Member Testimonials
I like the variety of healthy activities the YMCA provides for me and my family.
Peloton bike and cross fit room. Love the indoor and outdoor pools
Daycare, pool, and Peloton is pretty much all I use at East Lake.
I wish there wasn't permanently a shortage of Peloton bikes due to machines breaking.
I also wish it wasn't so cold in the dressing room. It makes getting out of the pool a miserable experience with my toddler.
A lot of options
I love the variety and there are great instructors. There really is a sense of community. My request would be for more cycling classes past 5PM. It's hard to get to a 5PM practice when people typically get off work around that time.
The cleanliness of the workout rooms and group instructors.
It is very conveniently located. Like the fact that there are quite appropriate for seniors interested in long term wellness.
I enjoy this YMCA.
I'm having a great time at this Y. I like most of the classes I'm taken. (I'm a class kind of person.) I'm so excited to have stumbled into the AOA, and that the members have been gracious enough to support my involvement.
My only nitpicky complaints are that some of the teachers play the SAME music every class and that is really tiresome. I also wish there were some step classes midday. I'd like to see the YMCA website for the East Lake YMCA activated. If you go there and click the button to register, it goes to a page that says "there are no programs at this time". Also, it should be brought to new member's attention as they become involved in the Y. Or, it will help them become more involved in the Y community.
I feel like this Y is a real community gem and I'm so happy I finally got myself off of the sofa and signed up to come in and move!!
I can't really say since I haven't to date used the programs and activities, though I really want to play Pickleball at some point soon.
I like the variety of classes provided. The ease for a working parent.
All
Flexible schedule available
Pool is too cold
I love the fierce funk class and the outdoor pool
I really enjoy being able to work out in a clean environment. I am always seeing a lady or two working to keep the facility clean. However, they can not do this by themselves. I suggest the team/employees should encourage all to be diligent about wiping down equipment before and after use. I have never seen an employee encourage members to wipe down anything!
I have arthritis in my feet and ankles and I love swimming in the "lagoon" with my daughters. We also enjoy the whirlpool. Everyone who works at the Y is always polite.
Cowart member that visited East Lake this weekend. Really enjoyed Shannon D two group workouts...great vibe and playlist.
My daughter is taking swim lessons. The Aquatics director, Ms Raquel and her teacher, Coach B are both awesome!!!
I go the the East Lake Y for the weight room. It is well lit, immaculately clean and the equipment well spaced out.
I wish there were more aqua aerobics classes offered, particularly high intensity ones.
The small offerings for seniors.
It was my first time coming to the East Lake YMCA. The set up was very nice and neat. I took the fierce funk class, it was fun and challenging. Definitely will return.
I really love the focus on whole person and family wellness.
Convenient
Professional
Economical
I like that kids can swim in the pool.
My 5 year old is taking swim lessons and everyone is great.
They are tailored for different age groups and fitness levels. Staff is always available and ready to assist to help me achieve fitness goals.
People are friendly and staff is very helpful and supportive.
You have a lot of space for working out in different ways.
Love the senior strength and cardio classes! Instructors are great!
