Member Testimonials
I only participate in water aerobics at this time. It is wonderful to have deep water classes that are non impact. Gwyn is an excellent instructor and I’ve been attending her classes regularly for seven years. She continues to introduce exercises that I have not done before! The pool always appears to be clean and the temperature is usually appropriate for me.
The folks who greet us as we enter and leave are always positive and pleasant.
I appreciate that there are many other classes and pieces of equipment that I access if interested.
I also appreciate the programs the YMCA supports.
Love the variety of activities he gets to do and the great care from the staff!!! He loves going to after school and we raved to other parents about it!
I love the water aerobic classes offered, and I have made many friends in these classes through the years. I am also impressed with all the fitness equipment available for use.

Ease of use! Variety of equipment! Great staff!
Mix of activities including being outside. Counselors are caring. My kids enjoy going
I love that it's located at my kid's school, it's affordable and offers a mix of activities to keep my kid occupied.
Our daughter enjoys the different activities as well as all the friendly staff.
Great sign up process. Very easy and professional
Besides having quality equipment, the facility is very clean. And ALL YMCA people are friendly, helpful and patient. Thanks…
The Y is a great friendly place for exercising. But, you need to get the right folding chairs for chair yoga! The chairs should have a FLAT seat. The curved-seat plastic chairs in the gym are very uncomfortable for yoga.
My son loves the Youth Leadership Program, and I enjoy the pool for lap swimming. My husband uses the gym equipment at least twice a week.
Staff, classes, facilities
Friendly environment
I like most things about it. My problem is I like to take classes and my ideal time is the afternoon and there's never classes offered in the afternoon
Friendly
I like the people that work there.
The friendliness of the staff.
The sense of community
Cheerful people greeting you, clean locker room, easy parking.
I love the way the people greet you so warmly when you walk in, the way people get to know each other in the exercise classes, and the way that the Y reaches out to do good for so many age groups.
One aspect I appreciate most about my Chapel Hill–Carrboro YMCA membership is the variety of well-maintained facilities that support both fitness and overall well-being. The indoor track has become one of my favorite features, offering a comfortable and climate-controlled space to walk or run regardless of the weather. I also value having access to the swimming pool, which provides an excellent low-impact workout and a refreshing change of pace from a traditional gym routine.
Another highlight for me is the gymnasium. I enjoy shooting basketball, and I especially appreciate that the gym is rarely crowded, allowing me to practice freely and at my own pace. The friendly atmosphere throughout the YMCA contributes significantly to my experience as well. Staff members and fellow members are courteous and welcoming, which helps create a sense of community rather than just a workout space.
Perhaps most importantly, I am grateful for the safe and supportive environment the YMCA provides. Whether I am exercising, swimming, or simply spending time in the facility, I feel comfortable and secure. Altogether, these factors make my YMCA membership not just convenient, but genuinely enjoyable and meaningful.
We are members for the swim team and have thus far had a wonderful experience.
Friendly and professional staff! Variety of class options. Hours of operation. Feeling of “community and family”.
Friendly, good classes
I worked with Heather and she was beyond helpful with my enrollment.
Wonderful instructors. Friendly students. Great variety of classes. Feel so lucky to be a member
I love the people; the incredibly welcoming and supportive atmosphere that all of them generate. I feel genuinely encouraged to try a class, lift weights, or use one of the courts. This YMCA absolutely supports my health and my growth, while simultaneously supporting us to grow together as a community. THANK YOU!!!
