Aquatic Exercise is performing planned specific movements in the water, generally in an upright position. Because of the water’s buffering abilities, this type of exercise provides a protective cushioning that minimizes impact compared to land-based exercise. Water also provides at least 12 times the resistance of air. Moving the legs and arms under the water helps to promote muscular strength and endurance, as well as flexibility.
Fee: $6 per visit or $57 for a 20-visit pass for Black Hawk College employees, students and senior citizens (age 55), $61 for the general public.
