Member Testimonials
Just joined and it's already paid off in the variety of ways I can choose to exercise; in the fun my family has on a hot day during free swim and an activity my whole family can engage in separately yet together. We love it.
I like the classes, the pool, the community feel, full gym and a personal trainer for an affordable price
The South Oakland YMCA is the best place to go for a refreshing swim and invigorating sauna, The members are friendly and the staff is professional and attentive. It is the highlight of my day!
