Member Testimonials
The instructors - the good ones, not the bad ones like Swindia, who is always late to start class and then treats it like her own personal show.
Every thing you all do is very very great , but above all your employees are very very nice , caring , & loving people , I did not ever meet one unfriendly ...... Nicola H. Ayoub
Classes, communication, aka texts, emails, about class changes.
Great classes!
Great gym!
1-Think that they should add a walk in dry sauna or inferred sauna.
2-a cold plunge system
I love the group classes
Variety. I would live to see more yoga classes though.
Family friendly, staff is always courteous and helpful, long hours open give lots of options, great community.
The swimming pool is excellent and I hope to join one of the Yoga classes next week or this weekend.
I like the group fitness classes like Body Pump and Yoga. The members of the Y are such a nice group of people.
The Decatur Y is a great place to socialize and to stay healthy too!
Love the 45 minute classes and 30 minute classes (Jessica’s Core class and Joseph’s functional fitness classes.)
Wish you had more body burn classes and less dance classes though.
I love all the yoga classes and the instructors are excellent. I try to go at least four times a week. I’ve made many new friends there. They love the instructors and the classes too. I also do the exercise machines—treadmill and the elliptical. It’s a great place to get a great workout. And everyone is very friendly and helpful.
Great facility & friendly staff - healthy atmosphere.
Flexibility, long hours open.
Everything
Very good swimming pools; friendly staff.
Clean facility , welcoming and helpful staff
I love Miriam's water challenge class. I wish she could add another class on Friday. It is perfect strength and core training for seniors. Is it possible to add another class?
How gaged the staff are with the classes or any concerns about anything.
Excellent, professional instructors of multiple classes each day. Reasonable physical plant. Plenty of parking with sufficient number of Handicapped slots. Staff and instructors helpful and friendly. Suitable accommodations for all levels. Welcoming, and participates in community-supporting activities- e.g., coat food, and food drives. Glad to be a long-term member.
Friendly & helpful staff.
I really enjoy the variety of classes (although it seems like there are fewer classes offered over the last month), the variety of strength machines and definitely the coach program! The staff is so friendly and helpful.
The staff: Terrance, Shelly and Ruth
Swimming pool and spin classes
Every things
They rock! Good instructors, great classes, wonderful community!
I like the variety of programs and the pool is a huge plus
I’ve only done the water Pilates class but enjoyed it.
I love the community experience of the Decatur YMCA. The classes are great and most of the staff is helpful and friendly. The front desk aaaociatea may need some customer service training.
Class offerings and facility open hours are great. Many folks use the indoor pool
The trainers in the gym will meet with you one-on-one to set up an exercise plan for you and then provide follow ups and check in! Ruth is AMAZING and knowledgeable.
Only complaints....1. No outdoor pickleball courts (feel like there is room in back parking lot)
2) the cost is a bit steep, but when you consider the impact to the community, it does seem worth it.
