The Downtown Durham YMCA is located in the heart of downtown Durham. We have a large gym, indoor track, wellness floor and group fitness classes. The YMCA is For All.

We are launching a project that will ensure the YMCA remains at the heart of the vibrant, diverse, growing downtown Durham area. This entails building a downtown Durham Y that will better serve the community inside and outside our walls.

Fantastic experience: The Durham Downtown Y is a wonderful place. The clientele is all different kinds of folks, different shades, different economic conditions etc. The Y serves everyone. It is the world like I would want it to be. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Yes, the building is worn but I love it for who is there and the inclusive, friendly atmosphere. And, they are building a new bigger, better building on the same spot starting in Dec 2022 or Jan 2023.

Positive experience: Is there a law of quantum physics that the steam and sauna cannot work at the same time as the steam and sauna at the Lakewood Y? The steam at Lakewood is down, and then, so as the sauna at the Downtown Y?

Fantastic experience: ‘Great selection of equipment, kind and professional staff, and nice community feel. I always feel better about the world after visiting the Durham Downtown YMCA. People are good about wearing masks, too. I’m so thankful for our City’s (and our Y’s) careful attitudes towards masking!

Chuck Schoon 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: BEST YMCA I have ever seen and used !! Highly recommend !! Very large facility with tons of services and the cost is very reasonable. I have lived in Iowa, Connecticut, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina and the Durham downtown YMCA blows away all of the YMCAs I have seen and used. None of them remotely even come close to this fantastic Y.
