Member Testimonials
I needed a place where I could exercise with low impact. The pool at the Downtown Durham YMCA was the perfect solution for me. Staff is always friendly, fellow members share lanes well when it’s busy… the parking is always hit or miss, so, I typically try to swim on off-peak hours.
The staff is excellent
There are interesting and fun classes.
Staff and members are friendly
Sufficient equipment
The biggest problem is lack of free parking in downtown Durham and a small parking lot.
If the new Downtown Durham Y doesn't have free parking, I will likely just go to a different gym.
Everything is great. It’s a very clean facility, the staff are super nice and friendly, and the gym is big.
Friendly and curtious staff.
Clean, friendly staff and great equipment.
Nancy is awesome!
I'm ready to progress up in weights, but there aren't very many sets of 12 available in the space. Could we get more 12 pound free weights in the group fitness space?
The friendly people
The diversity of staff and membership and the classes and instructors. Also the downtown location.

I appreciate that there are people there from all walks of life. It’s a very supportive environment.
The staff is very nice and friendly and helpful! I been a member of the YMCA for 5 years and I love it! I have been able to work on my fitness goals with and without my therapists OT and PT!
I never go to the downtown Y--I go to the Lakewood Y, which I love. But I HATE getting constant requests to fill out these surveys. It is annoying and it never stops.
