        Aquatic Fitness

 
Exercising in the water is very beneficial. Water provides an ideal environment for strength training, cardiovascular workouts, balance training, and rehabilitative exercise. Water workouts are low-impact and provide a natural resistance which enables muscle tone, reduces pain and increases flexibility. It is also a favorable prenatal exercise helping with swelling and reducing your bodies stress.

ALL CLASSES ARE 60 MINUTES
