The active older adult classes
Everyone is friendly!
Fantastic customer service
I like the AOA and chair yoga. That's all I've participated in.
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).
It is convenient, clean and the staff is cordial. I like the array of choices for exercise.
Friendly staff
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.

The most friendly & welcoming staff.
There are such a fantastic variety of work out sessions offered. I am a Senior (AGE). and in all the classes I participate in we are instrucsted and encouraged to work at our individual ability/level. Just keep moving.
It is amazing to find out that one is capable of doing more than one thinks they can.
We are stronger than we think—-

Friendly staff, clean environment
Top notch, instructors, friendly staff, who are willing to listen and help you anyway; not locked into the same way of doing things and willing to be flexible.
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.
