Member Testimonials
The East Like is a wonderful blend of fitness, familiarity, fun and family. Sometimes they are on point, sometimes not so much. Their group fitness classes, at least Zumba and core, are stellar. The basketball leagues for children could use a little more organization but always feel like the heart is in the right place. The desk staff, both reception and membership, are always friendly and personable (something I can't say for Decatur Y).
Love Barbie's Tuesday and Thursday classes for Strenght; Spin classes and the yoga class on Wed. (Susan?). Treadmills are great and it's nice to do laps in the pool. I do think the free weight area could be larger - it's really too cramped to go over and work out.
Excellent Equipment and a very clean facility..
Free daycare while you workout and outdoor pool are the best.
The pool -- right temperature, great ambiance
I enjoy the variety of activities and frequency.
I love the variety of classes and times. I do wish there was a place for stretching or even to do your own kind of HIIT type workouts, there just isn't space in the weight area.
I like that you have water aerobics classes several times a week.
We love the outdoor pool!
The classes and teachers are awesome! Everyone who works at the East Lake YMCA is so friendly and nice.
Pool is great
I think there should be more group class offerings between 5:00pm and 6pm on Mondays and Thursdays.
Thank you,
There is a wide variety of programs and activities in which I can participate to keep me physically fit. The hours of operation are excellent and there are coaches available to give me helpful advise when needed.
The Classes, The Instructors and The Staff. It’s a pleasure being a member of East Lake YMCA!
Good instructors for group exercise classes
This location is very laid back and has a community feel. The people at this location are much friendlier than at the Decatur location. It is also more kid-friendly. The pool is great!
Everything
I love the atmosphere and upbeat attitude of the employees. I love how people smile and talk to one another. The Y is clean! Towels have been a plus!
Love the variety of classes that are offered. Stephanie, Grace and Nicole (Water Aerobics, HIIT Water Aerobics and Zumba instructors) are simply the best! The women's locker room could do with some updating (and a deep cleaning), though. The facilities, especially the showers, are so much nicer at the Decatur location.
I love love love the yoga classes.
The age diversity
The kids camps
I like how many class you offer and how consistent you've been over the years
variety to choose from for all ages
I love the East Lake YMCA! It’s got fun and fitness for my whole family. From senior activities and exercise classes for my mom to basketball leagues for my son to Zumba and lap swimming for me! -Erikka Mitchell
Not costly. need two pools on for kids one for adults
Friendly and helpful staff. Towels.
The Y provides a safe and clean environment for our daily workout experience. We have a variety of classes with great instructors. I would like to suggest adding a Pilate class with a different instructor.
I love that it is very personable and family oriented. The equipment is well kept and always available. Hours of operation is great for my schedule and very flexible.
I enjoy the gym and the friends I've meet there. I've been a member off and on since 2001
I love the location, facilities, and the professional staff. Also, and more importantly, the variety of activities for my age group and level of fitness.
No idea about programs and activities.
