I don't know where to begin with how much I love this gym! Having a centrally located, high quality, and community focused gym in the core of Downtown Raleigh is such an amazing asset for Raleigh. The hot yoga classes have become a foundational part of my fitness routine with tons of classes offered starting as early as 6:15a for early risers and through into the evening. The hot yoga alone is worth the gym membership cost! The weights and cardio equipment are pristine and the sauna is such a nice retreat. The fact that you have access to the entire triangle system with your membership provides flexibility for our family - but the Poyner location is without a doubt my favorite Y and the one I frequent the most. ❤️

I've been to gyms all over the world and Pam was by far the warmest nicest employee I've ever met. Even gave me a tour of the old bank vault. Incredible employee, great gym

Poyner YMCA is amazing. The facility overall is exceptionally maintained. I love that the lockers are combination and super easy to use. They provide towels in the lockers rooms, along with full size showers with locking doors. There is a hot sauna in the women’s locker room, I can assume the men’s locker room has one too. Two flights of stairs, classes are held on the lowest level while the main workout area is located in the center of the building directly downstairs from the reception area. Everyone I’ve met who works here is so kind. I’ve never felt so welcomed in a gym before. Between the staff and clean facilities I love coming here and you will too!

Really lovely, friendly, and helpful staff, clean gym. Although the new squat racks are a welcome addition, I question why they came at the expense of what was already the most crowded real estate of the gym (dumbbell / mirror area) with no compensating expansion - the dumbbell area was already chaotic before and now at peak hours its a complete mess, difficult to navigate around all the benches and weights people are trying to jam into a really small space. I sincerely hope management chooses to expand the dumbbell area and mirrors out further towards the downstairs office.

Love this YMCA for the sole reason that it has a hot yoga studio and the instructors are awesome. They have a lot of classes on their schedule so if you need something late vs something in the early morning I’m pretty sure you can find what you need. I like how it’s located in downtown Raleigh but the parking does get tricky sometimes.
