Swimming is an almost ideal way to stay in shape. If you don’t already swim, it’s not too late to start. And if you don’t like to swim, there’s a wide range of other workouts you can do in water. We offer water aerobics, arthritis classes and adult lap swimming groups.

If you’re looking for exercise that improves heart and lung capacity, but is gentle on your joints, swimming is a top choice. Aim to swim laps for 20 to 40 minutes at a pace that keeps your heart rate up. Start slowly; initially you may need to rest between laps. Over time, work out longer, preferably using different strokes and speeds. Because swimming places less demand on the heart than running and other sports, your heart rate won’t go up as high. But you are still getting a work out. With our indoor pool you can do your water exercises no matter the weather outside.
