Member Testimonials
I love the Mosssa classes. Becky makes working out fun. She is easy to follow and I like she switches up the group active routine. I don’t know the name of the instructor but I like the restor yoga class on Sundays. The front staff is friendly and always says hello
Zach's TBC class is the best in town! I just wish Maple Street had more programming. It is the closest to my house. I have decided to cancel my membership. It is unfair that those of us in disadvantaged communities have to travel 25 minutes to nicer facilities with better programming. We pay the same monthly fees as folks in more privileged communities. Instead of increasing membership rates for those of us in central Omaha, we should get a discounted rate until facilities in our area have been renovated and programming enhanced.
You’re exercising class is great and fun
I enjoy the water exercises mostly. Kind of wish there was an early afternoon session.
Staff great always activity going on
They welcome everyone and your staff is so friendly
This YMCA has the group classes I am looking for and I have found the staff to be very friendly and helpful.
I like the nice staff and gym court at the facility
It is really nice to meet people like me
The many classes and the good quality of trainers.
It is close to home but I don’t do classes because I can’t commit because I still work. I like to see the cable to fix because I watch tv. I wish for a meditation class. I would love to learn how to do that. My brain just keeps going.
The staff is great always
The machines are wonderful.and the instructors are sitting in wait to help.
The group fitness classes are my favorite. The instructors are always helpful to get me started and then make sure I understand the movements throughout the class. This facility is definitely one of my favorites as the staff is always friendly, and the facility areas that I visit are always very clean.
Easy to fit in
Fun. Challenging. Friendly great instructors.
Great yoga teacher Marina
Programs are geared toward ability not competitiveness while still aiming for self improvement.
I have been a member for four years and I have had a lot of fun at the YMCA. I especially like the pool but our whole family enjoys the many activities available there. My grandson says, "This is the funnest place!" Great place to take the kids any time.
I use the aquasize classes and the instructors are great. Each is different and are all effective.
The Y is a great place!
I have not participated in programs or activities except for 'get started.' In those two sessions, I found Tommy to be welcoming, engaging, encouraging and enthsiastic.
In my first month, the staff all seem to be welcoming, warm, friendly and inclusive.
The pool is great and vital to my well-being, but I wish they’d had the forethought to make the lap area full size;3 lanes are not enough. One note of caution: don’t go swimming on Sunday morning because there’s a creep videotaping with his phone all over the pool whiles families with their kids and individuals are swimming. I’m pretty sure that’s illegal. I’ve reported it many times.
Everyone was so helpful and nice, it was my first time going to the southwest location and Ashley showed me around and front desk and ycare employees were all so helpful! Thank you guys for making such a wonderful experience!
The swimming lessons are wonderful. We have done them at SW before, and decided to try out our "home" location. After 2 sessions there, we decided it was worth making the drive from Blair down to SW.
We love the consistency of the teachers- my son has autism, and knowing what to expect makes a huge difference for him in terms of learning and feeling comfortable in his environment overall.
At our other sessions, we had a new teacher every week and he did not want to attend, when normally he loves swimming.
Since coming back to SW, he is excited and looks forward to lessons! We also really like the 2x/wk option for the Level 5 kids!
Everyone is super friendly and welcoming, and the front desk staff always greets us and says hello.
Love the group exercise classes and instructors
Very clean and spacious. Lots of different exercise classes.
The variety of classes and the staff. 😊
Easy to get involved. Love the pool, locker rooms and individual rooms. Just wish there was more open pool time for adults.
Also frustrating when I see the school students parking in the Y lot which forces the members to park farther away I the side lots.
I do water aerobics Tuesday thru Friday. Each instructor does their own routine. So each day instructors work different muscle groups.

The best thing about the YMCA is the fitness workouts but what's better is the new friends
