Member Testimonials
I love that the program is onsite so the kids don’t have to travel to another location. My kids have fun and it seems like the teachers/councilors genuinely care about them!
My son enjoys afterschool so much! There are plenty of activities and the folks are really caring. Plus, these two hours allow him to move his body and stretch, things that aren't really possible during normal school hours.
I absolutely love this program and so do my kids. Every time I pick them they have smiles on their faces and say how much they enjoy friends and activities with the after school program! Highly recommended to anyone and everyone!
Good people
I use the treadmills and Lifestyle Fitness equipment twice per week. The equipment is clean and well maintained, the staff are very friendly and helpful, a family member enjoys the water aerobics class. The cost is covered by my United Healthcare Gap Plan.
Everyone is so friendly and inviting. Ellen's classes are the best!
I really like the Yoga classes I participate in each week.
I participant in classes each week. I like their convenience, the fact that I have several choices. My husband goes in to ride the stationary bike at least a couple of times each week. Also convenient. We have been Y members for many years. As we have aged, our needs and choices have changed, and the Y provides a range of choices that continue to meet those changing needs.
The staff are the best. I love the Y mission, especially attitude toward special needs people and less advantaged.
Friendly staff, clean facilities
Good price, excellent location for me, steam room.
Everything great, clean& all people are friendly!
I love this Y! I appreciate the friendly staff, clean amenities, and great equipment.
The facility is beautiful; it is clean and comfortably climate controlled. It has so many different types of activities, including a pool and pickleball courts. We appreciate the variety of classes, and how there are classes throughout the day and the week, so we can go when it fits our schedule. More than anything, though, the staff are all exceptionally welcoming and knowledgeable. They are all so warm! I have already recommended the Y to several friends and family, both in the area and those who live in different states.
Kenan at the front desk is amazing - he has gone above and beyond for us multiple times in the two weeks we've been coming! Our first day he gave us a thorough overview of the different services and layout of the gym, and when we were having issues with starting our membership online, he took care of everything for us so smoothly! All of the front desk staff have been wonderful and welcoming - what a great vibe for a gym!
Staff is friendly and helpful. I’ve made some good friends there. Variety of different exercise programs is good. Communication good.
I like the group classes. I like the after-school care.

I live on the edge of Durham & really enjoy taking water aerobics classes at Meadowmont & Chapel Hill Y. Great instructors, music and classes. Thinking of taking additional classes.
Love the water aerobics class.
The YMCA has a great variety of classes to suit many interests, great equipment in the general weight/exercise room, 2 pools within the Chapel Hill/Carborro complex (1 outdoor, 1 indoor), and a positive vibe in the staff!
The Y is such a friendly and supportive place. I really enjoy the dance and yoga classes.

Our daughter attends the After School program at Hillsborough Elementary School and enjoys it every day to the point of asking us to pick her up later so she could keep playing and doing the activities. The staff are always cheerful and helpful and appear to truly care about our daughter. We’re incredibly thankful to have this as an option for After School.
