Member Testimonials
Great facilities, good hours, nice people, good comradery through unpleasant personal exercises.
great classes, great teachers, friend/family like atmosphere, clean and well maintained
The equipment is easily accessible with no waiting.
Great folks. The Decatur Y has been a life-saver for me during Covid. My Emory gym closed and is still closed. (Not sure I am going back.)
The lap-swim, the excellent classes, and pickle ball have been favorites. And the extra safety you guys have in place provided confidence that we are all as safe as possible.
Keep up the good work.
I like the family atmosphere at the Y. However, I do think the members should have input about the new programs and activities that are being implemented. I attend the Monday afternoon Gentle Yoga class and it was a well-attended class. Now that it has been changed to Family Yoga, the attendance has dropped dramatically.
Love the trainers, love the staff and love the facilities.
Excellent activities and programs !!
I enjoy the wide availability of organized classes. That's what I need - structure.
Friendly place to work out
Adult classes
The classes. It’s my favorite way to exercise and I appreciate the diversity of times and types. I wish there were more class offerings at the Wade Walker location.
I really appreciate that you have put the dividers between the cardio machines. I hope you leave them there!
Clean, organize, family -friends oriented and a great staff
My visits to the Y have been great - the staff is extremely helpful and attentive. My 1.5 year old son started swim lessons and they have been perfect. He had a great time.
The Decatur YMCA policies during the pandemic ensure the safety of all members.
The wide array of group exercise classes is top-notch! The community-centered mission fosters an optimistic approach to life and wellbeing. The Y plays an important role in my life.

PS. Yoga and Pilates are my favorite

Thank you again, for all of your interest and
