Aqua Cycle
Aqua Cycling is a fun, full-body exercise that is easy on the joints and great for your muscles and overall toning. We use specially designed bike frames which sit stationary at the bottom of the pool. Sitting half out of the water, your legs pedal away, enjoying the benefits of underwater exercise. The water provides benefits as the support and gentle pressure speeds up blood circulation and helps eliminate fat, burning more calories per hour than an average spinning class. Muscle soreness is reduced, and cellulite areas are targeted as the cool water massages while you move. As with any underwater exercise, your joints are subjected to far less stress. Aqua Cycling will have you feeling fitter, stronger, healthier, and happier than most land-based exercises.
- Mondays, January 5 to February 23 - 12:15 pm to 1:00 pm - $56
- Tuesdays, January 6 to February 24 - 12:30 pm to 1:15 pm - $64

Yoga Classes
Chair Yoga
Chair Yoga is a specific form of yoga as therapy developed by Lakshmi Voelker-Binder in 1982, practiced sitting on a chair, or standing using a chair for support.
