I like that the facility is clean. The staff is friendly. The times that the facility is open are hours that are good for all people (whether they are working or not). I also like that this facility offers a Water Aerobics class (on Sundays at 1:30pm) at time when people who work during the week can go. I just wish that this facility also offered Water Aerobics on Saturdays around the same time because that Water Aerobics class on Sundays fills up fast (Perhaps if we were allowed to sign up for the class weeks in advance this might help).
The many classes offered
Very nice facility with updated equipment.
We haven’t participated in any activities yet but we love to swim
Some very good instructors. I only do group classes and I especially appreciate Nicole and Marquetta. Is there any way you could add Y Body Burn, Dance Party, or Zumba Gold on Friday mornings?
Your women's locker room is kept clean. However, sometimes the soap dispensers are empty and I only find that out after I've begun the shower. Also some other maintenance is needed, such as fixing absetn shower shelves or dripping faucets. I know funds may be tight and you probably already know this. The lockers are pretty banged up and some have damaged lock inserts so they can't be locked. If you ever replace the lockers themselves, a wider one like Decatur Y has would be appreciated. Lastly -- is there any way you could have an electric outlet installed near the counter along the back wall of the sink area? Then we can use hair dryers away from the sinks and trash openings.
Thanks for all you do.
I like the variety of classes!
I love the classes! My favorite class is called pound on Thursday. I get to be a drummer for a brief time. We use drum sticks and get one of the best workouts ever. The free weights are amazing. The staff is excellent and all the patrons are extremely friendly and encouraging. They have absolutely everything from swimming to aerobics!
Water aerobics Tuesday’s and Thursdays
FIERCE FUNK!!! Especially with Nicole. It’s the best.
Greg is also a really nice coach. His smile lights up the room and he is so encouraging.
Also I like that there are serious athletes in the weight room. It’s a good atmosphere- inspiring and yet friendly.
I also want to say that I find I’m happier to go to Eastlake because it’s more diverse than Decatur Y.
I have found a great community of fellow members who share the same passion for working out in a family friendly environment.
Very pleased with the opportunities and classes we have utilized to date! Thank you!
I like that the program have so many exercise machines that you can choose from.
The zumba class
Love Ms Linda's Spin class and the Y pickleball. Suggestions. Please have pickleball in the evening as well as the day time hours., including Sat and Sunday!!
I really love the classes. There is something to do for everyone no matter their age or fitness level. The instructors/trainers are great.
Everything. I like the diversity and friendliness of my neighborhood ymca. It’s the best ymca!
I wish you had bodypump (or a clear analogue) so I wouldn’t have to go to Decatur at all, but I am sure there is some kind of licensing involved and it requires a ton of specific equipment. I tried a few things I thought would be like it, but turned out to be like HIIT, which isn’t friendly for my body.
Thank you for all you do.
I love lap swim! the pool is always in good clean condition and the lifeguards are friendly!

Such a great variety of classes.
I’ve enjoyed the barre, core and yoga classes and intend on joining more classes. I appreciate being able to hop on a treadmill whenever I want but need to meet with someone to learn the rest of the equipment.
I only use the pool and I enjoy it 😌
