Great staff. Clean facilities.
Linda is awesome!
Zumba and senior exercise classes
I absolutely love the aqua easy does it and intermediate classes that I take, HOWEVER I feel that the instructor should take better control of the class. Many many people are there to socialize and talk and it is very disruptive for those of us who really want to exercise. I’m all for socializing but there is just way too much talking during class.
Convenient location, good prices, flexible scheduling, Bill Trapp is great. Will help with nutrition and problem areas
Easy to sign up classes, age appropriate, convenient, friendly environment.

I have been going to YMCA Downriver for several years. The staff is always friendly and very helpful. The facility is always clean and equipment in good condition.
I love the Water Aerobics classes! Now that it’s been expanded to 5 days a week, I’m trying to go Monday through Friday.
Love Danielle’s Pilates class!
The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and professional. I’ve visited other YMCA facilities, and trust me when I say the overall experience here is top-tier. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a positive atmosphere and exceptional customer service. It’s clear that the team genuinely cares about the members and takes pride in creating a great experience for everyone.
Great classses
The instructors they are super nice and take time with the kids. Also they encourage kids to overcome their fears and try to do something.
Flavia is a great personal trainer! She is great to work with on my fitness.
I love the new class John is teaching about Senior Strength. It's both challenging and rewarding. John has an easy-going style and at the same time we're always moving. I come to this class for that, for the challenge and the sense that I am working to my full potential. Please keep this class.
I have friends I've made at the Y and that also makes the Y special for me. I have supportive, encouraging, fun friends. The staff is the same--supportive and fun. Perhaps what I love the most about our Y is the fact that everyone counts, no one is overlooked or made to feel they don't belong. That loving acceptance is without price, and not available in many places.
I like the classes that are offered and the instructors that conduct them. The staff is friendly and helpful. The facility is clean and well maintained.
Clean spacious locker room. Water condition in pools is always excellent. Staff is courteous. Both ceilings, open feeling due to large windows.
The complaint I have heard from people who don’t use the downtown Y is that parking is difficult.
I appreciate the flexibility of the trainers. Sessions are design around the individual schedule and so are the workouts are geared to target the areas discussed during the assessment.
Their facilities are excellent and the personnel are fabulous.
Metric pool. Lap swimming.
Noah has do an amazing job tailoring our workouts to our needs. He pushes us to work hard and to keep our eyes on our goals.
Great staff!

We’ve been working with Bill Trapp at the Farmington Y for a little over two years. We appreciate how he is encouraging and keeps the sessions varied and interesting. Our results have been terrific! We are stronger, more fit, and have greatly improved balance.
