Classes Overview
Aqua Aerobics
Aqua Aerobics is a form of exercise which provides cardiovascular conditioning by increasing your pulse and your breathing rate. Every move works against the resistance of the water helping you to burn calories, improve your fitness whilst supporting your joints to avoid putting them under too much strain.
Aqua Circuits
Aqua circuits is for those who prefer a more targeted workout in an Aquatic setting. Aqua circuits classes are the aquatic equivalent to circuits in the gym. Based on a range of activities and movements, participants use equipment such as weights and specialised floats and move between stations to tone specific muscle groups.
Swim Fit
Classes are conducted by a qualified instructor who will work with you to develop a program and swimming programme to suit your abilities and goals. Perfect for improving movement, coordination, muscle tone and swimming stroke technique.
