Participants will be in the dive section of the pool with an aquatic fitness belt or a noodle (bring your own equipment) and socially distancing will be encouraged. We will follow an interval training workout to challenge your strength and get your heart pumping.
This is a vertical water exercise. You do need to be able to enter and exit the pool independently, and maintain vertical body alignment using a buoyancy belt.
