Aqua Zumba
Water Fitness

Known as the Zumba “pool party”, Aqua Zumba gives new meaning to the idea of an invigorating workout. Splashing, stretching, twisting, even shouting and laughing are often heard during a class. Integrating the Zumba formula and philosophy with traditional aqua fitness disciplines, Aqua Zumba blends it all together into a safe, challenging, water-based workout that’s cardio-conditioning, body toning and most of all fun! It is not your typical aerobics class; you will dance in the water at your own speed. Aqua Zumba is exercise in disguise. Registration is required for this class (water fitness cards will not be accepted). Park on the west side (back of the building), enter Door 7.
