Lots of variety, excellent instructors and coaches.
The best of exercise classes! Variety, scheduling, and outstanding instructors are the top reason. Something for everyone in the line up of classes at DFY!
The entire staff - especially the front desk folks are unique to the Decatur Y; no match anywhere to the welcoming, efficient, and friendly group always available!
I like the outdoor pool, and that there is plenty of workout space - plenty of machines to use.
The ease in coming and going to use the broad facilities available.
Great staff and wonderful instructors for group classes!

There is so much acceptance at the YMCA. If you reach out and question, there is someone who will listen. My YMCA, Decatur YMCA, is especially friendly. Instructors are very inclusive. Everyone is welcome.
I have really enjoyed the great group exercise classes, and the community of friends that exists within the various classes.

I love the customer service. I have had nothing but a great experience with the front staff and the intake person. My children want to go to the Y every weekend. They are staying active and that is most important to me. Thank you!

Everything
A variety of activities for beginners to advanced. Everyone is very pleasant and helpful.
I like the yoga and tai chi classes, although I wish you offered tai chi more often.
I like the Bodypump classes and the dedicated teachers! I wish there were water fountains near the classroom. The classroom is quite small and nearly always full. I request that there be a rule that men not wear 'wife-beater' t-shirts which allow sweat slinging around during classes.
The fitness programs are excellent at the YMCA Decatur. The staff are friendly and capable of providing a safe and proper fitness programs for all age groups. The facility is clean and well kept.
The Decatur Y is like a 2nd family to me. The employees and members are friendly, I love several of the classes and the facilility is clean.
I use the pool so that is my favorite. It's super nice.

The hours at the play center at Decatur Y are convinent.
