Every staff member is friendly and supportive and professional. From the front desk staff the to trainers in the fitness areas to the instructors to the lifeguards. Everyone makes it a great place to work out at your own level in a safe, comfortable environment!
I like the number and types of equipment available. The Y is open long enough to serve my needs. And I like the group activity options. I sometimes wish there were more group classes and times as they frequently are filled long before the sessions begin.
The South Oakland Y is centrally located, has all the basics for fitness ( pool, wellness center, gym, classes), has a great staff, and friendly, diverse members.
The locker room could be cleaned a bit more regularly, but the effort has improved over the last year.
It’s has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere
You need to have more than two recumbent bikes on the first floor. I bring my dad and I often cannot exercise with him because the second bike isn’t an available. I can’t leave him so I do t get to exercise
