Program details

Dive into a high-energy, low-impact workout with Aquafit4Life. Held at Proswim, this program leverages water resistance to provide a comprehensive workout that is gentle on the joints.

We combine upbeat music and sing-a-longs to create a vibrant, social atmosphere.

Class Structure (45 Minutes):

• Warm-up (10 mins): Water-based movements to increase the heart rate safely.
• Core Session: Exercises curated for heart health, balance, and increased mobility.
• Cool-down (5 mins): Gentle rhythmic movements to lower the heart rate.

All aquatic routines follow national physiotherapy guidelines, focusing on bone density and stabilization. It’s the perfect place to have fun, get fit, and make friends.
