Great gym with modern equipment and everything you need for cardio and weight training. Very friendly staff. Lots of great classes, basketball gym, two pools, and studios. It’s also very affordable, especially when compared to other gyms. I love the Y.

The YMCA buildings in Buncombe county are the best centers I’ve ever experienced. Great for camps, parents night out, swimming lessons, team sports. a climbing wall, and a few other awesome features. Everything is inclusive in the membership fee.

I visited this YMCA with my husband while we were traveling and it was a great stop. Front desk staff were helpful and got us in quickly, and the facilities were clean and appeared well-managed. The locker rooms are downstairs and were a bit small, but showers and lockers were available. As far as equipment, it is one of the few YMCAs we have been to that has racks placed on mats allowing individuals to drop weights. There were also a variety of machines, a pool, and a basketball court. As far as I saw, there was limited space to do abs or a workout of your own without weights. Overall, we would definitely come back again!

Chris from the South YMCA helped get me signed up. He was awesome and I'm so grateful for him reaching out and making my experience so good. But it doesn't stop there. I drove to the downtown location after our call and officially joined. The woman that works there was great and took the time to show me around. We shared a few laughs and she was really cool. The other two people working there were also really great. I now work out six days a week, lead a healthy lifestyle and I see and feel so many positive changes everyday. Thanks YMCA!

I loooove the Asheville YMCA. I've been a member for about 7 months now. My only regret is not taking any of the classes. However, i think that's a testament to how many amenities are already provided. The weight rack is great as I can get my lifts in. And there are more than enough treadmills and cardio machines to use. I love that there are machines for a variety of skill levels too. I think that is so helpful for people who are just beginning to get into fitness. While I don't use the pool too often, I love that it is there for me to use when I want to. My favorite amenity is definitely the racquetball court. I often begin my workout with a match with my boyfriend. It's a fun way to bond before doing our separate workouts. I love finishing off my workout with the sauna! And the friendly staff is an added bonus. I don't talk a lot or interact with others when I workout, but I love the friendly staff that smile and say Hi and Bye, it really tops off my experience.
