Exercise in the water is safe and easy for everyone! Plus, the weightlessness of water takes the painful pounding of gravity completely away. Water is the way to gain range of motion and burn calories despite aches and pains.
All water fitness classes are FREE to Y Members! These classes are offered continuously throughout the year with only a break for pool closure and Christmas holiday.
Listed below are our session dates for our classes that run for 8 weeks at a time.
