AquaFit begins at George Bolton Swimming Centre

Now trialling at George Bolton Swimming Centre, the City of Burnside’s Fitness in the Park program has a new class activity – AquaFit.

AquaFit or aqua aerobics is a low-impact exercise that improves cardiovascular fitness, strength and flexibility while being gentle on the joints. The water provides natural resistance, helping to build muscle and enhance mobility, making it an ideal workout for people of all ages and fitness levels, or those recovering from injury.

Spearheaded by Burnside Ward Councillor Jenny Turnbull following community requests, AquaFit joins the Fitness in the Park series that also includes land-based activities like yoga, Zumba and EasyFit. These classes take place in the beautiful parklands and reserves across the City of Burnisde.

AquaFit instructor Katherine said it was great to see a full and enthusiastic class for last Thursday’s first session and that the classes will be a relaxed atmosphere supporting all skill and experience levels.

With a packed out first session, this Thursday morning class time will fill out fast for coming sessions. If you are interested in taking part, register your spot now.
