Benefits of Aqua Aerobics for Mobility and Wellness

Aqua aerobics offers numerous advantages, especially for those with mobility challenges. The water's buoyancy supports your body weight, reducing stress on joints while providing natural resistance for strength building.

Why try aqua walking and jogging:

• Reduces joint impact while improving cardiovascular fitness
• Builds muscle strength with water's natural resistance
• Improves balance and stability in a safe environment
• Helps with rehabilitation from injuries or surgery
• Creates opportunities for social connection in a supportive setting

Water-based exercise is particularly beneficial for older adults, those recovering from injuries, or people managing conditions like arthritis. The water's pressure provides a gentle massage effect, helping to improve circulation and reduce swelling.

The comfortable pool temperature at Splashhurst Community Pool makes this an ideal year-round activity regardless of weather conditions outside. Many participants find aqua aerobics not only physically beneficial but also mentally refreshing, as the water environment creates a sense of calm and wellbeing.

No swimming ability is required for this class - the exercises take place in chest-deep water where participants can stand comfortably. The supportive group atmosphere makes it perfect for newcomers to water exercise.
