Love water aerobics

Easy check in. Clean locker room. Variety of exercises

I like the Farmington Y because of staff consistency. I never have to worry about whether the Y has sufficient staffing to open the pool. This is not so with one other Y (that I know)

It was a good experience signing up to be a member.

Love the pool and weight room. Also free parking.

Comfortable place to work out, and also have many activities for adults and kids.

It’s clean, and the staff is very friendly.
My only suggestion is that they get sanitary wipes for the exercise machines, rather than having a spray paper towel, which is not very sanitary at all, as we grip the sprayer and try to spray those sheets.

Entire staff very friendly and facility very clean.

I like the YMCA it's clean it's friendly and I feel safe and that was the most important thing when I signed up and you have a track there that I like wish I had an elevator but hey

I'm new to the Y, but so far my tour & every experience for example with Bev at the counter has been great.

The therapy pool ~ warm and deep so I can hang from a pool noodle to relieve my back pain ~ works better than any pain pill

We have been a Y family for countless years. First in downtown Detroit and then onto Farmington Hills. Our kids, now grown with their own, spent many weekends on the BB court and in the pools. While Covid is still with us and apparently evolving, I have (thank you Silver Sneakers!) found my way back to the fitness center, sauna and whirlpool. While the recent renovations are terrific, what I really miss is not having an overnight locker.

Clean environment and professional staff.

Convenient, clean, friendly

Variety of classes, the convenient time schedule and the friendly people.
