Member Testimonials
The whole atmosphere is absolutely wonderful and the people that work at Chatham Park really elevate the experience. The one thing I would like to ask is to please not use round up because it gets into the ground water and you have a pool and children and this is a toxic cancer-causing chemical, it would be nice to see more natural things used at a family venue.
Swim Aerobics! Wish we were able to have classes year round.
I really enjoy my morning workouts. Plenty of equipment to use, class options and the staff is always amazing.
I typically go to the Durham Lakewood location, and while I love it, I was incredibly impressed by the offerings of the Chatham Park Y. They also have my favorite Precor elliptical, which is definitely a draw, as that's my primary cardio workout.
GYM class
Welcoming vibe - from the front check-in desk and staff to the instructors.
Instructors - especially Amy M (Barre/Lean and Cut) and Eleanor (yoga) - are skilled instructors and delightful.
Disappointment ~ the aqua fitness classes scheduled at 8:00AM are the WORST time for those of us who have developed a long discipline of 8:15 and 9:15 morning classes. Please consider rescheduling aqua fitness to 10:30. There is only one class - one choice - at that time. Another great time would be late afternoon and/or early evening.
Thanks for opportunity to provide feedback. Our family loves the Chatham Y.
Great staff! Great facilities! I love spending time here!
Nice. Clean. Staff friendly. Good equipment.

I enjoy all of the people I see every day, from the front desk to the members that are always there at the same time as myself.

Connivance, friendly employees, clean.
The facility is so clean and I am always greeted by friendly staff that make me feel welcome. I attend group classes and all instructors are amazing. They include all fitness levels while making classes fun. I have made some amazing friends that encourage each other on our fitness journey. The Y has become a very important part of my life.

The classes
The Chatham Park Y is one of the friendliest and cleanest gyms I have ever used. The pleasant atmosphere there makes working out a very enjoyable experience.
Love the facility, trainers, and convenience in location. The strength training classes are really great, and I enjoy them very much.
The "Top of the Line" facility staffed with friendly professionals and patrons.

Community of leaders.
Great equipment, friendly and helpful staff, excellent classes, easy access to the facility and easy parking.
I love the variety of classes, and the instructors that teach them!
The Chatham Park YMCA is well run with a great staff. There are only two issues I have repeatedly observed that I consider a problem that realistically the staff have no direct control over.
Issue 1. - Some members seem to be unaware or are aware and just don’t care that the gym equipment is for exercise and not for use as a cell phone booth, personal office for texting, reading emails or conducting their daily business. Some type of reminder needs to be made to inform these individuals that the YMCA is a gym and not a business communication center. Possibly the staff could make a polite/courteous statement to this effect upon member check-in or maybe put more signage throughout the gym area stating this as gym policy.
Issue 2. - Gym equipment needs to be wiped down/sanitized after each individual use. Staff accomplishes this when they can however members need some type of reminder that this action is not just a courtesy but a personal responsibility and health requirement. Possibly this type of reminder could be made at check-in.
