Member Testimonials

Well furnished and quite

Thus far, it's great. Friendly desk person, nice variety of equipment, and not too crowded.

I love all the yoga classes. I love the steam rooms at the various Triangle ymcas when they are working.

Please, please add line dancing classes.

Thank you 😊

Great equipment, not crowded, kind desk staff and good price point.

The woman at the desk when I picked up my card was amazing. She answered all my many many questions about the Y and workouts with a deep knowledge and love of teaching. She is so great.

My only hesitation is the emphasis on Christianity. That is not inclusive. It is time for the organization to get past that.

Great equipment/space and fab location

Nice equipment.

Excellent place. Organized, spacious, clesn and kind people

Great facility. Clean - awesome staff

Lots of different classes and locations

The American Tobacco Y is a beautiful space, and there's plenty of equipment for a great workout.

I love the location so much. It’s a joy to work out in this location. The one thing I could ask for to be considered is offering more Body Pump and Attack and Combat courses throughout the week. I enjoy these classes but they were often offered at times that didn’t work. I’m hoping you can offer more options lastly is there anyway we could do the combat and attack classes in the Cage as an option when weather permits? These classes don’t have any weights required for them and could easily be offered in the cage. At the top of American Tobacco. I know several people mentioned this who regularly attend combat. Joyce could teach it! She is amazing

The walking class and the stretch class help me during my days at work. They energize me, and they're a great break from sitting at a desk!

Pilates with Crystal is the best class the ymca offers! She’s an incredible instructor and I’ve learned so much about proper form from her. I like the cleanliness of the facility and the layout of the group fitness studio. It’s also a great location close walking distance from places to eat and steps from the Tobacco Trail.

It’s an easy walk from home and it’s not over-crowded - very clean, very friendly staff. The space is in an historic building and the high ceilings make it feel spacious and relaxing. I don’t swim, so it has everything I need. I like the size and it’s well-maintained.

Never crowed, friendly staff, clean, convenient.

I am constantly recommending the y as it offers a huge variety of classes and so many different venues. My one issue is that the hope vaa as ley pool is not open to members for most of the year which is incredibly frustrating for those that want to do laps and swim out doors. Why not open it to the membership and not just to the swim club youth. Seems very unfair.

It’s clean and you are greeted with a smile.he is always pleasant friendly and make you feel welcome

As a female, I greatly appreciate the layout of the AT gym. Because it’s quiet and small, I don’t feel intimidated or that there’s a big “macho” culture here. Also, having done a metabolic fit class, I feel comfortable using the queenax area and enjoy the diverse options.

It's not crowed, has all the equipment needed for a comprehensive workout (free weights, cardio machines, and weight machines), and it's super clean.

So convenient!!! Friendly staff and I really like the expanded hours.

Cleanliness of the gym and the wonderful staff

It always seems clean and calm. I like that it's smaller than downtown and Lakewood. Feels more like a clubhouse! And the employees are super nice and helpful!

Great instructor (Laurie Register). Great classmates. Great support staff.

Excellent location and friendly, professional staff.

I love the American Tobacco Y! It is within walking distance of my home which motivates me to go. The staff is amazing! So kind and warm. The scale of the environment makes me feel that it’s my own personal space!
The classes are fantastic; specifically, Laurie Register’s classes. She is the first person who has gotten this 70 year old couch potato to actually work out consistently for over a year! She is kind but firm and encouraging. She makes doing difficult work fun and I feel an amazing sense of accomplishment with her.
I just learned that this Y is not on the Silver Sneakers list which makes me sad because we recently changed our health care insurance but I will never leave the Y and will pay out of pocket because I enjoy and have benefited from my membership so much.

The staff is very friendly and the facility is not crowded.

This facility has nice equipment and variety of different machines, free weights, etc. There's a huge gym space with additional weights and equipment. It's not crowded. There's mostly adults as there's no Y teams practicing at this facility. The YMCA staff are super nice and welcoming. I love going there - after going to a lot of the other Y locations - this one is the BEST! The location is beautiful at the complex below the waterfalls too.

Great facilities, never jam packed, friendly staff, clean and contemporary locker rooms
