A whole body gentle conditioning workout to improve overall strength, particularly the core muscles. This is a water based class that is suitable for all levels. Due to the in-water nature of the class, this class reduces bodyweight and allows participants to complete movements in water that they wouldn’t necessarily be able to do on land.

Many aged care services provide community buses to pick you up for regular trips to local shopping centres, libraries, senior citizen clubs and community health centres.
