Member Testimonials
I am 71 years young 😀 worked out my whole like..now with weights, pickleball, core classes and more..
When I see peeps my age and older upstairs on the machines with weights they look overwhelmed!
Would be nice if a staffer/trainer would walk around and monitor for a few minutes and ask if the need some guidance??
Staff shortage I get it..but some show up a couple times and never return..
Has a little something for everyone & the friendly & knowledgeable staff is a bonus....
The staff are very helpful and friendly. The facility is always clean and there's a variety of equipment available.
Friendly staff, clean.
The people are nice. The YMCA Southgate does pretty well to blend all ages and programs so that everyone has something. I have noticed that the YMCA is offering more for families with young children.
I do enjoy my deep water exercise classes, but what I love most at the Y is the friends that I have made here. I have been a member here for about 22 years. We have formed a very close connection with our teacher Nancy W and with many members too. We have an unofficial lunch together most months and that reinforces those friendships.

Melissa is a great at teaching the Cardio Drumming! The equipment provided needs to be addressed. Lots of cracked drums!
Well equipped gym great personnel and clientele friendly place
Very welcoming. Plenty of activities.
I like dressing privately, all other YMCA 's are not private. All other Y's do not have a warm water section. This Y has a large pool. I wish all the YMCAs were like that. Also, the YMCAs are set-up old fashion and not updated. I think downriver is setup best.
I enjoy the different types of excerise choices. Friendly staff who are ready to help. I have met so many new people, who have become friends. I have also enjoyed many events there.
I have been coming to the Y for years. I love the aqua aerobics and the teacher and all the friends I have made thru the years. I also attend yogo class and exercise classes in the gym.
I have been coming to this location for over two years now. The staff is always friendly and helpful many greet me by name. It is a very enjoyable experience!
Fun safe place for my children. They have a blast with making friends and no electronics. I have no complaints.
The whole staff is very helpful if I have a question. The facility itself is kept very clean and totally usable and I have never had an issue there in over 3 years.
