Member Testimonials
Good teachers and class options. Have tried sr strength training, tai chi and gentle yoga. Generally a friendly and welcoming environment.
My favorite aspects are outdoor body pump, the pool, and the welcoming and inclusive vibe
I love the number of cycling exercise classes that are offered! It is convenient having the classes offered at the Decatur YMCA at 6 a.m. Mon-Thursday and at 8 a.m. on the weekends.
Easy app to register for classes.
Way nicer that gym I belonged to before.
i love how many different programs there are and that there’s something for everyone
Mainly the pool
The staff. Great folks.
Clean, quiet and has the equipment I need and use
We were pleased that pickle ball was offered. We will come back to the gym when the floor is repaired. We like the Senior Strength and Gentle Yoga classes.
We have been members for over 10years. Since the remodeling it is a beautiful facility. The machine and spin area looks like a private club! The facility is very well kept. Bathrooms always very clean.
Thank-you.
I use the pool and equipment. I appreciate the beautiful facility, the wonderful pool, and very fine exercise equipment. We haven't yet returned to classes.
So much variety and everyone is welcomed. Judgement-free.
I enjoy the entire facility, especially the pool. But the most special thing that I appreciate is how attentive and nice the staff has been. Everyone seems welcoming and helpful and these days, that goes a long way for me.
Thank you!
Water aerobics, friendly atmosphere, seeing friends.
Swimming
I like Body Pump classes. We have also used the Y for its youth soccer program and swim lessons for my son.
I like the open gym
Convenient location, various activities for all ages and friendly staff.
Just started but something for everyone!
Great exercise classes!
Love water pilates
Excellent Body Pump and group activity instructors!
I have only used the pool. I really appreciate the reserved solo lane. I like how clean the facility and women's locker room usually are.
I enjoy the YMCA Atlanta Metro locations I've visited so far.
The only offering I wish you had added is a pilates reformer class. I also wish at the Decatur location, and you could schedule classes more than 24 hours in advance.
I'm currently setting alarms every day that I can attend.
I have recommended the YMCA to both my friends and family.
Thanks!
Always a friendly face, cost-effective, close by so little driving, family-friendly, You all do alot with a little re staff and funding. I so appreciate my Y. Also, I do drive around to other areas and love to swim at the pools at other YMCA's. It's a great way to feel connected even when away from home. Thanks.
Great facility. Friendly staff.
Love the Body Pump classes - my only gripe is that it’s really difficult to get a spot in the class - any way to increase the number of spots (more bars) so that it’s available to everyone who wants to take the class is able to attend.
Variety
Love gentle yoga classes!

Friendly, helpful employees.
