Great outdoors surround this facility. Homeschool friendly classes available throughout the week. Facility is a bit older and locker rooms/showers are dated. Classes as well as gym equipment available. Daycare & activities are amazing. Youth & children love attending and getting P.E. and Art classes on Fridays from 10 a.m. to Noon. Child care facility is attractive and fun! There is an outdoor pool available. The indoor Rock Wall needs some TLC, but looks to be a great attraction. Staff is great at this location, thanks!

So green and nice I love this place

The YMCA continuing to require mask use is wonderful news and I am grateful for the decision to keep them safe spaces for everyone. I just recently was finally comfortable coming back after they added the requirement for children two years and up to wear masks. I missed my workouts so much and as a working single parent of a young child with no family here I depend on child watch. I appreciate all of the wonderful YMCA staff and I’m relieved that they will continue to require masks to be worn at their facilities. That aside, I’ve been a member for about three years now and the YMCA is hands down the best gym for me. I know my son is well cared for during his time in child watch and he enjoys going. Add to that swim lessons, youth sports, parents night out, a safe trick or treat experience during this pandemic, and many more family events. The gym has all that I need and even advanced equipment like the Air Runner that I love. I’m mainly here for the free weights and barbells, but I appreciate the variety of equipment and group classes for anyone. The facility has always been very clean, and since reopening in the pandemic there are many additional well-supplied cleaning stations throughout as well as safety protocols. Great job and thank you!

This place is clean and organized everyone seems to be happy! Jamie in management is really involved in the community, so she knows our teenagers which makes us super comfortable! Great place to workout, swim or be outdoorsy! Lee up the great work!

Love our local YMCA! Super clean, set in a beautiful park, super friendly staff, and AWESOME child watch program! I love the feeling of total relaxation while exercising knowing that my baby is in good hands. My daughter has also done several of the Winter and Spring sports, always a great experience. Cant wait until COVID skedaddles so the Parents Night Out can make a come back, that was also a fantastic perk to being a member!

The kids club and child care programs for parents working out are top notch. My children beg to go again. We also love the splash pad and pool. Swim lessons are one on one and personalized. The gym is smallish, but I love that it is like my own private gym. Modern, well maintained equipment and friendly staff make OP Schnapel one of the best Ys in SATX.

Switching from The Mays Y to this one. The layout is better and everything feels more relaxed and calmer. My kids seem to like the child watch better here as well.

Great Zumba/dance classes with Theresa (Monday), Robyn (Wednesday) and Amber (Friday). A variety of music and all three instructors show modifications for different fitness levels. I feel safe with the distancing and always check the YMCA app for the total number of participants signed up for the class before I go. So far, I have felt safe since the class sizes have not been too large.

I had a great time at the YMCA park, my wife and I a lot of feeding the dear and great place for biking and walking trails.

Clean, well-kept facility. I am relieved they are continuing to encourage members to wear masks and are taking an active part in reducing the spread of COVID. Cardio machines are spaced apart to help with distancing efforts. My kids love going to the child watch, I can workout with peace of mind knowing my kids are well cared for. You can see staff actively cleaning machines, equipment, restrooms, and child watch area throughout the day.

The baseball summer camp was fun for my son.

Great facility. Friendly staff. Not crowded during the day.

We love to be part of the YMCA at OP Schnabel Park. hey are super friendlyand makes us feel right at home.

I love the staff! They are friendly, eager to help, and genuine. My girls love visting!

Quiet place for a good work out :)

Very fun for even the youngest 3-4 year olds. Great way to socialize and affordable. Very nice facility.

YMCA is our home away from home. I know my kids are well cared for by the excellent staff while I get a necessary hour of me time.

The staff and facility are amazing. My children love going to the child watch, and they always anticipate their playtime there. I also have a 7 year old who enjoys getting to workout with me. I would say a good 40% of the equipment was updated with the new year as well! It’s very secure and accommodating. They have such family friendly events! For a stay at home mom, I would recommend the YMCA in a heart beat!

They are always sanitizing the machines, even after I’ve been on it or when there is not many in the facility. I feel confident when I walk in that it’s clean.

YMCA charged my account even though I had spended. When I called to address the charges, I got the run around. Rude staff. On hold for a long time.

The summer programs for my 4 year old have been fantastic and given some structure to her summer. Swim lessons were convenient and she loved going and being challenged to try new things simply by other kids in her class doing tasks she may have been reluctant to do on her own. The staff was responsive to my questions and concerns about where she was initially placed due to her age, and she was able to move to the next group which was much more engaging for her. She has also participated in Spanish Explorers, Tiny Tumblers and Tiny Tinkers. She enjoys the teachers and the friends she has made in each class.

I love that the YMCA is a family oriented place. Everyone is so kind and helpful too. My son loves the kid’s club and the kids classes that they offer as well. I can’t believe we never joined sooner.

Great facility! Great staff! Being part of the greenway is just another bonus!

I cannot say enough about the wonderful staff at this facility. I am always greeted with a smile and willingness to help. There are a variety of group classes for adults and kids. The instructors are very knowledgeable and really care about the customers. I have made so many great friends here and have met many of my weight loss and fitness goals.

Friendly and helpful staff. Weve been involved off and on for a number of years as members, in swim lessons, and most recently, in soccer. The child care center is well-organized, and my kids loved it when they were young. Thinking about soccer, I love the parents pledge before the games. Its a great reminder to focus on sportsmanship and learning how to play the game, rather than focusing on competition and winning. I love that the other teams coach from our last game cheered for our teams goals as well as for his team. Great learning environment.

Nice staff.

This is such a great YMCA! My children love the daycare teachers and children who regularly come here! The staff are very kind and helpful. We love it here! You will too!

Very helpful and polite staff and great sports programs for the kids

I have joined the membership here for 2 years and half. The staffs are so kind to me and my kids. The facilities are good also. And their programs and activities are very helpful and good for kids and family. I love this Y.

Love this place.

My family loves this place, I was first worried about talking my child but after seeing how she wanted to stay there more then come back home with us that it was clear this was not only a great to work out but your kids will love it also.

My wife and I have been going to the gym here for months now and it is one of most well maintained clean gyms you will find in town. It is small but they have all the equipment I need. The day care for babies (

My children and I love going to the Y! I enjoy the classes and child watch! My kids have made friends and love the youth programs! The staff always make my children feel loved and welcomed by addressing them by their names.

My son has taken swim lessons at other YMCA locations, but the swim instructors (John and Lexie) at the YMCA at OP Schnabel were far superior. They were patient with him and worked with him to overcome his fear and anxiety. By the end of the first week, he couldnt wait to go to swim lessons and wanted to go swimming more everyday. As a family who loves the water, I cannot thank you enough for not only teaching him to swim, but building his confidence in and around the water. Thank you!

The place is always clean. Friendly and helpful staff, and a great variety of classes, as well as a rock climbing wall and a huge room full of exercise equipment. Theres always something fun to do with the whole family.

The Y offers a variety of group classes with energetic & dedicated trainers. This is a family friendly gym with welcoming staff. I also have my son enrolled in youth sports, at a discounted rate, since we are members!

We are very satisfied with the organization and how well organized they are. The send weekly communication through email to tell you what to except for the week and games cancellations due to weather. The only thing I dislike is that on our practice days we never have a turf to practice on. We are the only team that has to share a field while others have their own.

First of all, your sports managers and staff are great! And second you offer help to those who can not afford to pay for soccer. It really means a lot to our family to be able to play sports in a safe environment. My children have so much fun with their new friends and look forward to practice and game days! We love the YMCA and are very grateful :-)

Nice, well maintained YMCA with a lot of features. Their child watch is great when you want to work out and need a place for the kids to hang out. Everything they have there is intuitive and easy to use. Sometimes the special programs can be confusing because they, on occasion, change dates and times without updating it on their flyers or on their website. Also, there are so many things going on on any given day that the staff is sometimes a bit vague or confused about where and what is going on when. I have had the experience of being walked all over the park in search of a day camp, but we eventually find where we need to be. Other than that, its a great facility and the staff are always friendly.

Winter volleyball has been well-organized and inclusive of all skill levels for our 10 yr old daughter. The program is family-oriented.

This is the best summer camp Ive found in San Antonio. The drop off starts at 7am, the kids stay active the whole time they are there, they are provided a small breakfast snack and lunch as well as plenty of water. I highly recommend the Y at O.P Schnabel to all my friends and family. Iit is very affordable and worth every cent! Everyone is so respectful and they take the time to learn everyones name. We will definitely be back next year!

Is the second time we use ymsa services, the first time I pay for swimming classes for my daughter and basketball for my son in the summer, when the swimming classes began the teens that I do not think they were qualified to teach, they shouted to the children and I only went to two classes and decided not to return.Basketball classes never started because they did not find anyone to give the classes to the children, then I find out that they are volunteers and are not professional couch, when I put a claim to get my money back because they failed, they said I would be returned to my card and only returned 50% of what I had paidNow we wanted to deal with the gym we have a week and today we were training my 15 year old son and I when one of the people who works there arrives and tells us that my son can not use the appliances until we take an orientation and he asked us to go to have an appointment and my question is because better not give us the orientation before paying to see if we like it or not ?? The staff are very unfriendly

I love going to the Y at O.P. Schnabel. Have been going almost a year, and itd part of my daily routine. The people are super nice and helpful, the classes are excellent. No need to go any further, or anywhere else.

Awesome childcare workers, staff always helpful and understanding. Classes are pretty good, pool and splash pad are clean even in busy times. Equipment is well maintained and cleaned regularly. There has never been a time where I couldnt ask for help and get some immediately. Best gym for me, and everyone else I have gone with.

My kids love being there during summer camp. I love that they are outside all day, like I was as a kid. Instead of staring at screens inside.......

The youth sports programs are not good at all. The referees, staff, and director cassandra cushing do not listen to any concerns and they insist they are right no matter what the facts and truth are. Im not going to get into the situation because its a long story. This place makes me sick.

HAILEY AND MATT R. are so helpful! They personify customer service. Truely. The clarification on add on members, ease of sign up...theyre awesome.

Lots of equipment available. Its really quiet in there. It would be nice to have some music on in the gym area.

I had found this gym convenient for me during 3 years, the place and machines are clean and new, the staff is kind and friendly. Unfortunately, the situation is not the same now that my baby joined the babycare area. I am afraid the staff might not be the proper to look after babies as young as mine (6 months when he started attending and 8 currently). I understand that it is difficult to look after such young babies but they are missing basic things like dipper changing, one of them even ask me how long does the milk lasts after prepared or being touched by saliva. He was getting used to the place during the first month,I had to go back to the room to comfort him while training but he is doing well now. However, the last time after 15 min of training someone texted me to go back to the room to comfort him, I saw the text 15 min later since I was busy on the treadmill. When I went into the room my baby was sobbing while sleeping.They told me that he was crying because many other where crying, and he cried during all that time. After saying that, my baby burped hard and threw up because of the long time he cried and swallowed air. On top of everything he had a full dirty diaper. I talked to the staff and manager this evening after I found a single girl looking after two crying babies and another one, the system wasnt working on her room and she asked me to go to another one to check in while a could leave my baby there because she couldnt leave the room I preferred to wait for someone else, there wasnt a way that she could manage look after the four of them. I was told that they were going to work on the situation. Finally, before my baby joined the gym a member of the team told me that the toys are sanitized every time a child leaves the room and I found out that the room is cleaned twice per day only, definitely the room needs new toys, they look old and dirty.I started to feel that I might be waisting my money because my baby is not having a good time and I am interrupting my training after 20 minutes of having started, I think the area needs more people to assist the kids and better prepared for simple tasks.

Our entire family is active and engaged at the Y. We appreciate the kids’ programs, the variety of equipment to use, and the group exercise courses offered. Looking forward to the summer and enjoying the pool and splash pad. Overall a great facility and excellent staff!

So far so good. The staff have been really nice and friendly. They helped my kids on the rock wall. The facilities are clean and updated. Price is great as well.

The staff is friendly and welcoming.

Great outdoor program. My little enjoyed the variety of activities such as nature walks to swimming in the pool.

There has been changes to YMCA that prompt me to give this location 3 out of 5 star rating. Staff improved but much needed improvements needed in order for me to give a 5 or even a 4. They did made improvement on the cardio equipment, but they are limited on the amount of weight machine they have. For the free weights area, space is limited. Good luck working out between 6 pm to 7 pm.

Recent overcrowding in the Senior/Silver Sneakers classes are causing unsafe conditions. I would no longer recommend the Wednesday class. The last Wednesday weight class I attended was so overcrowded there was not room for full range of motion. Again. So far since a large group suddenly came into the class a couple of months ago no solution has been attempted. I pulled a muscle in my side due to the inability to achieve full range of motion caused by one young woman who refused to make certain those on both sides of her had space to move and in fact said she didn’t care if someone got hurt. I reported it, they say they talked with her but who wants this kind of hassle when you just came to work out? I have worked out my entire life and haven’t seen this disregard for safety in group classes before. This is twice at two different SA YMCAs I have experienced a younger person coming into a senior class and behaving as though the seniors didn’t belong there and injury to one senior from being pushed into a wall but was too embarrassed to admit or report it. So far I have not heard safety guidelines being reinforced during group classes. This organization can’t claim to be “ensuring that everyone has the chance to learn, grow and thrive regardless of age” or the values of caring, honesty,respect, responsibility and not include the Seniors in the community. Those of any age should be welcome in any class unless those attending are attending with the attitude that the seniors in their community should get out of their way if their class time is more convenient for them or are obligated to accept unacceptable behavior that causes further hazards to over crowded classes.I work out at a higher level than some because of a lifetime of activity however I was taught long ago to respect the safety of myself and others by ensuring adequate space between myself and others and being aware of hazards. In this class I have wiped up spilled water off the floor, had to tell someone standing barely a foot away that she needs at least an arms length for safety as different people have different work out speeds and picked up wet plants tracked in by others so they do not slip and fall. So be aware that when working out at a San Antonio YMCAs you are responsible for your own safety, guidelines are not being taught and reinforced for the group workouts and be ready to have a back up plan for showing up to a group workout that is so over crowded you may be at risk.Be aware that if you are fortunate enough to be working out at a higher level you are responsible for watching that you maintain a safe distance and watch for those who may not feel safe in working out next you. It won’t hurt you to locate to a place on the floor where you won’t feel restricted and they won’t fear being knocked over or thrown off balance. There is always another class at another location. The good thing I can say is that I noticed some of our older members came back after this was reported and the director did seem to respond with action. That does not change the fact that if you are a senior you should look up safety guidelines for group workouts before you start your class so you are aware of when you need to take action and when the actions of others need to be addressed or reported. Be aware that while working out with friends is social time it is not a social event. Holding up the class by standing around chatting instead of listening to the instructor and getting to know others in the class is healthier for you. Taking up class time and being unaware that you are delaying the class while you discuss your lunch plans will keep you from getting to know others, create hard feelings & keep others from wanting to know you. When people new to working out in groups come unaware of safety guidelines they are a hazard to themselves and others. Be a part of the solution.

Outdoors! My children attended several camps over the summer as well as visits with grandparents but wit little time outside. Sure its hot, but not all day! Ymca did a good job at keeping the kids safe. Before the week started they were whining about the idea of being outside all day. By the end of the week they didnt want to leave.

This place is just ridiculous! You better know what dates you are booking for a birthday party because they will not give your deposit if need to cancel! I made the mistake of scheduling my daughters birthday party on Mothers Day without my knowledge and put the deposit to hold the space. When I tried to change it they only had one date to work with but it was early morning and limited spacing. I did not get any help at all from the manager or staff and was told I should have known if it was Mothers Day. Please be wise in your decision!!!

The open swim is ridicules. Never in the morning. Always closed for swim lessons. Even in the afternoon some days only from 1pm to 3;45. Than close for camp swimming etc. There is only very few hours where you can actually swim. So if you are not off work between 1pm and 3 pm you are out of luck. I pay to much to not even be able to use the pool. Swimming lessons for kids is great. But they do not have to be every single morning. I will be leaving this Y.

Love it Ive been going for a few years and I think its an awesome place if you are single or have a family.

Love that staff knows my son by name and so patient with him he loves going to the gym with me especially to play in the treehouse

Love Silver Sneakers activities. Enjoy the gym. Looking forward to water aerobics.

Great family environment. Amazing staff. Sports programs are fantastic for kids.

The gym is well maintained and there are plenty of machines and free weights, so there’s never a long wait (even during peak times). VERY friendly and helpful staff, too!

Everyone is always so helpful and polite. They know me and my children by name and always have smiles on their faces.

+Family friendly+child watch included (limited hours)+friendly staff+not intimidating-not open very late (because it is in a public park)-could use some more floor space but it is adequate.

Love itGetting a membership is one of the best things we have done. Our family is staying fit and much much more.So worth it

Love the gym and pool. The bike trails are nice for me and my son as well.

Very clean location! Great classes too!

Our family always enjoyed the activities available to us. We utilized the gym mostly, but made a handful of visits to the pool. Weve since become members at a gym thats closer to home. Zero complaints about this Y.

I love this place. A home away from home, that keeps me active and mostly healthy.

Everyone is so friendlyAnd the instructors are fun and encouraging!Love the water aerobics!

Our family loves this location with the variety and kid programs!

Facility was nice. And as I talk to the coordinator who was helping me name (Lauren) I had explained to her that it was a bit pricey for me at the moment and I only want to try it out for the month!! she agreed with me completely at the time. Due to the times available for daycare they were just not a match for my schedule. I had called and confirmed with somebody over the phone that I would not be going again. I only went the one time.... repeat I only went one time !! and paid for the month... ((I was convinced that I would not be on a monthly withdrawal on the time of signing up!! )) or I would have not done so ! here it is March and I just received a bank statement saying that they had charged me the last 2 months as well. called to try and talk to somebody about it, it ends up that it is only my loss so I am now out $160 ! Thanks Lauren !! ImVery displeased !!Ok Im pissed ! Thats 4boxs of pampers ! Thanks Lauren !

Great place focusing on faith and giving back to the community. People are friendly and respectful.

I went to summer camp here for the first few weeks of summer. Terrible. The staff were really rude and they dont even care about the safety of their kids. We went biking one day, and they didnt even have us wear helmets which is a big safety hazard. I ended up getting into a biking accident and my mom took me out immediately.

Attention attention will the director please stand up! We parents pay way too much money for you to neglect plus all the donations handed to the YMCA! We understand that the facade of the building and entrance has be eye pleasing etc. But in the back where a lot of the action and activities happen is just way too neglected. On the weekends there are many activities and very few places to park Ive included a picture of a tree that is taken 3 parking spaces! I see you guys hire teenagers so cheap labor is a must for this racket. So my complaints are cut and trim back trees and anything else blocking parking spaces. The restrictions toilet has know seats or toilet paper. And I dont even want to speak of the restroom filth no paper etc. Go ahead and leave the cheap labor and non of this stuff gets fixed.

Great coaches and staff. We love it

Lots of programs, great classes, not overcrowded, reasonable membership pricing and corporate discounts, clean facility, helpful staff

Not perfect, which many complain about.. But overall it is really fun especially for kids! The pool and splash pad is my favorite.

They have really good outdoor facility and workers, and the guy named kevin was very helpful with anything i needed

My son is going to summer camp and swimming lessons this summer and he absolutely loves it.

Great group excercise classes. Trainers are motivators.

My family has loved everything we have done at the Y! Swimming, water park, soccer league, workout, child care, everything!

Very clean and up to date equipment. Friendly staff

Awesome trails for MTB. Consisting of Rocky points, a few drops, and inclines. Overall pretty kool ride.

Great facility. And cozy spot

My son plays U8 soccer on a league here and my husband and I coach. We love it, it is so much better than the NYS league we did last season! The staff are very nice and very helpful all the time, the facilities are nice and the parking is more than adequate (theres field parking in the back). We didnt want to become members because of the high membership fee but the more time we spend there, the more we reconsider it! A park, a gym, sports, a pool, and free childcare...its a pretty good deal!

Awesome place for all family.

This is the ultimate gym. Family orientation is a plus.

Nice place to work out

Love the childrens aquatic programs and play areas!

Came here for my grandkids soccer game and it was nice

Top notch facility with an excellent staff.

My hubby and step son LOVE this organization!!!

Coach Tyson is amazing with swimming lessons!!

Easy accessible, fun and great instructors.

Perfect place for doing exercise, its inside a Park

Love my Y

I like everything about this gym except its a bit pricey. I think for the two of us its around $80/month.

Worst place ever ..if you want to book a party here dont ! The life guards are rude and ugly .on top of that you will be paying 500 bucks for 2 hrs worth of swimming ...but if it starts to thunder even a tad bit they make you get out of the pool even though you paid the 500 and even though its not raining ...its a waste of money .been hosting a party for the past 3 years here and didnt get my moneys worth because of that nor do they compensate you back for time lost or money ..worst worst worst place ever ...cool slide though but the lifeguards are really rude they yell at you really ugly .
