AI CHI

Research has shown that being submerged in water at neck-depth increases oxygen consumption by 7%-25%. Ai Chi uses a combination of deep breathing and slow, broad movements of arms, legs, and torso to provide exercise and relaxation.          

AQUACISE

Get a good workout that is easy on the joints yet provides great toning and increases flexibility. No swimming ability is needed, and the steps make easy access to the pool. 

WATER CONDITIONING

This is a beginning aquatic class. It will involve exercises for core strengthening & overall toning while placing on emphasis on protecting the back.  It is a no-impact class done in the shallow end. All levels and non-swimmers welcome. 

AQUA-COMBO

Great cardiovascular benefits of Aqua-jog, combined with the flexibility of Aquacise, make this a very popular class! Participants should be comfortable in deep water with a noodle and/or flotation belt.
