I appreciate the Parkinson's classes and hot tub/swimming aquatic area.
I love the light-filled cardio and weight room upstairs.
Simply Awesome!
I have just started going to the YMCA Decatur but I love it. It is such a clean, pretty and convenient place for me to workout. You cannot beat it!
I mainly use the East Lake YMCA, but occasionally take classes at Decatur. It's a lovely, clean, and friendly place.
Water aerobics
Child care!
I like having variety of programming and would enjoy more programs tailored for women and strength building with balance exercises
Friendly staff, plenty of equipment for my needs. Love seeing the children during school breaks. Lots of “old” people to make me feel “normal “.
A great variety of fitness equipment, weights and aerobic machines as well as mats, calisthenics equipment, and lap pool, kept in working condition. Cooling fans and video screens on treadmills make exercising more desirable. Its very nice to have somewhere to go for a sauna and hot tub. Lots of different group classes. I especially like the body pump and water aerobics classes. Like that the changing room has showers and large, no-cost lockers. The building is clean and the staff are friendly. I like the Coach Approach program very much. Although I do not have children, I can see how valuable the play room and different child programs are to families.
Pool and weight room
Feels like family and everyone can be its own self

So many programs for my kids to enjoy! I really love that I can get a workout in while they are enjoying safe, enriching activities.

Everything
I like the instructors, especially Jennifer, who makes the exercise sessions more enjoyable and creative. Also, the staff at the front desk are friendly & always greet the patrons with a smile.
I love the availability of classes on weekends, afternoons, and evenings. The teachers are fantastic (shout out to Kim, Daryl-christopher, and Thomasina), and have made me actually enjoy working out and getting in shape. I've been a member for a year and this is the best I've fest physically in my entire adult life.
