Member Testimonials
Fun, informative, friendly instructors, Staff, and even members. The facility is always clean and everyone is always very professional but also down to earth. I feel like I am among family here
Clean facility, a lot of various types of group fitness classes, activities, and community involvement.
Everyone is always very nice during pick up. Often our daughter doesn’t want to leave or wants to be picked up later so she can stay longer.
My daughter enjoys the experience (crafts/activities/games), so that makes me happy.
The coaches are wonderful
Its positive and friendly. My son has grown in his confidence and loves going to the Y for basketball!
Really like the classes offered throughout the week.
Friendly staff. Nice facility.
The features included at the Poole family is just what I need to run, workout, use the gym, have a good time at the sauna.
Very nice staff, good communication!
Aria always comes back super happy & excited about the next Y adventure.
Friendly and clean
Clean gym with modern well kept equipment and a positive atmosphere. With the level of facilities and other programs/classes that the YMCA offers I see it as the best gym membership for the money in the Triangle.

Welcoming and friendly environment! Something to appeal to everyone.
I joined the Y in February 2024 and it changed my life. The LiveStrong program (for cancer survivors) was my initial class. I felt accepted, understood, hopeful for the first time since my cancer journey. Staff, volunteers, members are all very gracious, loving & helpful. I’m a HUGE fan of the Poole Y.
The instructors are excellent . Love the classes and interactions with all staff. Everyone is great. Wished they would have line dancing for evening classes. Most people work during the day and there’s only one class on Wednesday during the day. That class was fun on New Year’s Day. Thanks for all you do.
The YMCA After school program is fantastic. They plan and organize great activities to keep the kids engaged and get them outdoors and active as much as possible. The crafts that they plan are also great. My daughter gets mad at us when we pick her up early and she does not have enough time at after school care.
The staff was "super friendly & courteous"
Very nice facility and super nice people on the pickleball court!
Classes and cleanliness
Clean, no wait for equipment, friendly and helpful staff
As a regular, it's nice that to know all the staff and they know you as you walk in.
Members are respectful of others. There is no feeling of "hurry-up, get off so I can do that machine!" here.
The classes are not "Impossible" to get in unlike the Kraft Y. On the other hand, there are about half as many classes offered
Great facilities and friendly staff.
The staff is very attentive and caring.
