Member Testimonials
It was our first time taking swimming lessons here. Bryan was great as an instructor, very patient. and respectful.
A couple of things that I was not impressed with. First, the level of chlorine in the pool. I have visited other pools and this one has smelled the strongest. I am not sure if the maintenance crew goes overboard with the chlorine but it took days to get the chlorine removed from the bathing suits.
Second, the make up policy for the classes. My three children were all sick at the same time-all missed the lesson for that week and were unable to make up the lesson.
Workout floor, childcare, swimming pool and all classes options.
It's a good, very family-oriented gym. The only problem is that you or they took away our Body Attack class on Saturdays early. Aya was one of the best trainers. She's certified for many different classes. I've seen her at Golds Gym, NBTx, and Crunch 78 SA, Tx. You let her go, and she was a hard worker, responsible, and took care of everyone. We need a class very early on Saturdays, 7:15 am, for example( like Hit class 7:15 am will be perfect )I like the Bodypump class on Mondays and Wednesdays, but it's always the same. She need to change the choreography more often because when they do the new class, they only do it for two weeks and then they go back to the same thing, and it's boring. The Tuesday and Thursday class has more variety, but it's at 6:15 am, which is late for those of us who work early. Melisa from Y Fit works well also the lady in Monday with Y Fit
I love the boot camp, HIIT classes and body pump. Sometimes it's difficult to get into the classes because it fills up. My husband plays pickleball.
the price is very good and low budget friendly. the staff/teachers are supppperrr nice and patient and friendly. my kids love the programs
Love the classes & instructors; however I often find treadmills that aren't updated & not working
Ms. Liz was very patient and kind with my daughter!
The people
Really like aqua volleyball and the people involved. We have made a group of friends that meet for activities outside of the Y.
Very clean pools.
Yes and free
I am recovering from knee surgery. Your facility has been welcoming to me giving me all the information I needed to use your pool. Love to see all of the activity at the center. Looking forward to joining in on the other activities as I get better.
Group exercises have become my anchor since I started my membership at YMCA OP Schnabel Park almost a year ago. All trainers are absolutely awesome and professional. They inspire me to stay motivated, work hard, and keep going towards better health. I have experienced improved endurance, increased energy, greater sense of well-being, better sleep, muscle tone, and overall physical and mental health which was my goal. It is hard work but has really paid off in ways I did not expect.
A big Thank You to all my group exercise trainers: Carolyn, Stephanie, Angela, and Robyn
Appreciate all your efforts, patience, and making it so enjoyable for all of us to come back and keep working hard. YMCA is an amazing place because of you!
Sincerely,

The other members are gracious and open to conversation.
Bonnie is so sweet and knowledgeable!!! We love her and will continue with private lessons with her :-)
As a new member at the 1000 Oaks YMCA my first impressions are it is a well equipped and maintained facility used by a wide variety of members in the San Antonio Texas community. My wife signed us both up for a "senior" exercise class which is definitely giving us a workout. We have also started to try out the pickleball courts where current players have been very welcoming and encouraging.

Lizzie was an amazing instructor. Our child was really hesitant about putting her face in the water and taking the steps to really start to learn how to swim. Lizzie was patient and kind and did a great job at supporting her and eventually she not only put her face in the water but was excited about swim class. Highly recommend.
Zumba with Gabby is amazing. High energy and fun. 10/10!!!
Like aqua aerobics & ForeverWell classes.

Great variety of classes and times from which to choose.
I like that the gym is not crowded and very clean

I like this Y a lot. We've been to the bandera, stone oak, and potranco locations. I do not like stone oak. Rules for games are so different from the other locations and the staff are not polite.
