Very good trainers getting our rates up
Welcoming staff, exercise machines are wonderful ( love the egym). Only complaint is the pool water too warm for early morning swimmers and the water is always cloudy
I love the EGYM and the Tuesday senior mobility class with Jim.
I have a suggestion-please consider adding another bike rack. I’m a bike rider and lately the only bike rack is often full.
Thank you!
Nice facility, friendly staff and members. A happy place!
The service in the counter in good. , and the pool is clean
The classes and instructors are great!
The thing that I most appreciated was having a staff member give me a guided tour of the facility and to take the time to review with me the printed roster of classes. She additionally offered me suggested classes based on my goals and preferences. I couldn't ask for a better introduction to the South Oakland YMCA. .
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Been coming here for years. It's a great place to exercise.
The instructors, The classes. The people and meeting new friends

The community is everything and the facility is perfect
Everything is clean and working. Employees are friendly, courteous and helpful.
Chair yoga was very exhilarating for my mother.
It’s nice and clean everyone friendly and you get in and get out and I enjoy coming
I love how friendly and helpful the staff is. When I called recently about Zumba class to inquire whether a substitute would be available for Erica’s class, a staff member helped me by providing the information. There was a substitute for Zumba today, which was great.
It’s always a pleasure to work out at the Y. I meet a lot of nice people of all ages.

My experience with the YMCA has been both enjoyable, educational and ergonomically efficient. I appreciate the wide range of class offerings and their electronic gym floor with mobile application and synced wrist bands at the Royal Oak location. I attend the the older adult fit class to get full body workouts with a challenge yet modifications when amd as needed. I would recommend for anyone looking to improve their weekly exercise engagement in a fun, family, Christian atmosphere.
