H2O GROUP EXERCISE

Pay the session package price and attend any and all below listed Aqua Aerobic and Low Impact Water Exercise classes!

Aqua-Aerobics (Ages 18+)
Designed for non-swimmers as well as swimmers - regardless of age or physical condition. The buoyant quality of water makes possible movements that can be very difficult on land. Rehabilitation of muscles, increased strength and endurance, release of stress and tension, and improved appearance are all possible through participation in this water exercise program.

Low Impact Water Exercise (Ages 18+)
Participants will be led through a series of exercises which, with the aid of the water’s buoyancy and resistance, can help improve joint flexibility. The water and gentle movements can also help relieve pain and stiffness. A great class for those with arthritis, MS or other conditions in which mobility is limited.
