Class Descriptions

Deep Water Aerobics (Lap Pool)

Enjoy a deep water workout that has no impact on the joints, yet high intensity to burn calories...very cardiovascular...add a little body sculpting and you have a total body workout. (Prior experience recommended, taught in the lap pool.)

Shallow Water Aerobics

Low impact, mid to high intensity to get blood flowing. A good aerobic workout that combines cardio, muscle toning, strength and stretching.

Arthritis

Work your joints from head to toe in this non-aerobic workout. No impact and rebounding off of the bottom of the pool. American Arthritis Association guidelines followed.

Adaptive Aquatics

Expect low impact exercises with light aerobics. Focus is on range of motion , endurance, balance, working joints, and fun! Those with M.S. and Arthritis are welcome!

Deep Water (Instructional Pool)

This class, which is held in the deep end of the instructional pool, blends aerobic training with muscle conditioning and stretching for a total body workout. Maximum capacity is 15.
