Facilities are clean and has good programs. The childwatch is a plus that no one else offers. The only thing is that members who signed up a few days prior to ymca publishing new deals can get the same deal because it is not fair
I really like the small class sizes
The group class space is huge. Downside is the floor is sticky, not very conducive to pivoting and quick dance moves.
Good classes, great teachers, equipment that works, help is availability, safe surroundings in the parking lot and in the building and a wide range of classes. Friendly people staff and patrons.
Clean pool, good classes, clean facilities.
Better maintenance in the women’s locker room.
I have noticed the women’s lockers need to be replaced. Rusted bottoms of lockers. I have also noticed hair in the shower drains.
Could use an update. Other y’s when you are using machines, you can lookout windows. Still nice to have tvs above windows
Friendly staff, excellent pool, lots of programs, classes and equipment
The place needs a refresh. Armbrust recently redid their lockers and SWY needs the same. I now only use the place when I am not using the lockers. The people are very helpful, which makes it worthwhile
The showers need an actual door. The curtain was shut and shower on and somebody pulled the curtain back “ looking” for her kid. It also needs a space in shower to keep my clean clothes dry, so I can change in shower.
Showers always look disgusting. Pool doesn't seem clean, either, but I swim then shower at home. Price seems high for what you are getting, but I love to swim. On the plus side, the staff is friendly and lately there is a lane open.
Please put a swimsuit spinner in. Other metro Ys have them.
Senior classes/activities are the best. Jackie Wattenhofer is an excellent instructor as well as wonderful at arranging other activities to engage seniors.
I think all the guards at SW YMCA are wonderful! Starting the one on one lessons has been a game changer.
Love the ladies who teach Silver Sneakers. They are great.
Some of the exercise equipment is out of order consistently.
I am a big fan of Jacquline & her classes at the Southwest location in Omaha, NE. I followed her from the Westview YMCA. She is by far the best instructor. Not only does she instruct & inspire but she genuinely cares about the people she surrounds herself with.
Everything was clean, the machines are in great shape and everyone's friendly.
Becky makes working out fun and she is easy to follow I. Group active. The front staff is friendly and always greats me when I walk in. The gym is clean and not intimidating.
LOVE OUR Y!
I love this location. I swim lap and joined about 18 mo ago. I know the pool is very old, guessing you can't clean the pool floor any better due to old stains?
Personal preferences as to ability to tolerate all generations with different levels of respect.
The variety of classes offered
Locker room needs updated badly and no extra amenities like a hot tub.
Experienced staff that works well with class participants.
Silver Sneakers program and social events/trips for older members are excellent.
