Smiling helpful people
The choice of classes and excellent instructors!
Good staff and training.
Warm and friendly staff. Nice selection of classes. The e-gym is amazing!
The instructors do a great job. Friendly and helpful.
The facilities are great and clean. The staff is kind and helpful. We love going there. The only reason why I didn’t give it a 10 is because:
- Not everyone wipes down machines or benches after they use them, which I find disrespectful to everyone else working out.
- When we came for the first time, we didn’t get a tour and nobody told us we need to be scanning out when we leave.
- Some of the front desk staff seem unaware of programs or how to answer questions.
The staff is awesome

The people and staff and friendly. The facility is clean and safe. I can only talk aabout the pool and locker rooms as I just come in, swim laps, and leave. The guards keep us safe.
Great staff, instructors and equipment. A wide-variety of classes.
The facility is well maintained, updated and family-friendly. The staff is friendly and professional. In the event there is an issue with the equipment or members, they are addressed efficiently. I have recommended the Southeast Oakland YMCA to family and friends, many of which have happily joined.
Nice family environment!

Jean was a great trainer and motivator on the egym. Staff is always fun and friendly. Facility is nice
It’s been cleaned up and looks much better than last year. The water is warm in the pool, the showers have plenty of hot water, and the staff are friendly.
staff, class offerings, egym, pool
I cannot help but live and die by the Egym. I am hoping to see Egym expand across several YMCA locations throughout America. I am also in love with the pickleball community that plays every Wednesday and Friday. I hope the pickleball network continues to grow. We have also enjoyed sending our kids to childwatch, summer camp, and "parents night out" events.
I can exercise my complete body in a manageable fashion. I like the E machine’s cycle. People not following the cycle process is annoying.

The classes that are offered. The instructors are welcoming. The hours scheduled are easy to fit into my daily schedule

The staff is friendly, facility is clean, and parking is ample when I am there. I do have to try classes and engage a trainer, but so far my experience has been great.
