Member Testimonials
Friendly staff, clean facilities, convenient location and not very crowded at the time I work out
I like the from the moment I arrive the front desk are always so pleasant and greeting you with a smile. Which sets the tone of how your exercise begins even when you really aren’t in a good mood are happy about exercising,
I've always gotten a great workout there not crowded full of people just in the way not knowing what to work on. And the environment was just key to get a great workout not like a Golds gym where a bunch of people just slamming weights around. Very friendly and family oriented.

Great location, very polite staff and facilities are well taken care of.
1) the staff! All of the staff I interact with are so friendly and ready to help.
2) the kid zone has allowed me to still work out while being a single mama
3) group fitness! Zumba has truly changed my life. I have so much fun with such a wide variety of people.
I truly feel that the Y is for EVERYBODY and that's what makes it so great.
The pool is very busy. It is hard to find a lane your don't have to share before work. After work is impossible because of the swim teams. I did find the pool mostly empty at 7 pm on Friday. Durham needs more pools that are open to public outside of summer.
I still enjoy the pool very much. It is just busy, busy, busy.
Joseph and Marva are great!

Fabulous facilities, friendly and welcoming staff, friendly members. Feels like family!
ideal location and hour availability (especially the pool, I swim añmost every day); cleanliness, super staff!
I really enjoy my H2O fitness class with Sumia. She is an excellent instructor & the participants are friendly & engaging. The front desk staff are friendly & efficient & the pool staff is helpful & caring. They even went out of their way to find my towel that had been picked up by mistake by someone else. These recent impressions mirror the excellence I have experienced in the “upstairs” gym in the past. …..AND my health goals are feeling more & more attainable. Thank you for the excellence.
They treat me like a valued family member! The facility is always clean. Great equipment! Great classes!
I like how laid back it is. I like the fact that there are 6 baseball hoops. I think that the weight area could use a bit of a refresher. some of the machines feel a little old, some of the weights seem to have chunks missing out of them. but other than that its a great Ymca and a great option instead of having to drive to cary
Great installation, fantastic staff supervises programs and wonderful instructirs
easy in and out and friendly people!
Facilities and staff
Staff and other members are friendly. Good variety with group fitness classes. Good instructors. Machines well maintained.
I love that it really feels like a community gym- everyone is friendly, encouraging, and courteous. Never feel intimidated!
Need to enforce the cell phone rules they sit on workout machines for hours reading messages communicating why people are waiting to use the machines more people cleaning up more
