DANA IS THE BEST YOGA TEACHER IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND
The staff is friendly and helpful. The environment is clean and professional. It is more of an adult YMCA than a family one and that is what I like about it. People are there to get fit and healthy.
Friendly, clean, not crowded, has the perfect range and amount of equipment. Every group fitness class so far has been great.
It’s clean and not crowded. Jeff, the cycle instructor is great.
Never was a member of the Y but now I get it!
Great experience for me and my husband.
The classes are fantastic and I have even seen more being added -- just great. On top of all that, the staff is friendly and helpful. Pam is always smiling and we really love seeing her. We LOVE the Y!
Hot and warm yoga.
The instructors for hot and warm yoga are the best!
I absolutely love the YMCA! The Y has been a huge part of my life—it was even my first job. Over the years, being a member here has been such a positive experience, from the welcoming community to the great facilities and programs. It’s not just a gym; it’s a place that’s truly changed my life for the better. The Poyner location, in particular, is so nice—I always feel comfortable and enjoy spending time there. I’m so grateful for what the Y stands for and offers!
Most of all, I love the welcoming atmosphere from the employees and members alike. The front desk staff, fitness instructors, and trainers go out of their way to get to know members and support them in any way possible. Specifically, Annabeth A (group fitness) and Malcolm and Bruce (both front desk) are the people who continuously pour into guests and go out of their way to talk with all people to know them on a deeper level.
Friendly and welcoming!
Never crowded.
Great classes, especially hot yoga.
And, Pam's the best!
The gym is always clean and the staff are friendly
I like that it is so close to my home, that it has the equipment I like to use for my workouts and the staff is awesome.
Big enough to have all the equipment I need for strength training, yet small enough to find it all! Lovely staff. Most members I’ve encountered are respectful and encouraging.
