Pool, racketball
The entire team is awesome and Acey really enjoys her swimming lessons- they are so patient with the kids
Cycle classes are nice…pool is pretty busy usually at downtown center. I’m closer too the one on maple tho
Excellent fitness trainers and Silver Sneakers classes.
Very kind people. Good variety of classes. Reasonable costs.
Water Safety instructor Kayleigh Hegerty was knowledgeable and professional conducting Lifeguard/CPR/First Aid class during the classroom and in pool phases.
The Aquatic department is in need of new equipment to safely conduct water safety training. Rescue tubes worn out, tiles on pool deck/edge missing.
I enjoy the workout equipment. The locker facilities are adequate. The free visit with a trainer was very helpful. Staff are friendly and nice. Love it that the Y offers work experiences for mentally challenged individuals.
The physical environment could benefit from upgrading. Who chose the color grey for floors, walls and ceilings in the lower workout area with the machines? Windows could stand to be washed in the lower workout area. ( I know that with limited budgets window washing is a low priority.) The area where the bicycles is very enjoyable becuse it is bright! And not grey.
Tons of things to do-- I enjoy using the pool.
Availability of racquetball and lifting equipment. Has all the equipment I need and usually available. Old building makes for semi-private spaces that are more comfortable and pleasant to use than big open gyms. Most more modern gyms don't have the racks that i actually want to use.
They are small personable groups, and very friendly.
Your hours work well with lots of people’s schedules. It’s a diverse environment accessible to many.
I am so happy that Silvee Sneakers is finally back!!
The best pool around, the indoor track is quite lovely, the layout of the workout facilities is great
I’ve heard some members express interest in evening BodyPump classes!
Body pump and cycling classes
They allow a group of seniors to have a water workout class
The exercise classes have knowledgeable instructors
I absolutely love the pool, in my opinion it’s the best one in town.
I like the early morning (6 a.m. or earlier) yoga sessions with Abbie and Stephanie. I like the friendly front desk Stacy. I like the camaraderie and variety of the members
Women’s fitness center
The classes are very approachable and I never feel like I'm not healthy or fit enough.
Also as I go at my own pace I'm encouraged by the instructors at both locations I go to.
Great facility friendly staff.
One of my favorite YMCA.
I LOVE the lap pool so much! I actually live in Council Bluffs but drive to the downtown Omaha Y to go swimming! Then I lift some weights afterwards. I also love the weight room!! I really love going to your Y!!
Thank you so much! Everyone is so nice!
Love the lifeguards!
You have better pool hours for lap swimming than most and for a decent price! The staff is friendly, even in the wee hours of the morning.
Ove water aerobics
Very nice staff like the ltograms
Group exercise classes
Is there anyway that the women program can be included in with activation fee when using medical financial economical payments?
I enjoy the pool. They keep the temperature in a comfortable zone. The lifeguards are always helpful and attentive. The locker room is clean. The staff at the desk are always helpful.
I love the entire Aquatics staff. They're very professional and when I have any issues they're quick to solve it.
I enjoy the classes and the instructors. They are all encouraging and helpful in getting the best workout while in there class.
