Member Testimonials
The instructors are fun, don't take themselves too seriously and I almost always have a great workout!
I recently joined, yet from what I have seen so far, all of the programs and activities are well planned out with the needs of the community as a priority.
The atmosphere at the Y is what I appreciate the most. Members and staff are always friendly and supportive. It is family-friendly and appeals to everyone. The facilities are well-maintained and clean. There are also activities and programs for all interests, knowledge, and ability levels.
The best classes with the best instructor’s
I have been a member of the Andrew and Walter Young YMCA since 2004 when we moved back to Atlanta. We were members of the Habersham YMCA for in Savannah since the early 1990's.
There is a lot a like about the Andrew and Walter Young YMCA. I like the exercise room that is well equipped. There are also numerous group fitness options that are available. I am also thankful that the Y offers day care, youth empowerment, food bank, health education and community outreach. If the Andrew and Walter Young YMCA was not longer here the SW Atlanta Community would miss its presence.

I’ve always loved the YMCA’s programs and activities because they create a real sense of community. I grew up in the Y, so it was one of my favorite places to be after school. Even now, I still enjoy coming for the workouts, the pool, the sauna, the steam room, and the positive atmosphere. It’s a place that’s been part of my life for years, and I appreciate how it continues to support health, connection, and growth.
Great atmosphere and a variety of exercise equipment
I like how friendly the staff is. The facility is always clean and at this location I can have access to the whirlpool steam room in other water works all the time when I’m there.
