Member Testimonials
I like the fact that you've kept the Y open and had good COVID protocols.
You've helped me to continue to work out and remain healthy. About the only thing I use at the Y are the Natulas machines, but my wife takes the yoga classes. We have both really benefited from the Y during the pandemic.
I’m a Zumba girl, especially ones taught by longtime teacher Jennifer Mayo. Decatur has great staff, wonderful atmosphere 👍🏻
Kimberly, the hatha yoga instructor, is just amazing!
I only swim, so I don't know about other facilities.
Love the staff. Each one has been a 10 out of ten whether it was indoors out out in the parking lot.
I LOVE working out in the Parking lot…even in below freezing temps.
Sometimes feel frustration when my Schwann data pad is not functioning properly. I have learned to tolerate it but feel disappointed that I cannot accurately monitor my work on a cycling work out.
I like the hours of the facility. I would prefer a more strict enforcement of the members-only policy. On the weekends, people often bypass the check-in desk without being challenged for membership status.
Variety of programs and dedicated staff.
For all ages.
We love the Y! Thank you for doing an awesome job in ramping services back up!
Overall a great place, truly. But the lap lane reservation tool is too challenging to use. Having to scroll through the entire metro Y sites, resign in and then navigate the times is just not good technology.
Love the classes! Great workout, supportive environment, good options daily
The classes are terrific and the instructors care about helping participant at their own level. I think the equipment is top rate and I like the variety of work-out opportunities.
I love the staff who deliver the programs. They give individualized care to each participant and it doesn't matter your skill level. They help everyone achieve to their ability.
Group classes
Stair Masters, peloton bikes with free account, swimming pool, huge shower space, big locker rooms, family locker oomph, basketball court, numerous group programs, volunteer events
Love the instructors and community. Directors are amazing as well
Great staff
Great equipment
Generous hours daily
I come for the water aerobics classes . I would like to see a morning class offered every morning M-F . Staff is so friendly and helpful.
Everything
Body pump outdoors and spin are my favs. Great instructors.
The diversity of classes and professionalism of the instructors
Awesome Staff, awesome instructors and group exercise classes of cycling and bodypump. Early pre dawn classes for the go to work crowd who can’t do mid morning or midday classes.
The variety and availability. In these covid times I particularly appreciate the attention to cleanliness and personal safety.
Pool is easy to access and sign up guarantees that you can swim.
Parkinson's desease activities. Great class leaders.
Very friendly and family-oriented environment. It has always been a safe space for our kids. From t-ball, to basketball, soccer to gymnastics, Advanced Leadership Academy to Teen Leaders Club - the Decatur Family Y has played a significant role in their lives!
Love The 45 minute classes. Strength cycle barre.
Hope you keep the classes at 45 minutes. It’s a perfect amount of time.
Y makes appropriate efforts to protect everyone from infectious disease, and provides both indoor, and outdoor classes. Friendly, professional staff.
I very much like that swimmers are able to reserve lanes at specific times and that some of those lanes are exclusively set aside for one swimmer only. If we go back to an all-shared lane system i'm afraid i'll give up my membership - i just don't ever want to swim that close to anyone again.
Nice variety. Easy for first timers to join and learn.

I like exercising on good equipment where there are pleasant fellow sufferers to make it not such a dismal task.
