I go to the Lakewood Y for Zumba with Shirley Yeh. Shirley is arguably the best Zumba instructor in the Triangle. Her spirit, sense of fun and the pleasure in dance/exercise is wonderful. It’s a challenging workout that has helped my fitness greatly. Thank You!

Lakewood Y has a good selection of equipment that's clean and well maintained. The facility is well maintained, and the staff is friendly and helpful.
The reception team members were very helpful in enrolling and get us acclimated to the place
Kick boxing class with Anthony A
Good classroom space, good locker room, very nice front desk staff.
The instructors are skilled and friendly, and the community of other members is fun.
I do have a concern about the cost of guest passes. It's literally prohibitively expensive: I will avoid bringing a guest. This makes me sad, as I'd like to share the Y with my occasional visiting friend or relative. Please consider going back to offering a couple of free passes per year to members as a perk.
Thed people and the STEAM and SAUNA rooms.
It’s a small, club type feel. Staff is nice and friendly.
Clean. Helpful personnel. Great classes
Good classes, friendly community.
We love Lakewood!! Everyone is friendly from the front desk staff to the instructors to the other members. It's an unbeatable location and not super crowded/busy. My all time favorite class -- the Wednesday kickboxing class -- is there. I love the amenities and the vibes, and I'm glad it is my home Y.
My only small wish there were more early evening classes (4/5/5:30) or more strength training class options in the weekday early evenings but I know this is the highest traffic time and it's hard to accommodate everyone. Thank you all for everything you do!
Gentle love the people there. Some times the steamroom doesn't work since that love this plase
The staff is very friendly and the steam room is amazing. I wish the steam room and the facility stayed open later.
The Lakewood YMCA feels like home. The staff are so friendly and helpful. And there’s a core group of members who have been with the Y long term. It’s a great spot to work out and stay for and also to socialize.
Friendly, competent, helpful staff.
Always clean. Class instructors are great!
Observation: Cut overhead fans on in the women’s locker room! They use to stay on, but lately nothing!
My daugther enjoyed the activities and the staff.
Good facilities with minor exception of HVAC issues. Excellent staff & group exercise instructors!
Layout, nice equipment, amazing women's locker room!
Wonderful week. Kind and supportive counselors. Eager to get to camp each morning and tires at the end of the day.
I love the Lakewood Y. Lean & Cut strength training classes, nice size group exercise room, variety of equipment, great music play list, always friendly staff & atmosphere, love the kids playing ping pong in the middle of everything else going on.
Jessica is an excellent yoga instructor, really knows technique, adjusts to needs/abilities of her group.
Small setting. Friendly environment. Like the equipment.
Lakewood has an excellent staff, good equipment, both sauna and steam room and a true sense of community.

The facility is always clean with equipment in working order. Excellent parking! Staff extremely friendly and helpful!!
The ONLY thing I wish you would do is mirror the wall behind the weight equipment (as you have done with the other wall. I hate facing a blank wall while using the equipment!
