Water Aerobic Exercise YMCA Water Fitness encourages people of all ages to use the buoyant qualities of water to enhance their physical fitness through exercises. Water can make some movements possible that would be very difficult on land. It is an ideal form of aerobic exercise for all ages and increases physical strength and endurance without putting stress and strain on joints, as in land-based exercise. Swimmers and non-swimmers alike can take part in this type of exercise to reduce emotional stress and tension, improve health and physical appearance, and encourage and improve feelings of well-being and self-esteem. For times, please refer to individual branch pool schedules.
Special Needs Connection(Briggs Community Branch) Parents and children with special needs use this time to recreate and relieve stress from disabilities, leading to relaxed sleep and a decrease in spasticity through the massaging effects of moving through the water. A time to bond and for those with special needs to connect as a family during their “own” time. FREE to the Community Sundays Noon – 1:00 p.m. Free and open to the community
