Aqua class descriptions

Exercise classes in a pool!

Aqua circuits

This all-time favourite class is a great interval training workout. Mix up your routine with a variety of body conditioning and cardio-vascular exercise stations. Circuits work nearly every element of fitness from speed to strength. Our instructors will motivate you when the going gets tough, but be prepared to be challenged.

Aqua cycle

An underwater spin on a traditional cycling class, Aqua cycle involves pedalling against the resistance of the water, while the buoyancy reduces the impact on your muscles and joints.

Aqua fit

Experience all the benefits of an aerobics class but in the water. Water adds support and resistance to your body and our instructors will make sure this resistance is maximised to increase the intensity of your workout. If you thought a water workout was easy, then think again.

Aqua jog

Running in water is a great way to add some variety to your exercise routine. This class uses aquajog belts to help you keep your balance upright in the water. You can work at your own pace, so whether you are a regular land runner looking for something to compliment your training regime, or you want some low impact exercise, this class can be tailored to suit you.

Aqua jump

Using underwater trampolines, this instructor led class is filled with fun, high energy and will give you a great workout.

Aqua pole

Using water resistance for a waistline workout and buoyancy to replicate gymnastic style flexibility and improve core strength.

Aqua Zumba

Splash your way into shape with an invigorating low-impact aquatic exercise. Known as the Zumba® "pool party", Aqua Zumba gives new meaning to the idea of a refreshing workout. Integrating the Zumba philosophy with traditional aquatic fitness disciplines, Aqua Zumba® blends it all together into a workout that's cardio-conditioning, bodytoning and most of all, exhilarating beyond belief.

Tidal

This 30 minute intense water based class, high intensity/low impact making it suitable for a variety of fitness levels and abilities.

Your family's safety - supervising children

We operate an admissions policy to ensure a safe environment for everyone.

Children under eight years must be accompanied by an adult. Children who are eight years and older can be admitted to a swimming pool without an accompanying responsible adult but should be able to swim 25 meters confidently.

Our supervision ration for children under 8 years is as follows:

Pool type	Children's age	Number of adults
All other pools	0 to 3 years	One adult per one child
All other pools	4 to 7 years	One adult per two children

This policy applies to children under the age of 8 years and is specifically for our general swimming, fun sessions and pool parties.

The following will be refused entry to the pool (or possibly to the whole building at the discretion of the Operations Manager on duty);

No child under the age of 8 years to be admitted to a swimming pool unless accompanied by a responsible parent or adult 16 years or older.
A responsible adult is defined as someone aged 16 years or older and capable of supervising the child in a competent manner.
Where children under the age of 8 years are accompanied by a responsible adult, a maximum number of two children per adult is permitted for children aged 4-7 years and one child per one adult if the child is under 4 years.

The following will be refused entry to the pool (or possibly to the whole building at the discretion of the Operations Manager on duty);

any child who is, or appears to be, under the age of 8 years who is, or appears to be, unaccompanied by a responsible person 16 years or over
any child under the age of 8 years who is accompanied only by someone who is or appears to be under 16 years
