Water Fitness Schedule

Aquatic exercise is a low-impact activity that takes the pressure off your bones, joints, and muscles. Water offers natural resistance, which helps strengthen your muscles. You can even do aquatic exercise if you don't know how to swim. If you're looking for a way to get your workout in, have fun and feel great when you're done, try one of our water fitness classes.
