Member Testimonials
While the YMCA network around Grand Rapids has great facilities, we go to the Wolverine Worldwide YMCA most often. The staff is always extremely friendly and helpful. I have a special needs son, Johnny Agar, who works out their regularly and the facilities and people are very accommodating for those with special needs. The facilities are kept up-to-date with any repairs being done quickly and cleanliness is clearly a priority as the place always looks great! The bike studio has state-of-the-art spin bikes and large TV monitors to make the most of the technology for the bike classes to be very enjoyable. The pool is always very clean and order is maintained really well even with large groups of people in the pool. I don't know all the instructors, but related to the ones I attend the most, they are extremely focused on helping everyone in the class make improvements. They are very dedicated to the YMCA. Every effort needs to be made to identify and retain those great instructors! You will see people of all ages and all shapes and sizes working out at the Wolverine YMCA. It is a great location for people who work out every day but is also very welcoming for those just getting started on, or returning to, their fitness journey.

I like the facility, the way it's laid out & has a lot of room for many people.
I also like the variety of ways to exercise.
The facility is kept clean and they offer classes and activities for everyone
I like the classes a lot - they are full of energy and make working out less intimidating because you don't need to know what to do since they tell you exactly what to do when.
The Wolverine Worldwide YMCA sets the bar for customer support, cleanliness, functioning machines. The only complaint I could possibly have as I do not live close enough to this location and obviously that’s not the Y’s fault.
The staff is usually friendly and helpful. I use the Kid Zone and the staff is kind and caring. The woman’s locker room is a usually clean. I enjoy having lockers to use. The walking track is clean and the people using it are usually friendly. I enjoy being able to walk and watch events in the gym area makes walking fun. The other equipment is usually clean too. The YMCA is a great family activity.
Always enjoyed working out at the Wolverine World Wide location. Facility is very nice, staff is great, and always able to use any and all equipment that I want to.
The kid zone, the classes, the community!
The Y offers something different for every member of my family. It’s a place we can go that all 5 of us enjoy.
We have absolutely loved all the instructors we have ever had. Ms. Pinky and Ms. Dez are our two top favorites. They really care for the kids and love to see them succeed and grow in their abilities and comfort levels of being in the water.
Although there are things that could be better, it is still a good place to work out. The pool is wonderful. I wish there were more groupex classes available, but there are many good ones with good teachers. The YMCA is still best option for children's activities and classes. I wish towel service was back.
We love the KidZone Staff, everyone is warm and welcoming. My son enjoys playing and he is greeted each time he walks in.
Lots of programs for kids. Always a clean place. Friendly staff. Good location. Variety of equipment.

Friendly staff clean changing room
Location is great for me. Facilities and equipment are reasonably clean and in good repair. Wide variety of equipment and spaces and classes for active movements and exercises.
Easy to check in and use the facility. Family locker room had very limited space.
I love how the members form relationships from seeing each other in class. The community is my favorite part ❤️
All my kids have gone through swim lessons here, I have tried other places yet I come back here. The small classes have helped my kids soar in the water!
Classes for retired folks and the friendly staff and members. Also that the Y gives back to the community.
Easy in and out, nature trails, running track, wide variety of aerobic equipment, layout of aerobic equipment overlooking gym area.
Kidzone is great.
The pool hours and the people.
Everything
The entire facility is super clean and very easily accessible for everyone (I have some disabilities).
The facility is well ‘stocked’ with various equipment and activities to suit just about all who use it. I love the pool area and have gotten my sister to join the club to swim with me. My husband enjoys the weights and hot tub spa afterwards. It is truly a family site!
