Water Fitness
Strength. Endurance. Range of motion. These are the basics of physical health. Water Fitness classes are held in the shallow lanes of the large pool or in the warm pool. Shallow water means classes have some impact on your joints and bones. Hand buoys are used to increase upper body resistance. The class sequence includes warm-up, aerobic phase, and a cool down, as well as specific body part isolation. The warm pool class is also a good choice for people with arthritis. The class is self-paced, making it appropriate for any fitness level.
Hydro-Fit
Runners do it. Pregnant women do it. In fact, just about anyone can do it! Hydro-Fit is a deep water, non-impact, high energy class in the big pool at TAC. Flotation cuffs around your ankles (or float belts around your waist) keep you buoyant and increase your lower body resistance. Hand buoys and water gloves are provided for upper body resistance and help to isolate abdominal muscles. The class sequence includes warm-up, aerobic phase, abdominal element, and a stretch and cool down. This class is appropriate for all ages and fitness levels. First time participants are encouraged to come to class a few minutes early to be shown how to use the equipment.
Deep Water Running
This running workout is designed around a typical track workout with warm-up, range of motion movements, sprint intervals, and strength/toning segment. It is great for all ages and abilities.
Tri-Aqua
Water yoga? Not quite, but close. TAC's Tri-Aqua is a slow moving class incorporating elements of Pilates, Kick Boxing, Tai Chi, and Yoga. It is a full body and mind workout. The class brings awareness to the breath and balance, while moving through postures, strength moves and range of motion moves in the water. This non-aerobic class in the warm pool is a perfect starting point for new water class participants or for those recovering from injury or other therapeutic conditions; it is appropriate for all ages and fitness abilities.
Water Walking
Think slow, deliberate motion. This non-aerobic class in the warm pool is a perfect starting point for new water class participants or for those recovering from injury or other therapeutic conditions. The class sequence includes stretching and resistance training using the weight of the water in combination with hand buoys. This class is ideally suited for beginner fitness levels or those who may have physical limitations. The water walking class is a close knit group who loves to welcome new participants.
Kids Swim Workout
One-Two-Three-Jump! This supervised lap swimming class, offered to kids able to swim laps, is a blast! Kids have fun while improving their stroke, breathing, and endurance. Participants must be able to swim at least one lap, using any stroke, in the big pool. KSW is not a swim team. It is a group of kids who like to swim for the fun, and the health of it. There is no registration or fee for this class. Students may drop in at any time to enjoy a supervised swim workout.
Water Babies
This class is offered to children ages 6 months to 3 years, and their parents. We sing songs and play games to teach the basics of water adjustment, safety, and swimming techniques.
All Workout in the pools:
The pools at TAC are "workout only" except during designated times. Direct adult supervision is required in the pools at all times for kids under 14 years of age. Members 8 years and older may swim or walk laps during All Workout. See pool schedule for times or contact Shannon Brown.
New extended Family Hours
Saturday (7:00 am - 3:00 pm) and Sunday (9:00 am - 3:00 pm), families with kids are invited to play in the racquetball courts or in the gym. This is the only time children under 8 are allowed in these areas unless they are in a TAC class. Children under 8 are not allowed on the Fitness Floor at any time.
