Member Testimonials
Great staff at the Alexander Y in Raleigh.
Cleanliness, politeness, availability
Ideally I would like more lanes /time for swimming but I understand you have a number of groups / classes occurring so it might be challenging.
Gym time
Friendliness, cleanliness and overall nice facility.
A hot tub/ whirlpool would be nice.
The steam room has been working well.
Who uses the lockers with the round combination locks?
Can I get a personal trainer & if so what is the cost?
I often go to classes with Emily and Dana. I also appreciate the lifeguards at the pool.
Best gym I've ever been to.
friendly staff, easy to reserve courts
I love going to the Y! I always leave feeling better about life and never regret doing a workout. The staff are friendly and encouraging and the environment is overall welcoming and positive. To me the cost is very affordable and I get my money's worth. I would highly recommend a membership!
Yoga classes
Wonderful staff, excellent equipment, and supportive and friendly members.
I love the members and the instructors. It does not feel like a huge gym to me. I grew up with my mom going to the Y so once I was out of college and in a city with a strong Y it was a given that I would join. I have been a member at Alexander for over 20 years.
Friendly, welcoming, love Mary’s Pilates class
I love the atmosphere and all of the kind people who work there! The front desk makes me smile every time I enter the door.
Great staff and very friendly
My entire family can come - and it doesn’t feel like an exclusionary or competitive environment. It’s welcoming of all ages, races, etc.
I am very pleased with the Y - staff is very friendly, I like the variety of machines, the walking circuit, the classes. Well worth the money, as I go 2-3 per week.

I like the friendly atmosphere and the fact that it’s multi-generational. There is something for everyone. The fitness instructors are all really awesome - Julie B, Cheri, PJ, Jenny J, and First name removed Beth are my favorites! Thank you, thank you.
