Member Testimonials
Friendly staff, quiet facilities, locker room (and sauna) are usually empty, heated yoga studio
I enjoy the hot yoga class offerings!
Clean and Friendly.
Friendly instructor, Clean facility, towels, great experience.
I love the YMCA community. I recommend them to anyone
Has all the equipment I typically look for. Friendly staff! Quiet and lowkey
Nice people, clean facilities, most of the equipment and class I would expect. Would like the gym to open at 5 instead of 530 am and offer the cycle classes more days a week, as it's impossible to get into the Wed and it's soo good!
Proximity to my office
Roomy, spaced out workout area. Not cramped, not on top of other members.
Classes, equipment, environment, cleanliness, reliability
Gorgeous facility, Top of the Line Group fitness classes, Hot Yoga Studio is Amazing. Instructors are brilliant. Only downfall is trying to find parking.
People are great! Facilities fit my needs.
I belong to Alexander YMCA and would recommend it to others.
I am long time member of Alexander Y and went to Poyner to check it out.
"Sloan" is a hard-working and very friendly hot yoga pilates teacher and I enjoyed her instructive and challenging class.
Most of all, the man at the front desk, Malcolm, was extremely welcoming and professional. He gave me a tour, offered to meet me and take me to the first yoga class after I had changed in the locker room, caught Sloan in the hall and introduced me to her, and introduced me to Pam, the other very kind and friendly person at the front desk. Pam offered me information about the services and is a good ambassador for the Y.
My primary experience was with Malcolm. Malcom made my experience exceptional. He is a keeper.

Yoga classes and location
Staff, facility
LOVE the hot yoga studio! Wish there were more classes so I could come daily.
Absolutely love the Poyner Y. I feel like I'm at the spa in your beautiful bathrooms and love coming to workout during my lunch breaks. You all are my favorite spot on Fayetteville St.
Everything! Welcoming check-in staff, clean and quiet workout area, and fabulous warm yin yoga studio and instructors.
The people. The yoga. The location. The facility.

Lots of options for my workout -- whether free weights, machines, classes, treadmill, etc. Great personal training
Great value. Gym is super nice clean and well stocked with equipment
Location, location. location. It is an easy walk to the Y.

I. Its the YMCA
2. Very convenient for me to walk their, 7blocks closer to me than the Alexander YMCA. I d rather walk than drive to the Alexander Y which can be pretty crowded at times.
3. Less crowded than the Alexander Y
I hope in the very near future that there will be classes again such as there were prior to covid!
Hi Hopes for that!
