ADULT AQUATIC PROGRAMS



 

Please attend your scheduled class, as make up classes will not be available.

BEGINNING ADULT (45 min.)

This class is for adults who don’t feel at ease in the water.  Non-swimmers are taught basic swimming skills and water safety. 

 

INTERMEDIATE ADULT (45  min.)

This is a class for adults who are comfortable in the water and who would like to work on stroke development and endurance.  It’s great for those who have swimming skills and who would like to improve their techniques.

 

MASTERS SWIMMING (60 min.)

This Masters Swimming program is designed to help people get and stay in shape while improving their strokes and overall swimming skills.  Utilizing various training principals such as effective heart rate training methods, training cycles, interval training and other proven training techniques will allow athletes to continually raise their fitness level and improve their proficiency.  For those swimmers interested in competition, you may register with the N.J. Masters team and participate in meets through the U.S. Masters Swimming program.  Swimmers may also be eligible to swim in the YMCA Masters National swimming competition.  Competing in meets is not required to participate in the Masters Swimming program.

 

PRIVATE LESSONS (30 min.)

Private lessons are available at all branches.  Lessons are available for students ages 4 and up, and can be customized upon request.  Semi-private lessons are also available for two students of the same ability.  Please contact the facility where you are interested in taking the lessons for available times and days.  Contact the Aquatic Director at each branch for more information.

 

AFYAP (45 min.)

Arthritis Foundation YMCA Aquatic Program

This class involves specific movements related to the joints and surrounding muscles affected by arthritis.  These exercises help maintain normal joint movement, relieve stiffness and can help to restore flexibility and movement.  The three general categories of exercises utilized are:  range of motion, strengthening and conditioning.

 

AFYAP FOR DEEP WATER (45 min.)

Arthritis Foundation YMCA Aquatic Program

This class involves range-of-motion, muscle strengthening and endurance-building activities in deep water.  People with total joint replacements, shoulder problems, multiple joint involvement and moderate to severe joint involvement, osteoporosis or osteoarthritis should check with their doctor before participating in this program.  This program is designed to help relieve the pain and stiffness caused by arthritis while providing a fun, social opportunity.

 

AQUA EXERCISE (60 min.)

This program consists of a wide variety of exercises developed specifically for the water.  This is an effective way of using the surfaces of one’s body to increase water resistance, to increase cardiovascular flow and to develop the muscular system of the body.  Appropriate for swimmers and non-swimmers.

 

SWIM INC. (60 min.)

SWIM Inc. is a non-profit volunteer organization that offers a free program for adults with muscular impairment due to such causes as stroke, polio, MS, MD, arthritis and other causes.  If you find it difficult or impossible to exercise on land, try this self-directed water exercise program.  For more information, contact a Membership Services Representative at the Bridgewater Family YMCA.  

 

WATER WALKING (45 min.)

This class contains a variety of walking styles enhanced by arm movements, using the buoyancy and resistance of the water.  It is designed to improve posture, balance and breathing while gently toning the body.  This program is held in the shallow end of the pool.

 

DEEP WATER EXERCISE (60 min.)

This class is a comprehensive, no impact water exercise program using an aqua belt to assist buoyancy and balance in the deep end of the pool.  The deepwater allows more body surface to maintain pressure against the water. This allows for a weight exercise style, which tones the body, works the cardiovascular system and builds endurance.

 

WATER PILATES (60 min.)

Pilates, creatively adapted to the water, develops strength, flexibility and improves posture.  This program builds a stronger body core with fluidity and grace.  It appeals to a variety of ages and fitness levels.
