PLEASE!! PLEASE!! Recruit some experienced yoga teachers and pay them a decent wage. I understand it's all about community service, but this is a tough world we live in and yoga is more important than ever! Patti's absence is solely missed. The 7pm Tuesday class was cancelled 2 weeks in a row and now it's been taken off the schedule completely.
Please make this a priority! Thank you!
Great facility. Staff is friendly and helpful for the most part. But why is the water temperature in the swimming pool always cold? It used to be fine but for many months now it is a couple of degrees cooler than in the past - and a couple of degrees in water temp makes a big difference. Has a decision been made to cool down the water temp? If so I for one do not appreciate it. I only swim at Decatur now if I can't get a lane at East Lake - their water temp is ideal and warmer than yours.
How welcoming the people, and the environment in general, is. It genuinely is a safe space in which you can excersice, meet people and support your community.
The Dance class was amazing.
The showers very clean and spacious. I First name removed they are sanitized daily.
The layout of the workout equipment.
There was no one at the front to direct me when I initially showed up, so without signs I was lost on where to go.
I like the supportive nature of the programs
Diversity.
Love the pool, especially when the music is on.
Family oriented, different classes
Based upon the demand for some cycling classes, you need more cycling classes!
Instructors are great. Please fix the broken bikes!
BodyPump and the gym
The Decatur Y is a great community!
We love YMCA!!!
Our son loves attending the day camps that the Y offers. The variety of different camps allows us to send him for multiple weeks, but still offers him something a little different each week. We love that the Y promotes tons of physical activity; he comes home having expended tons of energy. The counselors are leaders that our son really looks up to and we have had a wonderful experience.
Good variety, Good trainers.
I love the group exercise classes. My favorites are Y Body Burn with Julia, Bodypump with Lucky and Melody, and Dance Party with Alekz. Only one problem: Very often, a class listed as 45 minutes duration goes overtime. I typically plan on leaving when the class was supposed to be over, and I miss out on the cool-down and stretch portion. For some instructors, this is usual, not occasional. Why is this happening? Thanks.
bodypump is great! I wish there were more classes at the Decatur GA YMCA
The Y is very inclusive...with classes for seniors, children and everyone in between.
The new Sunday at 11:00 Hatha Yoga class instructor, Steven, is excellent. I really enjoy that class!
In person and at home exercise classes. Lots of cardio equipment, and all around good vibes
Family atmosphere
Friendly and helpful atmosphere.
I like the community focus and all the different services and programs the Y has to offer a spectrum of diverse people.
Variety of exercise programs and commitment to serving the larger community
Weight machines.
Love the Group Exercises and the Y as a whole!
Great overall experience
I find your registration a little challenging, but your programs are good and our family enjoys being members.
What I really like is the space on level 2 where the workout equipment is. The open floor plan makes it easier to do different things and not feel you’re in different spaces.
