Friendly staff and excellent personal trainer. Most of the equipment is in good shape although freeway benches are pretty wobbly. Having the option of many locations is also potentially convenient, but I have only visited the one at Hope Valley Farms. I also like the fact that tennis courts are available, which Is unique in the public gym world. For me, the Hope Valley Farms location is also very convenient to my
The class
It isn't crowed. And we love having an outdoor pool to swim in during the summer months.
Friendly staff, good teachers, clean facilities and a good variety of classes.
But please let us sign up earlier than 48 hours! I work full time and like to get my week’s schedule set on the weekend. Why can’t we sign up on Sunday for the whole week?
Good for customers care
The variety of fitness classes offered and the beautiful pool! To bad Stanley Bass can’t think that way.
Staff, teachers, classes, equipment.
Friendly place, family atmosphere. Kids in the after school care seem very happy.
Ellie’s class is great. Want to try the pool too
Nice facilities. It has an outdoor pool.
The start strong program is fantastic for a beginner like me to get comfortable and learn some basics in a no pressure environment. Thank you to the YMCA and Lucy for offering it.
The counselors are very inviting and helpful to my kids. I appreciate the support that has been provided.
Good experience and workout
Excellent group exercise classes, staff, swim & tennis plus weights & cardio room!
My son has a fantastic time, he gets his energy out, he loves helping the counselors, and when I pick him up he often asks to stay longer!
Kind!
Very reliable after-school care. Great outdoor play areas. Staff keeps kids entertained and safe
I love that it is not crowded midday. Always a splendid experience for members although not optimal for the Y.
Staff are friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I like the classes I take there. I take exercise classes with Laurie, Ellie and Brianna.
My only complaint is that the floors are frequently filthy and we do a lot of different exercises on the floor.
The awesome gym equipment with plenty of free weights and cardio machines, access to an outdoor pool and tennis/pickleball courts, and the friendly faces I see at the YMCA.
Very upset that outdoor spinning classes at the Cage at America Tobacco were taken indoors. We had a large crowd of happy riders and an instructor that wanted to stay outdoors. Everyone was happy the past 2 years. Who wants to spin 2 feet from the next rider?
I only joined about a month ago, but I really like the fact that there are clay tennis courts. I also like personal trainer that I am using currently. This is very convenient to me and equipment in the white area seems to be complete in a small space.
Great location, friendly staff, great instructors with thoughtful classes, and friendly members.
First time using the facility. It is clean, small and intimate, it has what you need to get a decent workout.
The studio is quiet and I love being there at dusk and dawn watching the light through the trees. Clean facility and very friendly staff. My only concern is the pool is closed to members even before Labor Day and that should be rectified. The pool was upgraded with a heater for swimming in the winter and ymca members cannot use it. This is very frustrating.
I like the convenience of having it close by
The staff is friendly and there is adequate equipment.
It’s a smaller facility but has a nice group fitness room, an adequate workout area and during the summer an excellent outdoor lap pool. The staff is friendly and helpful
Like all Durham Ys, it's a friendly & welcoming place. Ellie's Tuesday evening class is great, but there's a real shortage of 8lb. hand weights which are in demand for this class. The round disc weights don't work well for the exercises in this class.
I'm looking forward to trying the outdoor pool.
One other issue I have: it's easy to miss the turn off Roxboro St. into the parking lot, Hard to see the sign for the parking lot until it's almost too late to turn. I wonder if you could put an additional sign in the median.
Thanks for asking!
Laurie is amazing always so positive great classes so is Anthony and Ellie. Love all of them.
The staff members are always helpful and very friendly. I love the clay courts!!!
Attractive exercise studio for group classes. I like the windows!
