Aqua Aerobics

Lapping the pool is not the only way to get a workout in the water. Why not try something new with our water workouts. Combining aqua aerobics with strength and conditioing moves, a workout in the water will get your heart pumping without putting pressure on the joints.

Our Aqua Aerobics classes run every Tuesday 12:00pm-12:45pm and Wednesday 6:15pm-6:55pm.

Walking Netball

Whether you want to get back to playing netball or fancy trying something new, Walking Netball sessions are fun and inclusive, with plenty of social benefits in addition to it being a fantastic way to exercise.

Walking Netball is a game just like the name suggests - at a walking pace. You can walk as fast as you like, but jumping is not allowed.

Walking Netball sessions run every Sunday at 11am.
