Water Fitness
The. Staff is friendly.
The open hours, especially for the pool, are the best in the triangle.
I enjoy the diversity of folks that utilize the Y while I'm working out. I've made a number of friends that I would not have met otherwise. I appreciate the many programs offered by the Y, especially for the children to young adults.

Friendly staff and members
The membership of the Durham Y is diverse in so many dimensions. The teachers are awesome and the staff are always welcoming.
The gym is perfect, the staff is wonderful. Parking is usually easy to find. The location is super convenient. The weekend hours could be a little better but not a big issue. Overall, I love this facility
Everything about the YMCA it's great people Tony Markham
Clean facility good customer service and I love most of the classes they offer especially water aerobics with Tonnie
The staff is so incredibly kind and genuine. I just moved to Durham, and it’s so nice to be greeted every time I walk in. And not in a superficial way. The facilities are always clean. In fact, I have recommended the YMCA to my brother.
Easy to get to, has all the equipment I need. Physical building does need a bit of renovation if not going to be torn down and replaced (which I know it’s the medium term plan)
A place where I can go and experience a peaceful atmosphere while working out
The staff is amazing

The classes.

I have been a member of the DD YMCA since its inception. I love it and hope that it will remain AS IS WHERE IS. Take a lap around the track and check out the exposed girders to see how well constructed this building is. No changes needed. Thank you! Graham Marlette
