Water Fitness

Water exercise is an excellent, low impact workout that puts no strain on your joints.
Join our Active Older Adults (AOA) and use water's natural resistance to sculpt your muscles and improve your cardiovascular fitness. All swim levels are welcome. Check out the Stratford Richardson YMCA's all new facility, with zero-entry swimming pool!
