I like going to the YMCA at Royal Oak. Great pool and an excellent gym. Very friendly staff.
Friendly staff and plenty of workout equipment in very clean environment. Great programs for kids and seniors!
I like that people from all types of backgrounds use the Y, no gym bros making the rest of us feel uncomfortable.
I love the group senior exercises that I attend every week.
The staff, but can you please extend the hours , the hours are terrible LA. Fitness has longer hours, the pandemic has been over for 4 years !!
The friendliness of the staff and fellow members.
More group aquatics have been added. Just need a Friday am class.
All equipment and exercise space is very accessible. The personnel is very friendly
The water aerobics classes and the fitness room
The variety of senior citizen classes and how they are scheduled.
My experience at the Y has led to an overall improvement in every area of my life. I'm able to access fitness classes and equipment that is strengthening my body, elevating my mind and lifting my sprits. I feel strong and happy. My family and I are making friends and building community. It feels good to be connected.
The members and the teachers are so welcoming and make me feel part if a community not just an exercise class.
