Water Fitness Personal Training Program
This new water fitness program is designed for those who enjoy the benefits of water exercise, but may not be able to attend our water fitness classes on a regular basis or for those who want to focus on more specific fitness goals. You will meet one-on-one with a certified water fitness instructor who will create a special program based on your personal needs. You and your water fitness personal trainer may choose work on endurance, toning, strength training, flexibility, range of motion, weight lose, specific injury rehab, pre or post-operation needs, or a variety. *Your instructor is not a trained physical therapist, so this program in no way can be substituted for physical therapy that is ordered by your doctor.
