People are always friendly and facility has everything that I need.
Staff
Love the exercise classes!! Sandy is so a fantastic instructor. The gals/guys in the class are fun to workout with. Always something for every level High, Med., Low impact. Choices and no one judges you.
The pool has become an issue for me. I am a morning swimmer and the life guards have become a problem. What to do?
This is the only Y in the greater Omaha area that never restored towel service after COVID.
I really enjoy the Aquacise classes. The exercises work every muscle in your body and create flexibility and continued strength. The leaders are good about getting you motivated and try to have fun, while working your body. The Y offers many programs to give people choices of exercise. It's ALL good and keeps people happy and healthy.
My main reason to use the Blair Y is for aquatic exercise. The Y offers aquatic class and/or a well taken care of pool to swim laps or independent excercises.
It's clean and available
Keep the locker rooms cleaner
Update weight equipment. Benches are very old and worn. I feel
They aren’t the safest.
The locker room is looking a little worn.
Friendly staff that great you and the communication is wonderful.
The pool deck and locker room floors are FILTHY. I've been a member since it opened and over the past year(?) it's gotten ridiculous.
5:30 am MWF instructor is awesome - love the group classes - that’s all I’ve tried since I live out of town.
The fitness floor is extremely dirty. It looks like it has been months since the floor has been cleaned. There is no attention to detail and it is an indication that whole facility is not being cleaned appropriately. It is actually the least clean YMCA, or any workout facility, I have been in. It makes me hesitant to use due to sanitary concerns. I would have rated it lower, but there aren't any other workout options in the area. Additionally, the equipment is usable, but it is in rough shape and is in need of maintenance.
The lockers get stuck and are rusty inside. The shower curtains are not wide enough for the opening. And there are no hooks in or near the shower to hang stuff. Basically the womens locker room needs updating
I’ve been a Y member for many years. A place to find good friends and keep you as healthy as possible. A very good habit for daily life.
The facility is clean and inviting. The staff is friendly.
Recommending due to the pool and ability to swim laps early in the morning.
For the price of a membership, it would seem that the gym would have better equipment. Some of the benches are shoddy, and quite old, rusty and wobbly. The equipment is a bit sparse also.
It's a safe clean place to work out. It's nice to have people you see there often working out too.
Have a schedule that has workers (pool) and keep equipment in the work out room in great shape. Esther Gunderson
Making new friends, good classes
Cleanliness and communication is lacking at the Blair YMCA.
More classes and clean the building well and consistently. The air vents in the workout studio are crusted with dust and dirt. In the corners of the bathroom stalls there is THICK gunk and dirt. Care for the grounds - mow, weed, etc. it’s harder to get new members when they tour and this is what they see. Please do not use my name.
