Early morning hours for classes. Variety of intensity of classes offered. Friendly and helpful staff.
The programs that are available are designed for all age groups. We have a great selection of classes we can choose from. For many of us, we don’t have to drive far. Just the right size and very friendly staff who knows us and takes care of us
I like the exercise classes. I enjoyed exercising with other people rather than doing it on my own. I am more challenged and feel like I get a better workout.
I THOROUGHLY ENJOY THE BOOT CAMPS! THEY ARE ALOT OF FUN & ALWAYS A GOOD CHALLENGE!

Accessibility
They are varied and accessible.
Stoney Creek YMCA promotes a family friendly atmosphere. We feel valued and comfortable with all who are members.
I love the quiet environment
The staff is very friendly, and the facility is kept very clean. I also enjoy meeting new members, as there seems to be a strong sense of community at this site.
It is near to where I live (so convenient). The gym is always clean. The staff and members are nice and welcoming.
Silver sneakers great for older members. Need more classes though
While the larger YMCA locations seem to be favorite facilities for families with children, the Stoney Creek Express YMCA is the perfect facility for adults of all ages who want to incorporate an exercise regimen into their busy lives. It’s just the right size with a friendly, clean and inviting atmosphere offering an excellent selection of well-maintained equipment and a decent selection of morning and evening classes.
Morgan and Sydney are amazing. I just use free weights.
Great weight machines and cardio area…
A good variety of classes and a huge variety of equipment.
The group classes for active adults are excellent at addressing every muscle group as well as balance. The instructors are approachable, knowledgeable and make working out and sweating fun. The class participants are welcoming and very helpful.
In no specific order, this YMCA is relatively close to my home and in a shopping center so that I attend to several things including shopping for groceries, medications, even auto parts. The Y has extended hours and they have lots of equipment including tread mills, mechanical stairs, weights and machines which work several muscle groups. I have had some personal training as well. This time of year can be rough for walking along roadways where it can be really hot or rainy and road and shoulder maintenance doesn't always keep up with the growth of grass and weeds. A number of medical plans cover silver sneakers and related programs because a healthier person helps all of us.
It is close to my house and I can always get in to workwork.
The cleanliness! Also, I appreciate the friendly greeting when I walk through the door.
They helpful and keep the gym clean.
Friendly staff. The areas are kept clean.
It is a clean, friendly place to exercise with lots of equipment.
We love the staff at Stoney Creek and the relationships that are built there. Great conversations with Sydney and Jeremy! Great team!
Friendly and nearby.
Well, things have definitely changed since the pandemic struck, resulting in an obvious drop in membership and attendance and a change in some personnel. However, a number of classes are resuming, especially my favorites - yoga, and from what I’ve observed upon recently returning the situation is as safe as you’re going to find at an indoor gym for working out, especially if you are vaccinated.
As always, the facility is sparkling clean, well lit with a cheery environment, and the staff are friendly and welcoming. While you won’t find offerings like basketball courts and a swimming pool at an Express YMCA like Stoney Creek, the selection of weight-training and cardio equipment is excellent and the activity room is large to accommodate the various types of classes. There is also a small library of member-donated books and a comfortable sitting area of decent size outside the activity room in which social distancing is possible.
I also like that the YMCA, including the Stoney Creek Express branch, is more than just a gym, that it does things for the community at large. It’s the reason I maintained my membership during the pandemic close-down.
All in all, the YMCA of Greensboro and specifically the Stoney Creek Express branch are great places to exercise and become involved with the community, if you so desire!
Sydney is awesome!!
The staff and all the members are so joyful and helpful. It is more like a family atmosphere and is lots more enjoyable to go workout in that sort of environment that where people barely speak to you. Have made some great friends there!!!
Great facility
