Love HOT YOGA
Beautiful facility- spacious, modern, well lit. Looks like an upscale gym. No kids running around if you’re interested in that environment. Very nice staff.
Enjoyed my class very much
Great instructors and fun group fitness classes. And I can do weights one day, barre the next and yoga after that, so good variety too.
Very convenient location, wish it had more classes, especially barre
Beautiful and clean
i loved the instructor and the class ymca is lucky to have this instructor
i will always come back but the shower/ toilet by the the free weights was really gross
I love the yoga classes, especially the hot yoga ones!
Location; Friendliness/Helpfulness of employees; Hours of operation
Staff are all friendly and helpful. Facilities are what I need.
I get anxiety from sensory overload in larger, busier gyms, so I'm so thankful that Poyner is a smaller and quieter alternative to Alexander. Friendly staff, too!
very friendly and helpful staff
Friendly atmosphere, lots of options
My first time visiting Poyner was very good. I didn’t know there was a YMCA downtown Raleigh. After checking in, with the “Y” closing in ten minutes, I did a quick walkthrough. I came back the next day and did the Hot Yoga class. The ladies were very friendly and helpful with explaining the programs and scheduling. Now I’m on my own schedule going 2-3 times a week at Poyner.
The facility is within walking distance of my house and the staff are very pleasant. I also like the hot yoga studio and classes!
Great staff! Usually very clean!
The downtown Y is super convenient- a very nice facility
