Member Testimonials
Our family really enjoys the aquatic center at both the Youth Center and the main building! Our twins enjoy the Traditional Day Camp and the swimming lessons! Everyone is always so professional and courteous! We love our East Lake YMCA!
We love Eastlake Y, the staff and the facility. And we like the other members, some we met at the Y 15 years ago. I like that it is connected to a school and in the urban area. Thank you.
I love the classes, the teachers, and the other people who participate.
Location and ease of getting there. Relative size of classes.
The outdoor pool is awesome.

Pool
Love the space in the cycle room. I've been away since March 2020 so it wS good to be back in the facility.
Our family enjoys the YMCA! We swim, play, exercise and utilize the summer program. It’s our hangout where we feel safe and supported.
Great classes and helpful staff.
Family friendly swimming for the entire family!
THE POOL IS AMAZING! The staff, the cleanliness, it's so great
The variety of activities and the number of schedule options.
I love all the group dance classes. But I must take a moment to commend Nicole, who teaches Fierce Funk. Her pedagogy is amazing! She makes everyone feel included and capable-- no matter our age or size. I actually use some of the teaching techniques in the English classes I teach at Emory! PLEASE tell her how amazing she is!
Clean , friendly
The classes as the East Lake location are amazing along with the staff.
Being able to schedule a lane to swim.
Everything
Having an indoor and outdoor pool is amazing! And having childcare is a big reason my family joined!
Newness of facility Location Move weight machine back to first floor Increase number of recumbent bikes
Lessons start and end on time. Instructors have a great personality and seems to care about the kids.
Nice options at the gym, classes and pools
I appreciate the emphasis on health, mobility, and safety rather than thinness or weight loss. The coaches are all awesome and the staff are super helpful, friendly, and welcoming.
Swimming is great! In both pools. And people are friendly. It feels like a very nice community.
Very friendly staff. Love the dance classes
I love the group exercise classes. My favorites are Fierce Funk with Nicole and Zumba Gold with Marquetta. I also like spin with Stephen. The issue I would like is: 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.
The variety of classes which include a choice of fitness levels from low to high intensity. Also, the coach approach to increase strength.
It has a lot of different programs and activities for both adults and children to attend!
pool and gym. place is quiet and clean.
Greg is the best! Not only is he a good coach, he is super nice and really makes you feel that he is glad you are there.
I also love Nicole’s Fierce Funk, but it would be great if it was offered at 6 instead of 7. I can’t eat right before that kind of workout but eating afterwards is getting late.

I liked the cleaniness of the facilty and the staff were attentive and helpful
