BENEFITS OF AQUA AEROBICS FOR SENIORS
- Exercising in the aquatic environment has health benefits for all ages but as we age, the advantages over land-based workouts become more pronounced.
- Water supports the body, reducing impact and lessening stress on muscles and joints.
- Muscle strength declines with age but by using the resistance of water, this can be slowed or reversed.
- Working against water resistance promotes better balance, flexibility and co-ordination, which in turn reduces the risk of falls.
- Blood Pressure can be lowered due to enhanced circulation, contributing to overall heart health.
- Choreography and routines used in this type of exercise help brain function.
- Exercises can be modified to accommodate individual health issues and the intensity of the workout is decided by each participant.
- Group activities contribute to building a network of friends, making the social aspect equally as important as the physical benefits.
Every Aquatots instructor completes 40 to 50 hours of internal training, a national qualification, and a 21-module certification before they teach their first lesson.
Aquatots won Gold ACT Employer of Choice at the 2025 ASSA awards. Here's what that recognition actually means for the instructor teaching your child each week.
