Aquatic Classes

Classes FREE with membership 

Class Schedule: available at the bottom of this page.

Instructors: Beverly Tate, Tera Scott and Barbara Hawkins. 

 

Aquatic Fitness Classes Age Policy: The minumum age to participate in a class without supervision is 15 years of age. Children 10-14 years of age wishing to participate in classes must have a parent or guardian in the water participating in class with them. All class participants are expected to participate in a safe and non-disruptive manner. Detemination will be at the discretion of the class instructor. 

 

ARTHRICISE: No swimming skills are required as all exercises are done in water waist-to-shoulder depth. This class is designed for participants with mild to serious arthritic problems. Emphasis is placed on joint flexibility and range of motion exercises. Exercises are specifically designed by the Arthritis Foundation and the national YMCA among others.

Deep Definition: This is a 45 minute instructor led class that takes place in the deep end of the pool. No swimming skills are required as a swim flotation belt is worn during class to keep your head above water. This class is not intended for those who are uncomfortable in deep water or dislike getting water in their face and hair. Deep Definition is a high intensity, full body workout focusing on muscle toning and cardio. Exercises in class may be modified for those with specific needs.

 

 

AQUACISE: A great low impact aerobic workout. The exercises are designed to increase muscle tone, flexibility, strength and endurance. Swimming is not required. Use of aqua equipment creates more resistance.
