LAP SWIM
Continuous swimming back and forth lengthwise in the pool. Must share lanes or circle swim during lap swim. Can not perform activities in the pool which will stop other from swimming laps.

LAP SWIM ETIQUETTE
Make sure lap swimmers acknowledge your presence before entering the lane to swim. If lap swimmer is swimming, dangle your feet/legs on the side of the lap line, let the swimmer complete a couple laps, ask which side they would prefer to be on, then enter. All lap swimmers must share lanes and circle swim when necessary. When two people are sharing the lane, it will be split. The entrance of the 3rd person immediately changes to circle swimming. Circle swimming is complete by staying on the right side of the lane at all times.

DEEP WATER AEROBICS
This workout can be intense, be ready to get your heart rate up and break a sweat in the water. We have water bells of differing resistance, as well as kick-boards and water noodles to vary the work outs and keep them interesting. It will be a challenge to your muscles and balance! High cardio, low impact!

WATER AEROBICS
You will feel energized after working out with this group. Cardiovascular exercises will increase your heart rate, strength training with resistant water bells will help keep those muscles toned up. A great way to keep in shape as you spend time with friends.

ARTHIRITIS AQUATICS
Hip surgery, knee surgery, past or upcoming and want to strengthen and or loosen; this class is for you! We work all muscle groups with range of motion exercises, helps stamina, coordination, and balance.
