Member Testimonials

The updated locker rooms are beautiful and very practical!! A very positive improvement!! The staff are very friendly and helpful!!

The truth is my YMCA experience began in 1998. It would be impossible for me to describe my YMCA experience just based on the two or three weeks I've been at the Farmington location. I started at the Westland Y in 1998, when my physician recommended water exercise would be good for recovering from a knee injury resulting in surgery. The staff was excellent.
The staff at Westland was excellent. My son was three years old and fascinated by the water.
So I started him in toddler classes as a guppy or a tadpole. When Westland closed I was relocated to the Livonia Y where I met another wonderful group of YMCA water staff and the front desk staff also.
So, I'm extremely hopeful that Farmington will be a continuation of a great experience, since (warm) deep water exercise is my lifestyle.
By the way I love the upgrades to the ladies locker room.
The private dressing rooms are great.

the staff has been extremly helpful working out my unique summer needs for a membership. Kudos to Rebecca for getting it done.

Friendly staff and clean atmosphere. Pam is the best trainer I have ever worked with.

wonderful equipment, wonderful staff and nice and clean. They also have nice programs for group excerise.

I really love the pool. I was disappointed tonight when I was told I needed to get out at 7:45 pm. I was not aware that you now close at 8:00 pm. When I was a member in the past, it was open until 10:00 pm. I will need to adjust my schedule to get there earlier.

Janet Pauly!! I came to her at 41 years old suffering from major aquaphobia. I was traumatized at four years old from my father. I started my private swim lessons with her on a weekly (Mondays) basis from the middle to late part of April of this year. I've had a panic attack in the water. I've cried in the water. At this point, I am doing things I never thought I could do in this amount of time.
I can:
Back and belly float
Back and belly kick to 10 feet with kickboard on belly or overhead straight
Close to treading water
Swim to 6 feet without any floatation device
Swim with flippers or the kickboard to 10 feet (face in water/breathing)
Seated dives in 10 feet water
Workout in her aerobics class with the floatation belt in 10 feet with comfort

The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. The water aerobics instructor, Janet, is great! I love the inclusive environment. I, for one, feel very welcomed to be there.

Great instructors and friendly staff. The physical upgrades done in the past couple years have also been a welcomed change!
