POOL EXERCISES AT PEPPER GEDDINGS
Hydroaerobics: The perfect blend of water and workout! This is a low impact, fast paced aerobic program designed to improve heart-lung capacity, flexibility and muscular strength. The class is held in the shallow end of the pool, so no swimming skills are needed. Classes meet from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays and from 7:00 to 7:45 p.m. Monday and Wednesday at Canal Street. Drop-in fees are $5 for city residents, $8 for non-city residents, or get an 18-visit punch card for $45 for city residents or $75 for non-city residents.
Off The Deep End: Similar to Hydroaerobics, Off The Deep End moves the workout to deep water. This is a high intensity, non-impact aerobic exercise class. This program is an excellent cross-training and rehabilitative opportunity. The water workout helps build muscular strength, flexibility and cardiovascular fitness. Class members wear buoyancy vests for added floatation. Participants should be comfortable in deep water. Classes meet Tuesday and Thursday form 9:00 9:45 a.m. and are taught by an AEA certified Aquatic Exercise Instructor. Fee: Drop-in $5 City Resident /$8 Non City Resident, or $45 City Resident / $75 Non City Resident for an 18-visit punch card.
Masters Swimming: A personalized training program for intermediate to advanced swimmers. Learn or master the proper technique for all competitive strokes, starts and turns. See the Aquatics flyer for dates and times or call for details.
