Great classes and great instructors
The swim and exercise classes
The Andrew & Walter Young YMCA is a family friend place that offers a huge variety of swim, fitness exercise and classes for all ages and all levels of fitness. There is always something to do at the Young YMCA for fitness, health, education on health and important community issues, ie voting and it's fun to be at the Young Y! The Young Y is an integral part of serving the Southwest Atlanta community. Julie M T Walker
Observing myself and those around me the programs and activities stimulate each person toward visible progression.
I love that they are in close proximity to where I live. The members are all like family, and it has been around since I was a little girl in the 70s and has served as a place where residents of the community can use freely. I also love that the children are welcomed and the programs are centered and highlighted around the African-American culture, which is the larger of the demographic group in the community. As a result, there are more instructors and coaches that are of the same make-up and honestly, it is refreshing!
I’d like to see more instructors, coaches, as well as, more classes every day of the week offered. So, please recruit within the community more of the professionalism and passion we experience from our current instructors and coaches.
Kids swim coaches/lessons are AWESOME!!

Feeling safe and meeting new interesting ppl.
The convenience and also the warm personalities of the employees
I'm really pleased with how organized and detailed their schedules are. The staff there work efficiently together to keep your kids safe. Check in/out is always a breeze. The program that I was most happy about was when Bank of America came to educate our scholars on how money works and working towards the goal of saving, financially planning for their future.
I like the unity that the members share, the wellness program and coach, aerobics instructors, the inside track and variety of activities that are offered. I like the kindness of the staff. I like the fact that everyone is treated like they matter.
The price for membership is great!

, I like the programs because they fit my knees and my time.
I like having a nice facility in the neighborhood. I'm ready for the main group activity room to be finished so we do our group exercises in there. It gets too hot in the smaller room.
I enjoy the instructors. all of the ones I have tried at the Walter and Andrew Young YMCA are well-trained and knowledgeable. I enjoy the camaraderie of the Y participants. The staff at this Y are some of the nicest people. I like the facility as well.
