New Aqua Aerobics Classes

South Staffordshire Council’s leisure centres offer several aqua aerobics classes which provide a whole range of benefits.

The top benefits of aqua aerobics:

  • Water supports the body, putting less stress on your joints and muscles
  • Working out in water helps build strength. Fighting against the push of the water activates your muscles
  • Water pressure helps put less strain on the heart by moving blood around the body
  • The impact of gravity is less in the water allowing a greater range of motion
  • Working out in water helps prevent overheating, helping you exercise for longer
  • And… it’s fun! It is not often you can say that about a workout.
