Therapy Pool
Jump Right In – The Water is Great!
Our popular Water Fitness classes take place in the Recreational Pool (86 degrees) and Therapy Pool (91 degrees). The properties of water provide low impact to the weight-bearing joints, increase circulation, and strengthen muscles in all directions of movement. Aquatic exercise is an appropriate and effective option for beginners, weekend warriors, and athletes. Classes focus on cardiovascular stamina, strength, and flexibility.
*Participants must be able to independently perform skills and must be ambulatory with or without an assistive device.
