Talayla is amazing and motivating! The receptionist was super-friendly, too.
Love the facilities and the classes. The locker room is always clean, tidy, and well stocked. The group exercise room is clean and comfortable for yoga classes.
Great staff and plenty of equipment.
great YMCA, convenient to my work location, 2 minute walk downstairs. can't understand why everyone doesn't use it. Clean facility, never crowded, friendly staff, showers, lockers.
Great location near work and residences for people who live near downtown. Great facilities with a beautiful view of a waterfall from the American Tobacco Campus. Class Instructors are welcoming and knowledgeable.
There are never enough weights in the group fitness classes.
Clean, friendly and quiet
I visited for the first time recently and was impressed by how modern and clean the facility is. I have to say that Shanta at the front desk was my favorite part of the visit. She was warm, welcoming, and fun to chat with and made me feel comfortable right away!

The American Tobacco YMCA has a great welcoming and family atmosphere. I love the classes and the facility is so convenient to everything downtown.
Staff and facilities are top notch!
My favorite group fitness instructor, Crystal, teaches Pilates here. I try to come every week because it has been so amazingly helpful to reduce back pain and build strength. It’s also really fun! I like the group workout studio space and the locker rooms are nice.
There is free coffee, up-to-date equipment, and it is very clean!

Clean, friendly staff and not crowded.
Friendly staff, great equipment, never crowded
The Y at American Tobacco is a superbly well-organized, clean and friendly space. The equipment is kept in top notch shape and is the the best I’ve seen. I’ve been going to the Y since I was a teen in Nashville, TN. Now, middle-aged, I can say that this is one of the two best Ys I’ve used-truly above par!!
Friendly staff. It's not crowded!!!
Excellent instructors for yoga & Pilates. A great facility very well managed & equipped!

The American Tobacco facility has some equipment I really like, the sled being one of them. The facility is also probably the nicest Y and the staff, like all the Durham YMCA's, is awesome.
Staff is great. Clean facility. Convenient location. Members are friendly and welcoming.
It is super convenient, clean, and there is always room to spread out when I'm working out!
A great selection of classes, many well equipped facilities in the area and great teachers who offer a wide variety of approaches to keeping fit.
The staff is great!!!
Cozy, well designed gym. Room for classes is just wonderful- nice wood floors and large.
Clean and comfortable women's locker room with nice large lockers.
Friendly staff.
Love all the windows and easy parking.
It’s the only location I go to because it’s clean and not overcrowded to like the others. The classes at the other locations have way too many people in them to have space/room to exercise. And it’s impossible to use the equipment without waiting in line forever or rearranging my whole workout to accommodate the over crowding. Sometimes this happens at AT, as well, but it’s less of an issue.
I don’t like the Friday hours however.
