Aquatics 

Have you been looking for an exercise regimen that is unlike other workouts, and is fun 

and invigorating? Check out aquatic exercise! We have many different options to 

choose from that may fit your needs. 

Water exercise has many unique advantages. Water resistance helps increase your 

muscular strength and endurance, improves flexibility by stretching your muscles, and 

tones your entire body. Water workouts are designed to meet the needs of everyone, 

regardless of fitness level. Not only will you be getting a wonderfully relaxing workout, 

but you will meet new and exciting people. Continuing Education offers Aqua Fitness 

classes several times each week. It is advised to consult your physician prior to enrolling 

in any exercise program. 

Aquatic programs are held in the Bloomer Sullivan Gymnasium indoor heated pool. 

Lockers (you provide the lock), showers, and electrical outlets are available in the private 

dressing rooms. Lifeguards are on duty. 

WATER AEROBICS FOR ADULTS (Morning, Noon, or Evening) 

Start your day with an invigorating water aerobics workout in the Southeastern indoor 

pool. Water aerobic exercise is very enjoyable. You can relax and unwind while 

improving your physical conditioning in our soothing waters. There are deep and 

shallow water exercises, but it is your preference as to where you will work out. 

Flotation belts are provided for deep-water participants, as well as, leg weights for those 

participants who would like more resistance in their workouts. Sign up today! 

COMMUNITY LAP SWIM (Day or Evening) 

Improve your physical fitness and swimming form, or just take it easy in the water. 

However, you do it; swimming can improve your health by increasing your flexibility, 

strength, and circulatory endurance or by relieving all that stress and tension. Meet old 

and new friends in a relaxing, non-competitive environment. Due to the nature of this 

program, only a small number of participants allowed. Lifeguards are on duty. 

WOMEN’S WELLNESS WATER WORKOUT (WWWW) 

If you need a workout program to relieve physically limiting conditions such as arthritis 

or lower back pain, this class may be for you. If you want to improve your physical 

conditioning and flexibility, this program is definitely for you! Time in the water is 

invigorating, therapeutic, and relaxing. It is recommended that you consult your 

healthcare physician before beginning any exercise regimen. This class is for women 

only.

ARTHRITIS FOUNDATION AQUATIC PROGRAM (DEADLINE TO ENROLL MAY 30) 

If you have a form of arthritis or a related condition, your physician may 

recommend that you begin an exercise program to help improve your flexibility 

and decrease pain. If you’re searching for a program that will lessen joint 

stiffness, increase your stamina and still be fun, aquatic exercise may be the 

answer for you. Water exercise is especially good for people with arthritis, 

because it allows you to exercise without putting excess strain on your joints and 

muscles. The AFAP gives you the opportunity to do gentle activities in warm 

water, with guidance from a trained instructor. Although it is a nonclinical 

program (one that will not replace a prescribed regimen of therapeutic exercise), 

past participants have enjoyed some physical benefits, such as decreased pain and 

stiffness. Course: AFAP 2X (June)

recommendation that they repeat that level as a refresher before they move on to 

the next level.

the six Learn-to-Swim levels. At this level, participants begin developing good 

attitudes about swimming and water safety, good swimming habits and safe 

practices in and around the water.

strength building and finally, flexibility. This challenging class is great for any 

fitness level, age, or size, because variations are provided to challenge a wide 

range of abilities. Boot camp not only pushes you physically, but the friendships 

you'll make keep you coming back for more! REQUIRED Equipment: Wellpadded
