Water Fitness

Water-based fitness appeals to a wide range of ages and abilities. As the aquatic environment provides high resistance and low impact, it is beneficial for providing therapeutic relief to those looking to rehab injuries, improve cardio health, mobility, and flexibility, as well as provide therapeutic relief and pain management for arthritis and chronic pain sufferers. The water also provides resistance to help build up both strength and endurance.

How Deep?

Our shallow water classes (denoted by a big ‘S’ on the water aerobics schedule), are taught at a range of 3.5-5′ feet in depth. The recommendation from the National Arthritis Foundation is that water needs to be at least chest deep to provide the necessary resistance to be beneficial.

We welcome all ages and abilities into our shallow water classes.

We also offer deep water class (denoted by a big letter ‘D’ on the water aerobics schedule). The deep water classes are taught at a range of 7-9′ feet in depth. We recommend participants wear a deep water running belt for added buoyancy, as well as increased resistance in the water.
