Member Testimonials
Happy member of the Decatur YMCA. Have been going to the Y-Cycle with Joseph Edwards and very much enjoy it.
Friendly and enthusiastic staff
The front desk staff is friendly and helpful. The facilities are clean and welcoming. The instructors are skilled. I also like the fact that you offer a variety of classes for all ability and skill levels. You also do good work for the community. 10/10, folks!
The Y has something for the whole family, young or old.
Low key, welcoming atmosphere .
The Y offers a large number of group classes with really friendly, engaged instructors. I just learned about some of the Y's non-exercise groups, too, and signed up for the writing group. I love all the options!
I love that pickleball is offered, the swimming pool area is always up and working properly the staff is amazing.. I will be registering for some classes
Very comprehensive programs for families!
Lots of options
Broad array of equipment that is always in good condition. And while my first choice of equipment may not always be available exactly when I get there, I never have to wait more than a few minutes to get my workout started.
There are a variety of classes and activities offered.
Right now, I am primarily interested in in using the Life Fitness equipment to increase my overall core body strength. I have not been using the classes, but it seems like there are some excellent classes that I may want to take advantage of in the future.
I like the fact that the cleaning crew is always visible working to keep the facility and the fitness equipment clean and restocking the disinfectant wipes.
The staff is very friendly and always will to answer any questions and provide guidance for using equipment.
New equipment is great! Staff are friendly; wish people wouldn't slam weights on machines. That can't be good for machines.
EVERY THING , EVERY THING , EVERYTHING......Especially the attitude , the warmth , the understanding , the help , the dedication , the concern , I can continue for hours telling about our beloved YMCA . I think you all got what I mean ,,,,,, Nicola H. Ayoub ..... Phone number removed
Everything!,
Convenient location. Clean facility. A few good classes and instructors.
I like the different classes you have like pound that are different. But I do not enjoy that most body pump classes I can never get into because they full up almost immediately.
So many different programs!
Classes for seniors
A lot of choices, great staff/trainers.
Quality equipment, mostly helpful staff, good place for teenagers to exercise
Love the pool
I do cycling at noon with Lisa on Monday and at 10 on Friday with Kristin. They're great instructors and their classes very enjoyable. I also use the exercise equipment 3 times a week. The new equipment is nice but an additional abduction/adduction machine is needed.
I love the soccer program but honestly at this point i am mainly just there to lift. However, I have been trying for a long time to get into the dance party classes but they book so fast!!!!!!
I like the variety and the instructors.
I love the weight room. The machines are usually easy to use and there is very little wait. The vibe is relaxed and friendly. I also love that I can bring my kids to the play center while I take care of my body. The maintenance/housekeeping staff at the Decatur Family YMCA on Clairmont is the best I've seen at any Y I've visited. They are so thorough! I never see dust build-up on the machines or in corners. I've often seen the housekeeping staff cleaning behind machines and in the in-between places that many people would overlook. This detail really stands out to me and I have so much appreciation for this facility!
Lots of opportunity to attend different classes for varied age groups.
The staff creates a warm and welcoming environment and the facilities are well maintained. Thank you!
