Water..... the fountain of youth
Water is instinctively playful for most people - it gives a sense of freedom and adventure and brings out the child in us. Because it's fun to be in the water, it provides a non- threatening environment in which to exercise.
Most participants cannot resist the urge to play with the water as soon as they enter the pool. Like any activity, if you enjoy it you want to do it again and again. In an aqua fitness class it's fun and a total experience of wellness. Social and physical needs are addressed along with healthy lifestyle issues such as stress.
