Overcrowded, limited space, treadmill TVs' do not always work, locker room needs to be updated. Friendly staff.
Small but friendly Y branch. Equipment is beginning to age and will need to be upgraded soon. The branch is very small for a community expanding rapidly. Great for Silver Sneakers and those wanting limited work out options. It in no way compares equipment wise to places like Crunch fitness but it is a short drive for TR residents and options are limited in the area. FYI, religious services are held there on Sundays and Sunday hours are limited. Update: September 2025 Some equipment has been replaced with new models but no change in variety. Appears to have more personal trainers available for those who want training. Tried a great yoga class but studio space was small and it was way too close for comfort. This Y needs a major expansion. TR is growing fast and the housing development next to the Y is an additional 300 homes. Seems like TR branch is the poor sister in the Greenville YMCA hierarchy. Staff is doing a good job meeting diverse community needs with what they have but are severely limited in space.
I went to the YMCA today for a training session, and I had a genuinely heartwarming experience. While I was working out, I met a young man named Little Yimmy who left a lasting impression on me. From the moment we crossed paths, he was incredibly kind and respectful. He went out of his way to help me unload my weights, and he did so with impressive speed and care. But what stood out even more than his physical strength was his character. After our workout, he walked me to my car, making sure I got there safely. Such a simple gesture, yet it spoke volumes about the kind of person he is. In a world where courtesy can sometimes feel rare, Little Yimmy reminded me that true gentlemen still exist.
I love this Y. The staff are some of the friendliest people you’ll meet, the facilities are very clean and the youth sports programs are some of the best in the upstate. They also offer ballet/dance lessons. Our two girls love it! They’re more than just a gym. There’s a ton of value beneath the surface. Plus from what I understand, they have plans for some really cool facility upgrades/additions in the near future. If you’re looking to get yourself or your kids more active and involved in a community-focused culture then stop in and talk to the staff. You’ll be surprised to find out everything they offer, I know I was!
