Member Testimonials
I love the indoor cycling classes. All of the instructors have great energy and play great music. The classes are fun and I don't feel like I'm working out.
I really appreciate the outdoor classes you’re offering. The instructors for BP, Step and Core are excellent.
The Decatur Family Y is our home-away-from-home! The Y team is always friendly, enthusiastic and caring. Ellen and I are honored to be associated with this outstanding organization. -- John Yates

I like the Pilates classes and the pool. My husband likes the workout room with elliptical and weight machines.
Convenient, safe to you, friendly staff.
In spite of current restrictions the Decatur Y has control offer a variety of options in the form of fitness activities inside and outside. All front desk /wellness desk staff and class instructors are we.coming to everyone. The management team has been receptive to comments and suggestions from members - notably since the “reopening” from the 2020 Y shutdown.
Secondly, the variety of fitness classes offers something just about every day for any activity involving a group activity someone could/would need or want.
I just like how friendly and helpful everyone is.
I haven’t participated enough. I mostly do the treadmill, bike and some weight machines. Unfortunately I don’t plan and look ahead to know what is going on well. I usually find out what’s going on when I get there & it’s too late to jump in.
The instructors and classes are consistently excellent. Everyone of the staff is helpful, polite and friendly.
My Decatur Y is exceptionally clean and always has been. I’ve been a member for eleven years. I love my Y!
I just love the convenience. Every class we have taken has been outstanding.
I like the senior programs. I enjoy the swim, water exercise classes.
We’ve been members for many years and love many of the programs.
I really enjoy my experience at the Decatur YMCA. I find the facilities to be clean and inviting.
Grateful to be safe and able to workout! Thank you!
Programs are all inclusive and friendly.
I need good customer service
The Y has become a world class facility with great leadership. The handling of the cleaning of the equipment during the original pandemic was extraordinary. I would like to say that sometimes it takes a little long to get the machines fixed especially if one of only three is broken. One other thing. Signing the waiver when you check it is a waste of time. Don’t we sign a waiver when we join the Y? 99% of the people do not even read it.
The instructors - especially Sudie and Sarah!
Really good teachers
