Twin Lakes Wellness Opportunities

Join our fluid and functional water fitness classes! Water activities provide stretching and movements to tone and strengthen muscles, increase flexibility and build aerobic endurance.

Benefits of Water Exercise
Society's aging population and interest in low impact exercise has increased the popularity of aqua fitness. Water exercise has proven to be valuable therapy for rehabilitation, post surgery exercise or injury recovery. The water provides a comfortable environment for participants with special needs. Exercise in shallow or deep water eliminates impact and protects joints. 
-You do not need to be a swimmer to participate in water aerobics. 
-The water provides a natural body massage. 
-Each individual can work at their own pace. 
-Helps improve posture and relieve stress.
