• Shape Up with Sarge – A well rounded workout that incorporates stretching, balance strength and cardio exercises in a fast paced, fun routine to improve physical fitness.  Equipment is used to increase water resistance.
• Hearts @ Work – A moderate to high intensity water aerobic workout designed to increase cardio-respiratory fitness.  This shallow water class uses range-of-motion stretches for improving flexibility.  Water resistant exercises are used to develop muscle tone and strengthen core muscles.
• Flexibility & Fitness – This low to moderate intensity shallow water workout uses water resistant aerobic activities and range-of-motion exercises that enable participants to increase flexibility, tone muscles and improve balance.  Participants are encouraged to work at their own pace.
• Arthritis Water Walk – A shallow water program of moderate water movements and gentle stretches that allow participants to strengthen muscles for increased endurance and reducing joint pain.  Exercises designed to improve joint flexibility and balance.
• Deep Water Workout – A no impact class providing high resistance for the total body.  Flotation belts are provided to allow balancing the body in vertical or horizontal positions to maneuver in the water.  Non-swimmers can participate with confidence as they develop and improve flexibility.  Deep water provides a resistance environment for strengthening major muscles, the core muscles of the abs and back, as well as the arms and legs.
