The outdoor pool, weight room at East Lake.
Like the variety of classes, AND the functional training room. That room is a game changer!
Everything! A great place for all families.
The gym equipment is clean, the outdoor pool is nice. Everyone is friendly and helpful.
Easy lane reservation, pool and rooms clean. Nice staff
Awesome spin fusion class with Linda at the East Lake Y, what a special person and group of people.
Everything!!
Great staff and the outdoor pool!
This facility is very professionally run and so immaculately clean, that's very important to me. It has been that way since I joined 8-10 years ago. I retired a week ago, so I look forward to enjoying my gym membership even more. You don't need to change a thing...just keep on keeping on!!
I like the new spacing for safety and how they cater to the needs of all members.
Diversity of members
Clean pool
Friendly staff
My Grandson started taking swimming lessons at east lake. One of the best experience ever we love coming here to this branch other branches are not as accommodating as this one . Bad experience at one no need to mention the branch we will just stick with this one….
Will the Westley Chapel location ever open up?
The variety of options!
Love the facility. We originally used Decatur Family, but when we realized East Lake offers everything but without the crowds, it was obvious that we should switch to using it as our primary location.
Variety
I like how different programs for working out are offered. Any king of exercise is available. I especially like the fact you can make reservations for the pool.
Recently I enjoyed the indoor walking track. Prepandemic I enjoyed the group exercise classes, Zumba and Barre.
I like that there are activities that appeal to different age groups.
All
Nice facility, clean, spacious so i don't feel concerned about others being close while I'm still being cautious about covid, plus i like the screens between the cardio equipment.
The staff is warm, helpful, friendly, and fun! I’m grateful for the whole East Lake YMCA community! It’s like a home away from home.
Great instructors, work-out space and amenities.Personable staff.
Peloton bikes and the functional fitness room
Varied activities and great instructors! And more than anything, the friendly atmosphere. I’ve had many days when I came to the Y not feeling very good about myself, but by the time I left I was smiling ear to ear because people are so nice. I don’t know how you did it but you’ve created a very welcoming culture. Bravo!
I have been a member of this Y for nearly 10 years and I have enjoyed a variety of programs and activities over the years. I am also a member of the active older adult (AOA) program I am also an active swimmer and I enjoy being able to reserve a lap lane. I also appreciate all the staff members. They are always friendly and are very efficient and responsive to my needs or issues. While my rating indicates that there is always room for improvement in any organization, I am satisfied with the programs offered by this Y.
Instructors are Excellent!
Member for over 12 years
Use facilities at both Decatur and East Lake YMCA at least five times per week
I am a physician but I learn most of what I need to know from sitting in the sauna at East Lake taking in all the stories, adventures, mishaps, information about weddings and deaths and how to cure diabetes: drink this, eat that vitamin, rub this or that cream on your skin and of course one of my favorites is to drink Mogen David 20/20 wine 2 to 3 times weekly to help one’s libido and of course cure cancer!
BTW the best times to sit in the sauna are Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 3 to 5.
Almost all the staff including management all the time and at at both facilities are wonderful friendly and responsive.
I would not think of ever changing.
I like being able to schedule a swim time.
Fun thing to do for the whole family ! And the employee are always polite and helpful
