Water Fitness Programs

Did you know that a 30 minute walk
in the water
is equivalent to a two hour walk on land? 

Water resistance offers an excellent opportunity for muscle toning and body sculpting. Water also cools the body during exercise which reduces stress on the heart and reduces the risk of injury by lessening the impact on weight-bearing joints, muscles, and bones. 

The Alex W. Spears III Family YMCA offers a wide variety of Water Fitness Classes.  These classes run year round and are offered every month.
