Everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable. There are great group fitness classes. And I really enjoy the eGym workout system. It's an excellent program for consistent weight training with built-in guidance. I've never been as consistent and successful with my resistance training before in my whole life. But now I'm a regular on the weight machines and I'm seeing results!

The YMCA is a community. The facilities and equipment are always clean and safe. The staff are friendly, kind, encouraging and knowledgeable. We members come in all shapes, ages, sexs, colors, backgrounds and treat the "Y" with respect.

Together we celebrate health and each other.

It's a place that feels like home. My son is free to be himself, although he's young and I'm free to be his mom while in a healthy environment. Thank you all for what you do.

The YMCA Royal Oak is very clean and everyone is friendly. So far (it's only been two weeks and I have attended the water aerobics classes last week and yesterday so only 3x), the class is great, instructors are good and people in class are so nice.

My wife and I enjoy coming to the Y and participating in the classes that are offered. I also enjoy playing pickleball in the gym. We really need more courts if the building of the new Y is being planned.

So far this YMCA branch is clean on the inside and during warmer weather it appears clean on the outside grounds. The class offerings are good, though I may not be able to take advantage of classes due to my work schedule. The staff who work the front desk are pleasant and helpful.

Things that bother me at another fitness entity that I hope do not ever become issues at this or any YMCA location are extremely loud talking (not necessary), profane language (a violation of other people’s right not to hear it), nastily kept locker and pool areas, grounds littered with trash while the workers sit around instead exhibiting care for the business grounds/facility by picking up trash to maintain a clean appearance.

So, so far and I hope never, the Royal Oak Y is good.

The Y on 11 Mile Road in Royal Oak is very clean and everything is well maintained. Along with a variety of classes offered, the convenient hours and plentiful exercise equipment ensure that you can always get a good workout. Joining the Y is one of the best things we've done for our health.
