It's a clean facility. There are lots of machines and weights to use. The track is great alternative for the treadmill.
The only thing I don't like is how bad 25% of the people lifting are at reracking their weights. Can there be like penalties or a ban for these people?
I like the fact that I see All ages at the YMCA, everyone trying to improve their health through exercise and socialization. As a Senior, I also love seeing the small children participating in activities, whether it is swimming, classes, or even the nursery!
It’s family
You feel like you're cared about by all the instructors.
The men's locker room needs a bench outside the sauna
Not having a bench outside the sauna is CRUEL
So members must sit on the floor?
Bad YMCA
Water Aerobics
Friendly staff
Evetything.is.clean everyone is so nice
The only thing I noticed is that you have very limited space for the Friday Activities for Older Adults with Lynda Scott.
She is a very popular instructor and that space we were in on Friday was too small.
And enrolling every week is problematic.
We love the swim teachers! All have been so kind and each brings a different approach and personality.
Friendly staff and instructors, always clean, and shares info quickly
Everything you want and need at the Facility. Great variation of workout equipment.
Great classes.
Everyone is helpful and knowledgable.
A gret place to exercise.
Great environment. Feels safe and inclusive and all age groups represented. Facility is in great shape and close to home so I will be less apt to skip workouts. Love the facility too and how well it's run.
I participate in the Active Older Adults exercise class at the South Oakland branch and I am very happy with it. The class is challenging yet very appropriate for our age group. The only thing I would add to improve the class is to have a larger space or a smaller class
The ladies at the desk are friendly and knowledgeable. I enjoy the group classes and instructors. I would like to see Zumba or dance classes to be offered in the evening . I would also like to see Body Combat offered 2 evenings a week.
The Farmington Y is conveniently located, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and the facility is kept clean. I enjoy the wellness group classes, especially the ones taught by Lyn. She is an exceptional instructor.
Great place, comfortable atmosphere. Remind members to wipe down equipment after use and stay home if coughing or feeling sick.
Staff are helpful and friendly! Facilities are very clean and well maintained.
So many of the members have been members for years that tells you something!
