The track & straight training eq
Love the warm pool and classes with Lisa. Love the sauna and clean shower and dressing area. Also enjoy walking on the indoor track.
Very good walking track available in every kind of weather!
Every thing
You have every thing I need not only gym courts but also service 🙏
I love the classes. Instructors are fantastic! Knowledgeable, encouraging, friendly and motivating.
Friendly staff and clean facilities
Patrick, my therapist was excellent!
Friendly, clean, easy to get to.
Everyone is very helpful. There are so many options for your workout. I like the energy at the Y with families and people of all ages
The facilities are great. My only complaint is that there are fewer classes that appeal to seniors than there used to be. More land classes are needed. I do the Tuesday Thursday deep water at 10. One of the only available senior oriented land classes conflicts with that. I wish there were Monday Wednesday Friday options for stretch, flex, strength, and/ cardio land classes with seniors in mind. With the change coming in January ( MVP not having one pass) I think there will be more senior Y members and they will be looking for more class options. Our water classes are already very crowded on most days. I hope there is a plan in place to accommodate more new members with appropriate classes. Most of the Les Mills type classes are not appropriate for older people. For years I did step aerobics. I love that so much. Wish there was an option for that class that was not Les Mills. Those canned programs have too many High impact repetitions for aging joints.
Great facility and lovely staff! Wide variety of equipment and always clean.
It's unique design. It's appeal to disabled people. It's cleanliness (not perfect, but always being worked upon). Friendly, helpful staff. I like the others who are there . . . exercising, like me. Everybody is nice . . . they all WANT to be there. They are improving their own lives.
Love the water classes at the Y the instructors are wonderful. Also upstairs have every free bit. They have the best physical therapy people. If you need them, they’re there for you.
This place has it all for all ages. There's an indoor walking track for winter fitness as well as pool, basketball courts, pickleball, and every kind of exercise machine you can imagine.
Its always so clean and the workers are always so friendly!
I like how many different kinds of people are there- diversity of all kinds. The gym newer thing to me as a 47 year old non-athletic person, and the diversity helped me to feel like I could fit in at the Y on my first visit.
Space is clean, bright, and accessible.
Equipment is readily available, clean and functioning.
People at the reception are friendly.
There is a good energy to the place.
Many and varied machines, classes, pools, track. Trainers available. Love that there are events for children to teach the importance of staying fit. Love special accommodations for handicapped.
MFBY staff are very friendly and helpful. The facility is clean and offers a huge variety of exercise experiences. Fantastic that the pool has so many lanes!
Staff are friendly, working out, and the Pool area.
It's a great all inclusive experience!
I would like to see more space to stretch with the exercise mats. Some of the fitness rooms would be nice to use when they aren't in use for other activities. I know the Wolverine YMCA does this.
My husband and I have been members of the Y for many years. The instructors have been wonderful. However, with all the new patrons, coming from MVP we think it has put a strain on our Mary Freebed Y. The classrooms have been really crowded, equipment has been short and the workout mats are getting scarce. Many of the workout mats are in bad shape. We need new ones. The stretch bands are also in rough shape. You need to purchase more. You need to purchase more of the free weights for the strength and stretch classes. If you continue to grow maybe you will have to add more classes.
I can walk in the facility.
I can have massage with a fair price.
Otis very clean.
Many different options from group classes to individual activities
