I APPRECIATE THE WARM GREETING FROM THE SERVICE PROVIDERS WHEN I ENTER THE BUILDING. THE INSTRUCTORS FOR WATER AEROBICS, & EXERCISE CLASS IS BOTH PLEASANT AND PROFESSIONAL. THE ENTHUSIASM AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PROGRAMS IS PRICELESS. THE YMCA AT SOUTH OAKLAND IS DEFINITELY ACCOMMODATING MY HEALTHY LIVING.

Clean, friendly, easily accessible. I enjoyed many of the classes. The only thing I would like to mention that was disappointing was the water aerobics on wed morning. The instructor just let us bounce around on the water- no structure to the class. I felt it was a waste of time and pool too crowded with people just talking. It was a social hour, not excercise. Which for some I suppose that’s what they’re looking for.

I took Adult Swim Basics with Andrea, and she is incredible! I gained so much confidence over the 7 weeks of class, and hit all my goals for swimming and safety in the water. She is such an excellent instructor, I have recommended the class to anyone I know who can't swim.
Overall, the facility is very clean, and I ended up signing up as a full member as a result of my experience in the swim class.

Totally the best place to workout. Just need more bikes downstairs. Staff and equipment are the best. Camaraderie too.

The friendly staff at the front desk. This is a contrast to what it was several years ago when I thought there was no attempt to be welcoming.
