Member Testimonials
The daycare is amazing. We have 3 kids and drop them off frequently while using the facilities. Then we take them to the playground or pool depending on time of year. It's very convenient and important to us. We need all the help we can get with 3 kids!!!
You offer a variety of classes from which to choose. I also appreciate the classes available for elder members.
The wide variety
Great staff, reasonable prices. We have been coming to the Carl Sanders YMCA for 13 years with our kids and can't imagine a better place for us.
My kids swim on the swim team and the program was drastically improved from last year.
I don’t use any programs, but I appreciate the cleanliness of the facility and the quality of the equipment. I also REALLY appreciate the towels.
Tennis, classes, friendly front desk
Would love to see another peloton but so happy that y’all got two so don’t mean to be greedy!
Friendly staff
Comfortable working out even though you’re older
Chris the spinning instructor is fabulous
Well run.
Please cover the pool fountain openings where water shoots out with screen so that birds won’t build nests inside the openings. You wash away the bird nests and baby birds when the water is turned on.
Please put the correct time on the clock in the spin room. Thank you!
Staff is very friendly & responsive to my needs. I love the youth swimming classes, school break and summer break programs. The facilities are very clean & there is plenty of parking!
Variety for all levels of ability.
Varied programs/classes; good instructors
The indoor pool for lap swim! And easy access to Trx equipment
I love 10:30 90 min water class, T & Th
I like 9:15 water class. Fri
I wish M & W were later. 8:30 is just too early. Maybe 9;30???
The classes : so m
We all love Christina M from the Cowart Y when she teaches the group water fitness classes in the buckhead location . The attendance numbers speaks for themselves. the new lady Jan on Tuesdays just hasn’t developed the routine for teaching with fun, charisma or energy. It seems more like she wants to be liked & tells us how good we are doing. But itn’t what we need . We want to be motivated not patted on the backs with a smile, not reading a menu of routeins to follow. You cannot teach charisma no matter how hard she tries she is simply not even simular to Christina M’s classes in effort or workout. Please get Christina M back on Tuesday & Thursdays & don’t Change it. Keep her there. You could have a nice class on Monday Wednesdays & Friday’s with Jan at 10:30 class time but don’t mess up Christina being there on Tuesdays & Thursday's .
Spin class!
Good facilities, good exercise programs, well run
The clay tennis courts are fantastic!
Currently, our 6-year-old son is taking private swimming lessons from Henry. His no nonsense approach and patience are exactly what Jack needed in an instructor. He has gained confidence and learned so much from Henry - we couldn’t be happier. Thank you!
enjoy the community atmosphere, great facility and friendly people
Variety of equipment and classes offered. However I wish there were more elliptical machines. Many times there is a wait while the treadmills don't have waits. Even a few more would be helpful
Classes are great. Facility is top notch. Staff is friendly and professional. I don’t have a need for childcare, but I understand it’s a real selling point for the facility!
Thank you for replacing the shower heads in the men's locker room!
Yoga
The variety of workout classes, friendly staff and clean facilities.
Group exercise classes
Stretch and gentle and restorative Yoga, 55+ class options, tennis
Love your pool. Locker rooms and shower area are always clean and well-maintained.
you have towel service
the classes are pretty good and the pool does not poison the air and water as much as the other Y locations. I can barely breathe once I walk in the East lake and Decatur Y from the fumes of the pool chemicals.

Love the coach approach- trainers are great!
