One of the things we'll miss about living in San Antonio is this YMCA. It has a bunch of activities for kids and adults. The manager Jeremy and his staff is the reason we're so comfortable at this location. We were going to join a Golds gym but after seeing how the staff is always welcoming and helpful we decided to join YMCA. This gym has enough to get you a good workout and for you to see results. I've never seen overpacked either. Machines are basically new and never broken. read more

Great folks & facility, lots of classes & current equipment. The facility is well taken care of by competent & friendly staff. Nice pool & dressing rooms, clean & up-to-date facility, classes for all age groups, family friendly & one of the best gyms around. Join today!!! read more

I should be Duke up in this joint. You can find me here every Tues/Thurs up in tha gym, workin on my fitness....Fergalicious. I have only one other YMCA to compare to, and um, there is no comparison. Maybe it's just that you only like YOUR YMCA, HEB, or Valero, but really this Y is so perfect. The staff are the best. The workout area is the best. The pool is the best. The locker rooms are the best. And the child care is...well, pretty good. They have one very judgemental care person that irritates the snot out of me, but doesn't everyone? I always start with 10min of cardio on the AVATAR! machine...it really has no name, but it reminds me of the scene with the hardass jerk from Avatar using the robot. They also have all the cool, hipster Airrosti equipment, so I can roll out my fascia. Yeah, I'm really cool, huh? TIP: They provide towels for cleaning the machines, but they work just as well as a face towel (get two, and avoid mixing them...sigh) - no need to bring your own! read more

This is the first place my son has played in any sort of league and this season he played tball/coach pitch and he absolutely loves it! He took a few lessons of baseball and football last season and the staff made it so much fun to learn new things. Can't wait to see how he progresses throughout the years with this organization. Highly recommend! read more

Great family atmosphere here, no blaring pop music. I didn't feel like I was in a club, I felt like I was in a gym. On top of all that there's a beautiful trail head at O.P. you can get your cardio in at! read more

You pay a premium for your child to play soccer here. I give a poor review because the fields are completely wrecked. Not level at all. Chalk lines are rare at best. Better should be provided for the kids. Basketball is also a joke with the Y. Unorganized. Some teams are given 8 players while others are given 11 or more..why? I encourage spending your money elsewhere. read more

This review is only about their customer service as I did not get a chance to use their facility. As I drove into the parking lot I saw signs about movement and dance classes for kids ages 2-11, sign up now! I go in, and without looking at me a young woman at the desk asks what I want. I inquire about classes and activities for toddlers, my kid is 2. She says sorry, the only thing available are mommy and me swim, but they're full. I say that I saw a sign outside for dance classes for ages 2-11. She looks at me with a blank stare. I ask about swim classes. She says that's the mommy and me swim, and they're full. I say full until when? Forever? She says yes and picks up the phone to talk to someone else. This place apparently doesn't want my patronage and I'm only too happy to oblige. read more

We were very disapointed with the staff. Too many Young kids running the pool area with no people skills. We are members at the Thousand Oaks location and the staff there is the best ive seen. My child had performed excellent swimming skills and they crushed her feeling by adding that she needs to work more on her swimming skills in order to swin in there tiny tiny pool. What a joke! This will be our last time at this location. Oh and they added that this location has the strictest safety rules.I guess if you live in the neighborhood and this is the only place to come then I guess you don't have a choice but if you have a choice don't visit this location. read more

YMCA at O.P. Schnabel Park - Tiny Pool! - Child Care & Day Care Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I'm very disturbed on how poorly they are following safety measures for the spread of Covid 19. They don't allow you to walk in or out of the gym without a mask but they let people workout not wearing masks. Even golds gym makes it mandatory for members to wear a mask in the entire facility and there a bigger gym. It's not safe to be here read more

Really impressed with this location! We belong to a YMCA in Dallas and were able to use our membership here (for free) while we were in town. I have to admit, this is pretty awesome, because we have to pay $5 just to visit some of the other (nicer) YMCAs IN DALLAS! Anyway, the workout area is very spacious and there were plenty of machines available when we went. They also had lots of kettlebells, which I enjoyed because our site only has one. And there was plenty of room to use it! It's very clean and new, and people were so friendly. I love YMCAs in general but I was so happy to get to come to this one for a few days and can't wait to visit again on our next trip to San Antonio! read more

Very disappointing experience with this location. Their lack of transparency when enrolling kids in their sports programs left my child upset that they could not participate. You would think they would offer a return of funds, but no. To have christian values, I am not sure why they slither in the grass like snakes. I would advise looking elsewhere for sports, the prices are not that great to use their services. read more

YMCA has always been close to my heart as a small place that kids can roam to after school and during the summer. Look out, San Antonio, because the YMCA off of Bandera Road is an unbelievable amusement park. It has a state of the art swimming pool, clubhouse, and playground all situated next to the Leon Creek Green-way. It is absolutely gorgeous. The nature feel of the park situated next to a giant child play place is key in any child's development. I took a look around however it was not open so I did not get any direct pricing from the staff. I am not sure though, even if it were free, that I would make the drive from NE San Antonio. It is a bit of a drive. In any case, I would love to see this type of YMCA built closer to my own home and when it does, I will be all set to give it 5 enormous stars. read more

Staff is very helpful. A little smaller than what I expected and a bit on the pricey said. But overall, so far positive experience.

The relatively new Braundera YMCA is located inside O.P. Schnabel park, so has access to graded, wooded hike and bike trails of varying degrees of difficulty, nicely tended outdoor basketball courts, a playground, etc. But the YMCA facility itself is nice, too. They offer: * A large studio for classes on Zumba, Yoga, Step Fitness, Strength Training, Spinning, etc. * An outdoor (unheated) pool with waterslides for the kids and a splash and fountains area. * Locker rooms with hair dryers, showers, etc. * A baby/toddler area with staff * A kids' play area similar to a McDonald's playland * An older kids' play area with pool table, air hockey, and wii stations * A climbing wall and attendants * Lots of treadmills, weight machines and free weights. * Trainers to help with equipment or fitness plans. A "Commit to be Fit" program is included for members, with some personal trainer time. Our family membership is $85 or so a month. For an upcharge, we could also access the other YMCA facility at Tripoint. It's clean, well kept, staff are nice. We like it! read more

My review is in regards to the sports programs that the Y offers as I have not partaken of a proper YMCA membership as of yet. When my daughter wanted to play soccer, the first place I thought to take her was the YMCA. I'm not sure exactly how it happened, but I blinked and now instead of just being a soccer Dad, I'm also the coach of U6 soccer at the Y. I'm positive she used her "Daddy please" powers, which I am often powerless to deflect. The Y made it very easy for me as a new coach especially during games. The refs are friendly, patient, and take care to explain any rules to you during the games that you may be shady on. While coaching U6 girls soccer can be compared to herding kittens, I found it fun and rewarding. So much in fact I'm signed up to coach in the Fall as well. If you're looking to have your kiddo try out a sport, the Y is defiantly the way to go! read more

This place is dedicated to children and families. As a single older person, it is not a plus to have kids everywhere, using the equipment and joining in the fitness classes. On Saturdays during soccer season it is impossible to find parking. On the other hand, it is very clean and well maintained with great staff members. Just not a fit for me. read more

Excellent Group X instructors. Love this location. High Fitness class is awesome. The staff is very friendly.

I love this location!! The staff are all so friendly and helpful and the machines are all newer and clean. The lady that is always walking around cleaning does a really great job. The locker rooms are spotless and they don't smell like sweat. Always a plus. I wish they had an indoor pool or a sauna but I don't miss those things as much as I thought I would when I joined. The childwatch staff are AWESOME. Always very engaging with the kids and very patient. read more

This was our 3rd summer doing swim lessons at this location. The first 2 summers were ok. This summer we registered for level 5. The whole month of lessons, they seemed to be teaching level 4. I spoke to the instructor after the lessons. They basically shrugged, and offered no answer. On the last day of lessons, I brought this issue up again, and the instructor said: we can't teach level 5 at this pool, we don't have enough room. I asked what I got for my money then, since my daughter did level 4 previously. Another shrug. A couple weeks later, the person in charge of the swimming program called to try to address my concerns. Basically he said, we will try our best at level 5, and try to communicate with the instructors. He offered no concessions, so I'm still out a bunch of money for pointless lessons. And lots of wasted time. Bottom line...we are Y members, and will be doing our swim lessons someplace else next time. read more

Really awesome facility - daycare on site, wide variety of cardio machines, lots of classes, pool, what more could you ask for? I've been to a few of the ymcas in town, and this is a good one. It's great for the whole family, and the staff is very helpful. Whether you just want to get a quick workout in or you want to overhaul your routine, this Y is great. read more

Excellent place to mingle with other outdoor/indoor enthusiast! the facility is clean and accommodating to your ever want! The staff is friendly and helpful. The programs offered for every age and energy level are appropriate and easily accessible! My whole family enjoys this YMCA! read more

This Ymca was nice and clean. Am used to the Ymca in Houston and they have a lot more classes and water machines to fill up your water bottles. The rock wall was really cool and day care workers were nice. If I lived closer I would go back, it's in a cool park read more

Great family friendly YMCA for workouts; they always have family activities but are sure to include senior activities for grandparents and the like. Helpful staff, and outstanding cleaning staff ensure restrooms, locker rooms are clean on a daily basis. Thank you for being there for your members read more
