I love the wide variety of classes offered at this YMCA. One thing that I often struggle with is parking :-( I've turned away many times because no parking was available.
Childcare center is great! Especially Ms Delaney.
Some room for improvement as have noticed a couple times a staff member in the childcare center looking pretty disengaged (eg, sitting in rocking chair sleeping).
Otherwise, have really appreciated knowing my child is in safe care while I am working out. Thank you!
I have recently rejoined this January. I’ve taken a few classes, used the treadmill, used the kettlebells once, and played pickleball once. The classes are fairly easy to signup for. I hope to do more kettlebell workouts and play pickleball more often when weather is too harsh for outdoor pickleball play
I like the new exercise equipment!
Great facility, great staff, great members.
Love the water programs! All instructors great!
Experienced instructors and great workouts.
Our whole family can find activities to enjoy! My son recently joined the Atlanta Track Club and has been encouraging me to run on the treadmills during his off season. It’s awesome.
I cannot say enough positive things about my personal trainer, Andrew Kwasnieski, at the Decatur YMCA. He is exceptional in working with the members (especially older adults) and truly understands the challenges that come with joint issues, arthritis, and mobility limitations. He is patient, knowledgeable, and constantly attentive to my individual needs and comfort level.
Each workout is thoughtfully planned, safe, and effective, while still being engaging and motivating. Because of his expertise and coaching, I have made tremendous progress with my overall health, strength, and confidence. I feel better physically and more capable in my daily life than I have in a long time.
Andrew is truly the best, and I am incredibly grateful for his dedication and professionalism. He is a tremendous asset to Decatur YMCA.
Great equipment; lots of diversity in programs and activities; great and positive culture.
I like the accessible weight and training room. And the free orientation session.
Thank you for the new machine in the wellness center. I assume that after installing the new machine, you would install new flooring. I appreciate the friendliness and helpfulness of most YMCA employees.
You tend to be open and available whatever the issue going on! The gym is great childcare and facilities are wonderful and truly a home like atmosphere for all ages
I'm amazed at the improvements in this Y location since the last time I frequented it, years ago. It is now so full of classes, with a schedule that would accomodate anyone. The staff is polite and so helpful. The instructors are great. It is clean.
Staff and variety of exercise classes.
The variety of locations and classes. I learned that some YMCAs open at 5:00am. That was a game changer. I want to try all of them near me now.
Zumba!
I would love more Zumba opportunities. And yoga!
Good equipment, good hours available, good people on staff.
Many of the instructors are excellent and inspiring.
I like the large assortment of machines available in the fitness center.
