Member Testimonials
Wonderful aquatics classes. Isaac Golan is a great instructor. It's been painful when the pool has been closed due to lifeguard shortages. Hopefully this situation will be fixed soon.
The group classes, especially senior yoga with Vicky, are excellent. I always feel I get a good head to toe workout. I have also found the staff at the reception desk helpful and friendly.
The activities for the kids, the field trips, the camp counselors, the admin, the diversity in cultures. The Y team is the best!
My son had a great time in summer camp this year and requested to come back next year. The field trips, new friends and games has made a impression on my son and I.
Friendly, good activities
Cleanliness of the facility, friendly staff, and user friendly classes. Great community atmosphere and good communication on campus updates and the daily calendar.
Love the classes and instructors
Chimere is a great camp director…my kids used to go there all the time but this year we went the last week of August and everyone remembers us!!!
Great camp counselors and just wish the pool was open!!!!!
Your holiday camps are the best and most helpful for parents who have to work!!!!
Location, people and staff
The class was so wonderful. The instructor First name removed was great!
The Y is the best place for seniors with mobility issues to take water aerobics. Safe and clean with professional and friendly staff who are used to their geriatric students and will never let you hurt or overexert yourself. The South Oakland Y is the best place to swim!!
I have recommended the Wednesday evening swim fitness class to other people. She provides an excellent workout plan and makes it a fun environment even while working up a sweat.
My daughter loved her theater camp!!!
My overall health and fitness level has improved immensely since I started the classes. Our instructor is wonderful, she makes everyone feel welcome and included. I have met some great friends there too. Great way to socialize and get fit. I actually look forward to going to the classes and miss them when I can't attend.

The Y is very helpful with the senior. I love the program they offer senior.
Our swimming instructor, Deana, was excellent. She is warm, diligent, and great with kids.
Wonderful instructor!
How the counselors get to know each child and how well cared for they are at the camp. They go out of their way to ensure the health, safety and welfare of each child is met. They keep the kids constantly busy with activities, bring in special events, to the field trips. Yes, this year has some hiccups with bussing but the leadership at the camp was quick to react and have other plans in place when the planned activities could not be executed or delayed to another date.
Staff were very friendly and accommodating of our ever-changing schedules. This camp taught my kids to swim, core values, and they discovered new friends that attend their schools! Amazing field trips, special days, and excellent hours! 10/10 will be back next year!
Good fun.
Convenient, exercise programs YMCA offers, and friendly staff, makes me feel comfortable being a member.
Friendliness of the staff and other members.
Love the group classes
Very friendly, fun and affordable
I love the classes, events and amenities. The community vibe is strong. I've met new people and I'm happy with how the Y has become a part of my healing and wellness journey. I have only been coming a short time but am already more fit, feeling stronger and the benefits are spilling over into my daily life. I do recommend
Friendly staff, multiple class options are crucial. August has had slim pickings for classes and I am hopeful that there are more options for September
