Member Testimonials
Friendly welcoming staff
It's clean, the staff is friendly, the equipment is well-maintained, and it's not too busy.
I cannot express how much class with Laurie (ATC) and Lenae (Downtown) mean to me. They are so reliable, give me so much joy, create community, and ground my week. I love how group fitness really brings people together and offers me a place I am known.
I would love for hair ties/elastics to be added to the women's locker room with the feminine products. Thanks.
Convenience, easy parking, nice facility
Great experience 10/10. I love the instructors there specially Katherine and Laurie. They are so friendly and always make me feel like I’m welcomed. Please pass this message along to them.
The gym is very special and conducive to my workout
Right now I prefer this YMCA compared to the one in Morgan St. The Tobacco YMCA is further away of a drive for me but the facility is much better: not as cramped, the locker feels much more clean and organize. I would really prefer to go to the Morgan St YMCA cause I'm closer to it but the last time I went to work out there it looks like equipment's were rearrange not for the better but for the worse. I think the parking situation is slightly better at the Morgan St YMCA.
Shawnta made the process easy and frictionless
Location and atmosphere
I love that it isn't too crowded!
Friendly staff!
I like the smaller, less crowded atmosphere. Due to the fact it is smaller, I’ve gotten to know the other folks working out. It feels like a small family group among the regulars.
I like that the equipment and staff. It's a great place to work out.
Body pump
Love it
contains all the equipment necessary for a good work-out; friendliness of all staff. On the other hand, there is no direct telephone number to check up on hours of operation or closings

Cleanliness. Updated and well-maintained equipment. Variety of offerings for group fitness classes. Proximity to the running/bike trail (American Tobacco Trail). Our family loves it!
I love the YMCA at the American tobacco location. I think this location would benefit greatly by becoming a 24-hour access location. It can be modeled after many gyms in the area that have a key card access and staff only during the day. Staff would not be needed at night. Please consider at least doing a trial run of this model.
Thank you!
