PROGRAMS
Maitland Aquatics offer the following fitness programs. *Please be advised the times for fitness programs are subject to change.
Aqua fitness enhances cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance while the water provides added resistance and support with minimal joint strain for a great challenge. No matter what your age, ability or experience, aqua fit is an inclusive activity suitable for everyone. Aquafit classes are held by our Austswim qualified aqua instructors throughout the week and on Saturday mornings at Maitland Aquatic Centre. Come along anytime throughout the term and join in the fun.
Aqua cycling has been designed to take advantage of the many benefits of the aquatic environment. The strongest advantage of the Aqua bike is the utilisation of the waters buoyancy for joint support, which provides protection for those who have special medical concerns such as arthritis. The resistance is determined by four paddle wheels. Resistance is also added by increasing RPM’s through acceleration which is a key component in aquatic conditioning. Additional challenges can be met by a change in seat positions, intervals or power pull techniques. Come along and try the newest fitness program. A requirement of the class is the wearing of aqua gym shoes.
