Member Testimonials
love all the classes i've been to! would love to see 1-hour classes return.
Aquatic classes are great. I just relocated to the area but love what you offer.
I like the senior programs
The facility is always clean and the staff are friendly.
Thank you
My three daughters have had a blast at the YMCA camps. My twins came home after Triple Threat doing cartwheels all over the house. They also sing and dance to the songs that the whole camp participates in during the week. My three are on the younger side, and they are so proud when they pass the swim test on swim day. Thank you for offering such fun programming for our children!
I'm an active senior. I began exercising after retirement and I'm hooked. I take several yoga classes and the instructors are excellent. They each have different routines geared to keep all parts of your body working at their best. If you want to stay healthy, keep your mobility, and feel young, I highly recommend trying yoga. Also, senior strength classes are great to maintain bone density. Many members love the swimming and cycling classes. The staff is very helpful and always welcoming. And, you'll make some wonderful friends.

Love Kristen’s spin class. Also enjoy the pool, but couldn’t book a lane last week. My youngest loves playing basketball in the gym on weekends.
Look forward to getting in more this summer:)
Swimming
Good variety of classes and equipment. Still need more older adult classes and better accommodations for older adults.
Everything is great and we are thankful.

The variety of exercise programs to include swimming. The facilities are clean and the staff members are very helpful.
I am a new member. After Touring the facility, I quit the gym I will head been with and signed up. Initially,I joined because it is close to my home. I’ve just discovered….It is a happy place to be! The atmosphere is easygoing..the facility is always clean. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. There are a variety of classes and activities for every fitness level. It’s the best decision I’ve made in a while.

Helpful staff
Range of equipment
Hours that you are open
Variety of classes
Water intervals and Fierce Funk are my reason to be there!
I do think the lifeguards need to be more mindful. They should not be allowed to play with their phones when they’re supposed to be watching the swimmers.
I love classes - there are so many to chose from and the instructors are very good. I love the community - ethnic diversity, age diversity and friendly staff. Also I love the opportunities to volunteer and help others.
I love the classes, the camaraderie and support. I feel like if I ever needed anything, I could turn to people at the Y and they would help.
The variety of classes is great - as is the caliber of instruction. The staff are very friendly too.
We visited two different days while on vacation. Our home Y is the Summit in Newnan, GA.
The Decatur Family Y is clean and attractive, and the staff are super friendly.
A special shout-out to Darvin (sp?) who went out of his way to show us the equipment and also tell us about the outdoor pool at East Lake, which we very much enjoyed.
A great experience, thank you!
I like the gym.
