The convince, the availability
I Love that your facilities are so close to home, I enjoy the classes and your staff TJ and Tracy make you feel welcomed, Lu has a very popular class that makes everyone smile and comeback for more.
The friendly staff and many options to choose from for my workout needs.
good class offerings, though instructors are stressed about attendance procedures. Afraid we're going to lose good instructors...
We love downtown Durham ymca! So convenient, clean, and great staff.
It is in a convenient location, the desk staff are always pleasant and helpful, it is clean and has good equipment. Most of all I LOVE the zumba classes. I wish there were more during the day!

Locations, diversity of members, hours, pool, racquetball
I like the updated weight machines and the variety of cardio machines. I also like the variety of classes available. However, it's disappointing to me that the side fans rarely work, so the gym can get stuffy, especially in the summer.
I LOVE that the Y is for EVERYBODY! I see all ages, genders, abilities, body types, ethnicities, EVERYONE! I have been weightlifting for a long time but I only recently started doing Zumba classes...they have really changed my life. The impact the Y has on my mental and physical health cannot be overstated.
Just started but I like the availability of classes, variety of gym equipment and the flexibility to visit other locations.
Friendly staff, great teachers!

Staff members are friendly and helpful.
Very friendly staff. The gym equipment covers all my needs and is very often available for use because the gym isn’t too busy.
The front desk staff are awesome. In general the gym is very clean. (I find that the downstairs women's dressing room doesn't smell great when you go to the back row of lockers)
enjoy my classes.
People diversity, Proximity to my house.
Pools
Friendly staff and members
A very warm and friendly environment to work on better health. The staff is skilled and caring and fellow students have become friends.
Front desk staff is very helpful
Steam room!!! The best way to relax after a good workout
Love the Thursday morning Zumba class with Lola. Also appreciate the nice ladies at the front desk. However the speaker/music system in the Zumba room often doesn’t work. And the floor in the Zumba room needs maintenance.

The classes are easy to book online. I enjoy that I can take advantage of all the Triangle Ys— it makes it easy and very flexible for me since my schedule varies week to week. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. It’s always easy to walk in— I never feel uncomfortable.
I also like the social justice mission of the Y. I enjoy knowing that my membership helps my community and I enjoy participating in events like the gift tree at Christmas time.
