Member Testimonials
The Downtowns Durham YMCA staff is always pleasant and helpful. The facility including the bathroom is clean. I wish they had later classes. Consider more of the balance and strength class, it’s great but as a working person it’s hard to get there with the current class time.
I haven’t used the downtown location in several years. Classes were good . Parking was not.
Love the class and my instructor. The pool leaves something to be desired but I understand it’s probably quite old. And it does the trick.
