Member Testimonials
I am a part of the Livestrong program at the Sarpy County YMCA and it has been amazing!
Silver Sneaker classes
reliable AM lifeguard
I only use your facility for swimming classes
Love the small swimming class sizes, how friendly the staff is and affordability.
The facilities are clean and the swimming pool is kid friendly (warm temp, plus slide and shallow areas). We love the family changing rooms option for older kids who cannot go in the dressing room alone yet but come with an opposite sex parent. The teachers are so nice and explain the swimming lesson to the kids well. Our daughter also loves playing with the teachers at Kids Watch (daycare) while my husband exercises.
I appreciate how the instructors come and talk to you after each class about your kiddos progress.
We had a GREAT experience with the Sarpy Y swimming lessons! We took the mid-week morning one and my son had wonderful teachers and instructions and a small class. My only complaint was one class was cancelled due to the pool boiler (totally ok, not their fault) but we were not notified in any way of the cancellation and so we showed up unaware. Other than that, the 5 remaining lessons were a huge success! Planning on signing up our other two kids soon!
Pickleball and aqua classes.
My friends and I come specifically to water walk and do other exercises in the pool.
We really need the pool to be open and the boiler to be working to enable us to exercise 3x a week.
People are pleasant. Environment is excellent. Love the Y!
Water walking, pool is easy entry and exit, it’s kept at a comfortable temperature
Group activities. Sarpy YMCA lacks communication skills. Not everyone uses facebook!
When our pool is closed, no notification. Many do not use ( some try) the Facebook —- but why would we check that every morning? Why can’t a notification via text be sent class participants when the pool is closed suddenly. In this age— surely a list that triggers a one- stroke push to send out notifications that the 69 to 89 year old water aerobics class members in case of unplanned closure of pool—- is a possibility.
Great welcoming instructors. Emily was a ray of sunshine.
Friendly, knowledgeable staff.
Clean facility pleasant people.
The pool is great
I’m part of the weight loss program & enjoying it.
Member oriented. Member appreciated.
Water aerobic classes are a big part of my exercise plan. I do 2 WA classes a day M-F. I find these classes very enjoyable and essential to my good health. The instructors are all very good and the variety of different workouts from different instructors keeps the classes interesting.
I’ve just started attending a line dancing class which is not only a lot of fun but a good physical workout, plus good for balance and memory because we learn and have to remember new dances every week.
My doctor always tells me to keep doing what I’m doing, and I intend to keep coming to the Y 5 days a week.
Everyone was kind and welcoming as it was my first time visiting this branch. The instructor of the class introduced herself to me and the person at the front showed me where the pool and locker room were located.
We love swim at the YMCA. Our 3-year-old, Evie, gets so excited to go each week and has learned and progressed so much even after 1 session. The instructors have patience and know how to talk to kids to get them to listen and learn. Evie LOVES Miss Kennedy. She makes learning fun, and the kids are comfortable with her to help them become better and safer swimmers.
My adoptive saying. “You’ve gotta move it’
Livestrong program is doing that for me two days a week.
I like the socialization with other seniors in the aqua classes. I enjoy interacting with the next generation of young people at the Y. I think the workouts and instructors are excellent. .
Great gym, staff, and instrutors!
You offer a wide variety of classes available with choices depending on your fitness level.
I hope you offer smaller class choices for improving our level of fitness.
These classes to be short term so to keep fees down .
I love the Silver Sneaker classes. The teachers and atmosphere are very welcoming.
have tried other YMCAs in others places and none compare to the Papillion YMCA.
Variety of group classes - something for everyone!

Convenient location, good amenities, great price, great childcare. Love that there is no contract.
The new wipes for the equipment are terrible!!! They are dry and don’t do anything. Also need more soap dispensers for the women’s bathroom sinks. So many sinks with no access to soap
