Water aerobics and aquatic fitness are good for your health!

Exercising in water builds cardiovascular stamina, strength, and flexibility,  increases circulation and can help you rehabilitate healing muscles and joints. YWCA Aquatics offers a variety of instructor-led water aerobics and aquatic fitness classes in our pool all week long with different intensity and skill levels.  Non-swimmers are always welcome in all of our shallow end classes.
