Member Testimonials
It has been a good experience.
From check-in with the friendly staff at the front desk to the instructors, members and the woman who goes around cleaning, everyone is so nice, kind and quick to offer a smile. I look forward to coming in each time. I also appreciate the emails when the power has been out.
So far so good. The building is kinda weird. LOL......I find myself getting lost at times in it.
Clean facility, more than enough equipment to exercise. Indoor track is very impressive. So many things to do at this Ymca.
The offerings are awesome. Rejoined after my spouse had Covid and we were gone over a year. So glad to be back!
It’s very senior friendly, the staff and instructors are wonderful. I really enjoy the classes that are appropriate for all age abilities.
Staff is friendly
Great classes and instructions
The location has a friendly staff to make my experience very positive. Specifically, it has a wide range of choices in athletic programs – swimming, a gym, weights, and running equipment. Lastly, and most important of all, the cost saving, is a Normas compared to Other choices that we have in the community.
Everyone is very friendly.
Water Fitness classes are great!
The staff are a pleasure to be with. Always leave with a smile.
The staff is like family. Their efficiency. They also make certain that our needs are met. The classes are Great. Vicki is a outstanding teacher/trainer. The cleanliness at The Royal Oak facility.
The staff at the front desk, I can't give enough accolades.
The instructors are wonderful and the friendships I have made with the other members! I love the Y!!
Always a machine available in the gym and a good selection of machines to use
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Very good facilities.
The people running the program really made every kid feel special and included. I also loved the structure of program, it really helped the kids work together on learning the fundamentals and being a team.
Great staff, instructors and classes
I lovep the pool. It is a very comfortable place for an older person to do some serious lap swimming.
It is a rich reward knowing that my Silver Sneakers membership is honored at the YMCA! Getting to know the South Oakland Royal Oak facility specifically has been very satisfying. The place is clean, the staff friendly, the location convenient. It has been a very positive experience for me thus far!
Friendliness of staff.
I enjoy how friendly the staff members are and their professionalism
Good activities and friendly staff
Love the pool
It’s always the best part of my day!
The staff is awesome. The facilities are good except the gym work out equipment is antiquated
Does not compare with other well known work out places. I’d rather stay at the Y but the equipment needs to be replaced and updated.
The aquatic staff are skilled and friendly. Water fitness classes are fun and give a great workout. Would like to see a class on Friday mornings at the South Oakland YMCA.
The instructor was amazing. She was very detailed and welcoming. Even at times when it might of been difficult for me to do some of the exercises she still was encouraging and very helpful. I didn't feel left out and I actually gained confidence in the workouts. Definitely would recommend!!!
Affordable. We loved that we could both get in the pool! Great intro to swim for a baby
I like the professional approach to the class and the staff is very helpful and friendly
