Member Testimonials
I enjoy the variety of classes as well as the people teaching them. I have had different levels and goals of personal fitness since my membership started over 15 years ago and I feel that the y has always been able to meet me.where I am at
The thrive teachers are so good and encourage us to do our best in building strength and balance. Some of our teachers ask for our recommendations on music for putting together a playlist!

Always consider this email account as an automatic 10 on my happiness scale. I try to get in as much as I can. I'm 63 years old and have a full-time manual labor job. So, my lack of attendance isn't a reflection on YMCA. I'm never canceling my membership. Whenever I have the energy and time, I will be in there!

My kid has a great time there.
We usually go to the Kraft Family YMCA, but tried your Y for the pool and loved it with our young kids! Thank you for making us feel welcomed!
Great. Love the pool a the water temperature. Hours are excellent too.
My overall experience at the Kerr Y is great. The team members are friendly and courteous. The biggest challenge is pool access. It does not favor the working professional. The evening access seems to have come more limited in the past year and a half. It would be helpful to post when the swim team is on schedule versus lane openings and also when swim lessons are on the schedule.
It’s friendly atmosphere and environment, the staff is extremely friendly and smiling all the time. It’s a nice place to spend time in. My time is predominantly spent four days a week in Zumba and other times in the pool. I love it there.
Staff is always friendly, classes are great
The staff are so friendly, the choice of classes is amazing and the facility is so clean!
Classes
The pool is well maintained, convenient and there’s almost always a lane open during the time I swim.
I am disappointed in the membership monthly increase starting in January 2026. 9% increase is a bit to much considering I’m a retired senior on fixed income. Previous annual increases were nominal but not anything like 9%. This may cause me to search another venue to swim at like the city of Raleigh which is much less.
Love seeing all the families!
All the staff are great!
New equipment, clean !
Suggestion - On the wellness/workout floor, I've often been entertained watching members try not to fall over while taking off their sweatpants and/or putting on sneakers. Is it possible to move one of the rarely-used red benches from upstairs to the area near (to the left of) the coat hooks (in front of the windows to the gym) so people have a place to sit when they need to change? Also, lots of workout bags/backpacks could then be placed below the bench.
Enjoying the fancy door decorations and looking forward to getting that new T-shirt!
