I love that the programs are well thought out and diverse.
I love the fitness classes...especially Zumba with Nicole Y. She's the reason I keep coming back.
Time convenience
I love the pool
I love the Wednesday morning water aerobics class that Grace is the instructor. The lifeguard Clayton is the best lifeguard that I have encountered. Stephanie is also a great instructor.
I like the variety and that you listen to feedback. Your instructors are better than those at other gyms I've belonged to. It is very easy to reach out to your facility and the response time is excellent!
I love the yoga programs.
It's very helpful for ppl in need of a lot at workout.
It's clean. It's not over crowded. Staff is very friendly. good equipment. I like that kids are welcome. Their are programs for all age groups.
Family friendly. Thinks about moms with multiple kids who still need to work out. Lots of good programs and classes for the kids. I just love it!
Friendly staff and giving back to the community.
all inclusive and always friendly. I never feel judged.
FUn teachers!
I like the Summer Camps for my kids, the Cardio classes and Yoga that is offered and the Outdoor Pool in Summer. I would like to have my eldest check out the Teen Center too at some point, that looks good.
My home facility is Decatur but I also use East Lake for classes on days where I like what's offered there more than Decatur. It's a great facility. The members and staff are wonderful
activities and classes are centered and directed toward different family members interests and abilities.
The Y is all about family
I enjoy the classes and coach approach has been very helpful in guiding me in the right direction to losing weight.
Water aerobics is something I'm actively involved in during the 7pm class with Linda. I would like to see it offered more days of the week and offered earlier than 7pm. I like when the class was offered at 6pm. This allowed me enough time to get from work and allowed me time to get home before it was too late/too dark. With the 7pm class I get home sometimes after 9:00pm.
Enjoying my swimming class. Should be an hour 40 minutes is not enough time to catch breath and learn especially when class is full.
Variety
Friendly, no nonsense place to exercise. I use the lap pool and the spinning classes and love both.
I would say the locker rooms could use a refresh, but I'm happy overall.
I love the sense of community, the commitment of the staff, and the variety of fitness activities available at my East Lake Y.
The pool is clean - the water usually clear and the staff very friendly.
classes and child care
I have recently only been able to use the machines and not take any classes. What I love about my YMCA are the wonderful cheerful helpful delightful people who work there and make my Y a happy place to visit.
Wide variety of programs, friendly staff
the availability during the day and the knowable instructors
Good selection of classes
The play center allows me to take a little bit of time for myself a few times a week.
