Member Testimonials
I love the community feel - the way that when you go every day at the same time you begin to recognize faces and are greeted with a "good morning!" and a smile from other YMCA members. I appreciate that there are always machines available for use and it's easy to get whatever workout you desire in.
Birdie is the most amazing trainer I’ve ever worked with. She is kind, supportive, and kicks my butt!
The staff is very friendly and consistent.
Friendly staff
I would like to see the Y educating folks more. I am surprised at how many folks seem to be anorexic or the like. How about putting up information in the exercise classes/gyms that educates members on eating/exercising disorders? And for everyone's health, how about posting signs that say something to the effect that it is the season for the spread of highly contagious illnesses, please stay home if you are not feeling well. Some of the folks at the Y are not able to heal as quickly as you may heal.
Location, range of classes, diversity of participants
Very clean facility and friendly staff!
The facility is clean!! The members are polite and the staff is helpful and friendly.
Good pool hours for lap swimmers, great equipment, good classes. Amy is a great yoga/Thrive instructor. Her strength and balance class works your muscles in a way that the 45 minutes fly by and you don't know you've worked hard until your muscles hurt the next day!
Friendliness of staff and the Y members.
The steam point blank, I understand the new Y will not have a steam room ,what a shame if that takes place .
Love the location and it's always clean and the staff are friendly.

The Durham Y is a great place for everyone to get / stay healthy, supporting kids and meeting friends who I wouldn't otherwise know.
Friendly staff, clean facilities, convenient location and not very crowded at the time I work out
I like the from the moment I arrive the front desk are always so pleasant and greeting you with a smile. Which sets the tone of how your exercise begins even when you really aren’t in a good mood are happy about exercising,
I've always gotten a great workout there not crowded full of people just in the way not knowing what to work on. And the environment was just key to get a great workout not like a Golds gym where a bunch of people just slamming weights around. Very friendly and family oriented.
