That
I love the instructors especially Joy (core) and Linda (spin)....and of course Rob, the Wellness Director Joy and Linda are instructors from my home Y South Dekalb that is not open at this time. It's good that I can getting the good instruction from them at East Lake which is a distance from SDY but worth it for these classes. They challenge me with the constantly changing exercise routines that they do. The Staff is very cordial and professional. Love the aquatic area - Lifeguards are good especially Phil. The equipment may be down for one reason or another but they work to get it back up promptly.
great class options
Workout group classes
Classes are fun!
As a new member, I am very pleased with the Y. It has everything that I wanted in a fitness facility - a warm pool, hot tub, sauna, and elevated indoor track. The front reception desk personnel are most helpful!
P.S. The water extraction machine in the men's locker room is broken.
Fun and affordable!

I use the fitness center and walk the track
I love the atmosphere and all of the activities it provides there!
I seriously love East Lake YMCA! It's so much larger than Wade Walker where I usually go which allows me to still properly socially distance while I still try to practice covid prevention. I really love that East Lake has a room for stretching and has foam rollers! I would like to see if East Lake could put the mats in the stretching room upstairs on the wall like they are in the cardio area instead of just throwing them on the floor. I would also like to ask for slam balls for working out if possible. Other than that, East Lake is great and I am enjoying my time spent there.
Childcare, pool, community programs
The pool facilities were very nice nice, and I really liked the comfortable family vibe! My kids and I had a nice, relaxing day!

I like using the pool for my exercise.
