Water Aerobics

THE SWIM CENTER WILL BE OPENING FOR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMS TODAY, 9/21/23.


SWIM CENTER UPDATES:

  • The ADA Lift into the Emery G. Weed III Competition pool is temporarily out of service. We are working on getting it fixed and will update this page as soon as we have more information.
  • The Splash Park will be closed Monday 9/18 and Tuesday 9/19 for maintenance.

Water Aerobics | Independent exercise

Ages 14+
Water Aerobics is a fun way to improve fitness while enjoying the pool. This low- to no-impact exercise focuses on aerobic endurance, using the water as resistance, and creating an enjoyable atmosphere amongst community.

Independent Exercise is offered at times when an instructor is not available. Space is available for everyone to come and do their own work out. Because there is no instructor,  the Fitness Swim fee is charged during Independent Exercise times.

CLASS CAPACITY: There will be 3-4 lanes (including the shallow lane), with 8 - 10 participants per lane. We will do our best to keep the limit to 8 per lane, however if one lane only has 2 participants in it, they will be asked to move into the other water aerobics lanes to allow more lap swim lanes.
