Member Testimonials
Enjoy socializing and meeting new people in Yoga and Pickleball!
Various classes and the flexibility in creating your schedule. No pressure!
Silversneakers program.....especially classes lead by Vicky.
The place is clean and equipment is in good condition. The location is senior friendly.
Everything is great, thank you.
The staff and members are friendly and it is the most centrally located YMCA in Metro Detroit- so very convenient to get to.
While I like Boll YMCA, paying for parking is a strain on my budget. Farmington YMCA is too far west and Birmingham Y ( so I hear) is closing soon. I hope the Metro Detroit Y execs realize what a good location South Oakland is, and support it.
