Member Testimonials
Great community
Very pleasant people work there. I love the diverse make-up of the classes I attend; age, gender, race. I always leave the SE YMCA feeling even better than when I came to the class!
I love the Southeast Raleigh Y! The facility and the variety of classes are great, the instructors are talented and supportive, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Ease of parking is another big advantage. I have similar access to three different branches--this is my go-to Y!
Love the wellness area and the kids zone so me and wife can get a good workout in
Friendly staff. Kind and Thoughtful personal trainer (Brandon Scruggs).
If only we had a pec dec machine
Great atmosphere, great energy, and talented staff. The building and grounds are kept clean and orderly. A great place to workout!
It's nice to get fit and to have fun!
Since this is a smaller Y, it feels more intimate and friendly than the larger Y's do. Other members are very friendly and so are the instructors. The outdoor pool in the summer time is great! Tracie P is great!
Location, always clean, and well maintained.

Love Byron and his crew and my classmates make me smile.
Hip Hop Step is also a fun time.
I love Step’s beautifully smiling regular instructor and also this week’s sub’s great playlist/moves…. Sorry I cannot remember how to spell their names starting with a B.

Nice and clean
Class availability
The staff is extremely patient and kind! My son loves the time he spends at the YMCA After school program.
Everything
Everything!
Has a very friendly and welcoming vibe!
The staff are old enough to be business minded and young enough to understand youth . All of the staff that I have spoken with don’t play when it comes to the safety and social/ emotional well-being of the students that are in their care for those hours until they parents arrive to pick their children up.
Nice people,building smells nice
Thank you
Staff always welcoming and professional. Excellent instructors for classes. Nice variety of classes from which to choose. Overall positive atmosphere assures I consistently leave with a smile and feeling of accomplishment.
I understand that some people sign up and do not show and do not bother to cancel, thus necessitating the need to monitor numbers for classes. The only thing I do not like is that even though I have signed up for class, I could be denied access if I get there even one minute after class time. None of the other area Y's do this. Is it absolutely necessary?

the walking track, front desk staff are friendly, classes: Yin, Kettlebell, Barre
