Aqua Zumba

Take a dip and add a low impact, energetic exercise to your fitness routine! How it works: Aqua Zumba® combines the philosophy of Zumba® with the resistance offered by water, for an aquatic party that no one can miss. Benefits: During an Aqua Zumba® class, there is less impact on the joints, so you can really let go. Water generates a natural resistance, so each step demands more from you, and helps you tone your muscles. Register monthly, or drop-in for $15/time.
