Member Testimonials
well. if anyone is reading. I've been a member since 1985. before COVID i liked walking in the morning on the tract with my fellow Seniors. I miss the sitting area near the window off the track's side. there we could fellowship . I also miss the sitting area in the lobby that was removed. Seniors often sat here after their morning exercises. This was important to us. Some have dropped their membership because of this change and use their Silver Sneaker's card at other facilities in the Greenbriar area.
The availability, convenience and the service from the staff is great!
Variety of programs to appeal to all age groups
Things are slowly getting back to normal. I especially like the dividers that have been placed between the treadmills. Brilliant idea. Thank you so much.
We been with you all for 21 years!! Love it!! from Mike, Deborah and DeAndre Bray
I love this center. Its a family oriented facility
Unfortunately, due to the COVID appearance, I'm not in a position to say what programs the Andrew Young YMCA has operating at this time. However, I would say pre-COVID, there were a lot of integrated programs and a wide variety.
Also, the staff was very helpful and friendly.
I use the weight room mostly but I love it
I think we have the best facility in the metro Atlanta area! All of the programs fit the community we live in.
The variety
I like the pool, especially since I can reserve the lanes.
However, the water is too cold and water is wasted in the showers, because the water doesn't warm up.
Need more teen programs
SENIOR SWIMMING
The staff make the programs and the facilities the best part of coming. It’s the relationships that are built overtime and how the staff are invested in the overall well being of the patrons. Without these beautiful caring souls the “Y“ would just be another space.
Work out
I like the fitness room experience for me and gym for my son. We are going to sign up my daughter for swimming lessons soon and I am excited about that.
ACCESSABLE TO THE COMMUNITY
It’s one of the best pools in the system. Friendly staff
Just what I want! The time for the classes are perfect and the instructors are happy and seem to enjoy teaching the class. I love the fact that I can sign up for classes on line.
Meeting new people that is there reaching for the same goal; sharing information, new friends and I love coming to the Y. I will be glad when everything return back to normal. At this moment aerobic classes is three days a week, with only eight at a time. I’m waiting to see all my friends again. One more thing why the steam room still close, can’t we go in one at a time. Just a suggestion
I like the group exercise and the safety guideline put in place for COVID 19.
The swimming pool. It's one of the deepest in Atlanta and should be opened on Sundays.
Love the people and the the life guards Jonathan and Coach Ilonga always accommodating
I truly enjoy Joyce's cardio classes. She always engage the entire class making us feel included - "Great Class".
I use the Y primarily for swimming and in addition to the fact that the pool is well maintained and staffed, I like the idea of being able to reserve a lane when I want it. I also play basketball occasionally and like the fact that I can use find space on the courts to do so.
I love that place very clean and organized
There is a variety of option where all age groups can participate. The coaches are commited to work with you and taylor the propgram all all ages.
Family and faith base
The Safety of the pool so we can continue to swim.

THANKS TO EACH OF YOU [YMCA PERSONNEL STAFF] WHO BRAVED THE PANDEMIC AND PARTICIPATED IN THE YMCA REOPENING. I'M SURE THIS WAS A HARD DECISION TO PUT ASIDE YOUR PERSONAL FEARS AND RETURN TO AN UNCERTAIN ADMINISTRATION. ALTHOUGH SOME AREAS ARE STILL NOT OPEN I FEEL ASSURED ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE ALL ACTIVITIES RETURN AND OUR SAFETY WILL BE KEY IN YOUR DECISION MAKING.
AGAIN, THANKS TO EACH OF YOU...
