The swim classes have been great. Rachel has been a very thorough and engaging instructor. The women's locker room, shower and sauna is lore spacious than royal oak. The front desk staff are very welcoming.
Great people and facility! Don’t close, please.

Good morning, I’ve been a member of the Birmingham Ymca since 1988 love the community atmosphere that the staff provides.

I really like the instructors for stretch, zumba and Active Older Adults.

Friendly front desk staff, good clean exercise equipment
There are many exercise machines to choose from that work various parts of the body. And I love the Dry Sauna that has been working every time I use it!
We would not want to lose this place at the right spot.
The community feeling
Good exercise classes and Workout equipment and help when you need it.
Enjoy the low key friendly atmosphere with an abundance of options for working out, including the pool.
The exercise classes
Classes for seniors are appropriate to us. Friendly and helpful staff.
Really enjoy the classes,especially yoga!!
The people who work there--all of them.
It is clean, spacious, and the classes are great. Always plenty of parking too. I'm disappointed that this YMCA is closing, as it will make South Oakland even busier. I tried to sign up for a class at South Oakland and it was already full-- this never happens at Birmingham. I'm worried I'll have to cancel my membership as the Y will no longer have the options I need.
All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is like being at home.
Great senior exercise classes, warm and friendly atmosphere.
This is place where I met with many people.Who is became my friends.When l walk in to Y I emediatly fill a lot of energy .
The Birmingham MI YMCA has the training machines, the pool, the programs, the community mission, and the great employees that make this our second home in Birmingham!
The BIrmingham Y has been a part of our family life for several generations. It is so sad that the decision has been made to close this facility. It's difficult to believe that closing the Y was the only solution.
Friendly, fun time with great staff and participants in the swimming class on Tuesday & Thursday.
Friendly staff, great childcare, love the pool
