Member Testimonials
It is a clean family friendly organization, the facilities are organized well and maintained to high standard.
It focused on developing the player as a person, not winning.
We love our coach, our parents, our team.
I love the opportunities that the YMCA gives our families to have children go out and soak up the sunshine and be active!
Putting down the devices is a big challenge in this day and age!!!
I’m so happy to be part of the YMCA Family!
My son does a Master Builder class with Mr. Ronin. He has taken this class several years now. He has so much fun and likes his teacher very much. I use the gym on days my son has his Master Builder class. It is always nice, clean, and a pleasant environment. Every single staff member we have encountered at the YMCA at OP Schnabel has always been cheerful, courteous, and helpful. Recently my son tried soccer at the Y and has absolutely loved it. This is just such a great place to be. There are so many great classes and activities to choose from and very family oriented.
How great the kids play together. How my son was able to enjoy a good game and it not be so competitive. He just started to play soccer and they actually let him feel comfortable with learning and enjoying it.
Relaxed atmosphere, good community, great facilities and staff
Like the variety that's being offered.
The volunteers/coaches are so devoted! They have a passion for helping the kids succeed. They give up hours of their time each week. They are amazing!
This season was wonderful. A big shout out to DaMani Phillips, his communication throughout the season was great! From weather updates to getting me informed about coaching with the necessary tools & apps.
It was much appreciated, and made the season run smoothly and enjoyable.
Many thanks,

Everything and the staff
The coaches are very involved and knowledgeable.
Many activities to choose from, kind staff!
We have been coaching basketball at Westside Ymca for 20 years and we always recommend parents to enroll their kids in sports.
I LOVE the workout classes. Also the child watch. Everyone is so friendly and it feels so welcoming and like you’re a part of a community and important to them.
I liked the volleyball clinics that have been offered with Coach Martinez. His expertise in the sport is appreciated. Of course the parent coaches are appreciated but it's nice to have some opportunities to develope skills with experienced coaches and players.
I like the sports program. All three of my kids play soccer and they love it. We enjoy the focus of putting the child first and the sport second. They love making friends through the program and we look forward to every season it is offered. The coaches have been wonderful and encouraging.
Always great to go and very clean environment

Friendly Staff, clean facilities, variety of activities, welcoming atmosphere
The variety of Classes
Clean, wholesome environment with very helpful staff.
I love the classes and the class atmosphere. I also love working out on the floor. There is plenty of space and equipment. I know it is super hard to find those 5:30am class instructors but it would be great if we had Tuesday and Wednesday at 5:30am also. Summer is coming so teachers will be able to come later but please don't cancel them in the fall! I love being able to get my workout in and then get to work. It makes the afternoons so much easier with kids activities. The front desk and floor staff could be a little friendlier and visible but I know there are lots of new faces on both the desk and the floor. I do expect a phone call from Selma :)
The 1000 Oaks YMCA has everything a person or family needs. One great thing about a "Y": they will never cheat you on memberships or money like a commercial gym will and that's an important reason I stay at 1000 Oaks.
Variety.
Classes and instructors are great. There are many different classes. A great place to workout!
