Member Testimonials
Clean, lots of equipment
Great instructors. I only do group classes and I especially appreciate Julia, Jen, and Alekz.
Is there any way you could add Y Body Burn, Dance Party, or Senior Strength & Cardio on Friday mornings?
Your locker room is kept clean. I would ask that the soap dispensers in the showers be checked a little more often; sometimes they are empty and I only find that out after I've begun the shower.
Thanks for all you do.
We just joined so I’m not sure yet
Lots to do! Friendly atmosphere
I like the cleanliness of the facility and friendliness of the staff. One concern I have is how crowded a few of the classes are. A little too close for comfort for me in some! But, it’s good to see everyone exercising!
I really haven’t participated in programs and activities yet. I did use a Dexa machine that was made available and found that very convenient.
Close to house. Good equipment not usually crowded.
good facilities, friendly and very helpful staff
Swimming for myself but I appreciate the work with kids
I really just use the machines. I like the laid back, non-intrusive atmosphere.
I really like the variety of classes that are available. I also love the amount of equipment (cardio and weight equipment) that’s available.
I like everything about the Y, especially the community focus and the attentiveness of the staff. I WAS bummed about the roof leak and the catastrophic damage it caused. Couldn't help but wonder if that could have been avoided by more proactive maintenance.
I am participating in the lap swimming on a regular basis. THANKS for making the scheduling process much more "user friendly!" All the lifeguards are very helpful, as is the staff at the Decatur Family YMCA on Clairmont Road.
Haven't used them yet but there seems to be a good selection
Great mix of classes and nice facilities.
Really enjoying the club as a new member.
This is my go to Y location that I frequent the most. I like the layout of the weight room. They have an excellent selection of weight equipment, and I don't feel cramped for space while working out.
Instructor Dwayne is fantastic.
I will say the YMCA’s in ATL are vey outdated and the workout equipment is old. The machines are covered in sweat and generally dirty. I’m a member at Buckhead and the same exact issue persists— folk do not use towels during workouts (customary in CA) nor are members wiping down machines before and after use.
I’d suggest raising the prices so that you all can provide better service and demand patrons to use towels and to clean the machines after use.
I just think the gym is rly nice and clean and everyone is pleasant. 10/10 would work out again.
Exercise class offerings
Love Bodypump!
Need more equipment though for larger classes. It’s clearly in high demand.
A great place to exercise with caring and knowledgeable staff.
Very welcoming environment. I mostly use the cardio and weight machines and I appreciate that those areas are well-maintained. Also the staff is super friendly and helpful.
My son loves swim lessons and the play room!
Excellent
Water aerobics classes- we need more
I haven’t taken advantage of any classes yet. I do like the quality and quality of exercise equipment.
