I have always been a fan of the Y! It provided camps for my son when he was younger and it has been a great place to work out for me with many options of classes. I am still a firm believer that this is a wonderful place

There is a very positive community atmosphere at the S Oakland Y. The management sets the tone for the staff who make everyone feel welcome. I appreciate and participate in many of the classes, which has had a huge impact on my physical and mental wellbeing. I wouldn’t be able attend classes if there were extra fees for them. I am grateful for the Y.

The staff at the front desk are friendly and helpful; I look forward to greeting them every time I arrive.

Also, the equipment is well-stocked and everything I need for my workout is always available (except maybe, occasionally, balance balls, when they are being used by a class).

Facility is nice and clean. Staff is very friendly, welcoming and always ready to listen and assist. Instructors are very competent and make sure they teach by meeting members where they are. Especially enjoy the Active Older Adult classes.
