Member Testimonials
I loved every part of this experience. The swim instructor was so patient, kind and professional.
The instructor was amazing! He helped us learn at our own pace. Didn’t force anyone to do anything they didn’t feel comfortable with, but still made sure that we learned the fundamentals to use them when we were comfortable. Lots of positive affirmations throughout as well. Definitely learned a lot in these couple of weeks. I can swim!
It very good
He is the greatest swim teacher in history. I went from being scared in 5 feet to now diving in the deep end treading water and not being afraid to try to things. He deserves the maximum raise in the history of the ymca!!!
It is well-kept, clean, the clientele is nice. I love the pools! I wish there was a sauna.
I've enjoyed attending the fitness classes. The instructors and participants have been welcoming and encouraging. I'm enjoying this so far.
The classes I've attended had great energy and well prepared, experienced instructors.
Something for everyone
I love the Equipment upgrades!!!!
Close location
It's not just about the work-out, which is great, but the social aspect. I have made friends at the Y in this class that have really changed my life. As a senior, I am not as connected with co-workers or other people as I once was, and going to the YMCA is great for the social aspect as well as the work-outs.
The instructors are extremely personable and knowledgeable!
I love everything about the Y! The people, the classes, the atmosphere. Shout out to Nick for being my day 1 at the Y. He’s a wonderful instructor, personal trainer, and fitness director. Even if I only moved to Detroit last summer I feel a great sense of community and belonging whenever I visit the Y. Thank you to the whole team for all you do in helping us stay healthy and happy!
The facility is beautiful and well kept. People are very friendly.
Keith is AMAZING with the kids!
My sons developed their swimming skills at the YMCA from a young age, progressing to competitive swim teams throughout high school and now college. Their swimming journey began at the YMCA. My eldest son is currently employed as a lifeguard at the Boll facility. Now that my sons are young adults, I regularly utilize the YMCA's facilities after work, engaging in track walking and weight training. I see the Boll location as my home away from home.
Friendly staff, clean facilities and excellent swim instructors
The people i my Active Older Adult class.

The Boll Y is the best! The facility is absolutely gorgeous and the people are so welcoming. I only wish there was a better option for parking.

The Y has something for everyone in the family. Scheduled times are good as well; taking into consideration work schedules and considering those that may be retired.

That having accessibility to most of the classes and my senior classes! Clean, convenient to living downtown. And the incredible community that here. The staff is just beautiful!💗
Great Pilates instructor! As a beginner, she allowed me to adjust to my level, and made it a great workout without being overwhelming.
Trainers like COLIN PARKS, NICK and LISSY are excellent! Group workouts are the ABSOLUTE best and they promote CONSISTENCY.
