Classes are great!
I especially like the wellness program. I had the opportunity to meet with a coach for creation of a strength training exercise program which is helping me meet my goals.
I enjoyed watching a yoga instructor with her class. Also I really enjoyed observing a energetic leg kicking class. Awesome!!
Great selection of classes, 8 hours a day. Wonderful instructors.

Group classes. Staff is always very nice
There's something for everyone. I like the workout area; it's roomy and bright and the equipment is kept in good repair. The pool is clean and the water temperature is good for swimming laps. There are a million classes for people of all abilities.
Good facility.
Lacks adequate free weight floor space.
The Decatur YMCA is a great place for the entire family. My kids learned to swim through the excellent instruction and programs offered at the Decatur YMCA. They also played T-ball, baseball, basketball and soccer. They participated in summer camps and we loved how they were kept engaged with the activities offered. We consider the Decatur YMCA part of our family because it kept my entire family engaged with fun activities and also provided a great facility to stay physically fit. We love the Decatur YMCA!
Everything!!

Exercise equipment, group exercise
Variety of classes and awesome instructors
Great equipment and facilities, friendly staff who trains us well.
I enjoy the size of the facility, I don't feel cramped while exercising. Plenty of variety in the machines and free weights helps. I do wish you guys had some kickboxing bags - I love to box, used to teach, and would love to mix up my cardio - I'm not a fan of treadmills.
Courteous, welcoming and helpful staff especially Saphya and Kayla at the front desk. Excellent exercise equipment. Equipment repairs are taken care of in a timely manner. My husband and I workout in the gym most days and it’s always clean and the staff (Doug) is so pleasant.
Variety,
I like the enthusiam and knowledge instructors bring to classes, and their encouragment to modify movements if needed.
I like using the wellness center, both cardio and weight machines, almost every day.

I like the friendly and open atmosphere at the Decatur/DeKalb Y. I do not participate in any of the classes, but I regularly use the work out area. The Fitness Coaches are very accessible and skilled - I like having them around to ask questions and to get feedback from them.
I really appreciate access to the childcare center. The caretakers there are wonderful--I see them really taking an interest in my son and going out of their way to help him develop and enjoy his time there. As a mother, it's truly priceless to know that my son is in good hands so that I can exercise and take a bit of time for my health. Thank you!
