| Deep Water Fitness |
Deep water classes provide an opportunity to receive a cardiovascular workout without impact on the joints. When suspended up to the chest in water, 75% - 90% of the body weight is cancelled. Water buoyancy supports your weight and moving through the water provides resistance, which in turn strengthens the muscles. This program is held at Meadows Park Pool.
- Days: Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays (class will be held at the Swim
Center on the first Monday of each month)
- Time: 10:00 am - 11:00 am
- Cost (per month): Residents $65.00
