Member Testimonials
The professionalism
Friendly and welcoming staff, support of pickleball, clean and well-equipped facility.
When I walked into the Poole Family Y I honestly felt like I was home. Malinda and Melissa helped me get a membership which was FREE with my insurance. I started Start Strong with Laura the next day and was very impressed! It was fun and over the last year and a half I have made many friends and had so much fun in the classes!!
Before I came here, I was isolating and feeling very sad and old. The Y brought me to a better place in my life and I will always be grateful.
Stretch and Restore class
I usually workout 4-5 days per week and every day is different. I typically go during the daytime however since trying Zumba with Jillian on Wednesday nights, I have rearranged my schedule. I love her class! My two daughters take this class with me every week. Jillian is such a positive, fun and energetic person. We look forward to our time together taking this class!
I love the community feeling in and around exercise classes. The people are so friendly. The instructors are so knowledgable. The Y makes attaining & maintaining one’s personal fitness FUN.
Employees are super friendly and real. The place is clean and enjoy its location. I am happy with your Christian values.
However, I wish there was more space! Why do you need so many ellipticals? They are barely full.
Also will you be building a Y in Fuquay? I’ll be moving in that area and don’t want to go to any other place.

Customer service
I enjoy the Thrive classes for senior folks. The classes have very fine and effective instructors who encourage us in a friendly chatty manner. I like the time slot of these classes as I’m not a morning person. I’m currently taking advantage of an extracurricular personal small group strength training with Laura Taylor; where she encourages continued use of the exercises and equipment she has taught us to use. I especially enjoy the monthly outings to points of interest and unique restaurants that Beth Porter plans and coordinates, as it affords us the opportunity to meet new friends in our age group. All in all the Y provides a healthy community!
