Member Testimonials
Excellent exercise instructors. Many choices of class types and times. Very impressed with the many options of other activities for example the options for the 55+ age members!!
I've really enjoyed my membership. I gotten to go to several different classes. All of the instructors are great. The facility is clean and very inviting.
The staff is very welcoming as well those in the lobby as the coaches for the group exercices. The coaches encourage everyone while respecting everyone's limitations.
John-Clayton's move to the YMCA in Decatur is a great loss for the Cowart Family YMCA, but a great gain for his new YMCA. He was always ready to help kindly in any circumstance (such as reserving a place in the swimming pool for me on my iphone, because I had a hard to remember each step to perform on my iphone.
I am sorry that the Cowart Family YMCA does not organize anymore a yearly fundraising through a running race. Miki told me that it was that no enough patrons were interested. I should say that it would be important first to get in contact with the Brookhaven police department to be sure that there is not another race on the same day or previous day (the Duck, Duck, Goose Race at Murphey Candler Park happens also in October and must have coincided, one year, on the same week-end). Then, more people would be interested. Also, one year, the YMCA race was planned on the day of the saving time changed. It is important to take count of this too.
The classes for seniors are frequent on the schedule
Love how committed and positive all the staff are. Facilities and class offerings are also great. It is community at its best!
They are easy.
I'm very happy with the membership and access to all of the YMCA's
I typically use the fitness center and the staff is very friendly and helpful when I have a question. The staff is always walking through the fitness center talking to members and cleaning equipment.
Y is a great place for the whole family! A great people, programs and a perfect place to stay fit.
Personally, I would strongly encourage and recommend everyone who has not been to the Y yet to go and pay a visit and do a tour! You will love it!
Everything! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming 😊
Swimming reservations
I didn’t participate in any programs. Like that this Y is larger and there are so many lap lanes in pool.
Great pool with good lane availability. Nice locker room.
My husband, Kip, absolutely loves the fitness center! He has met great friends there and loves the leaders and coaches and most of all the great supporters of the YNCA!
They are very friendly to those with disabilities, and the Y goes out of its way to help people in need both physically and financially
The staff and instructors are fantastic. They are warm and friendly. They are always willing to give a helping hand
Pickleball … but players are finding it difficult to see in the gym because of the current lighting and the glare through the front windows. We have requested an update to LED fixtures similar to what they did at Fowler about a year ago, and they are asking for a shading application to the lights on the wall coming to the parking lot. It is particularly bad in the fall. Some are beginning to play at the Dunwoody Baptist Wellness Center because of the lighting. It is a pay to play facility.
We like it
Pool
I love the variety sand accessibility of the classes.
Friendly staff
Love the water aerobics. Friendly staff and members (for the most part).
I absolutely love the classes that Lloyd, Mickey Nora, Terri and Heather teach.
It’s a wonderful community to make new friends while staying and getting healthy.
Ease, kindness of employees, community oriented
I do love that the Y is a full service facility, but I only utilize the weights and elliptical at this time. Occasionally I play basketball when the court is open. I enjoy the quiet, unassuming atmosphere and I like how clean everything is.
Nice place to come for water aerobics and things to do for seniors
The group classes and the instructors are very good. I take gentle yoga, senior strength and zumba gold. I also use the equipment several times a week.
I love senior strength. I was injured 2 years ago and it was a great place to start rehab.
The instructors and classes are great! I also very much enjoy the friendly community!
Great for all ages.
