Class Description
Power Water Aerobics is one of the longest running and most successful aquatic programs running at the LHS Pool. Instructor Ann Schwarz has been teaching the class for over 20 years.
What separates Power Water Aerobics with Ann from other classes is the great atmosphere and tone Ann sets. Everyone, from a beginner who has never taken a class before, to a veteran of many years, can have a great experience in Ann's class. The water provides a resistance equal to the force you exert, which levels the playing field. The pool provides a place to work out that is much easier on those who are injured or unable to work out on land.
The class focuses on three areas: aerobic training and conditioning, upper body strength, and core strength. The aerobic training is an area that Ann builds intensity throughout each class meeting, and throughout the session. Upper body strength is an area that needs improving, and the water provides a great forum for that. The last focus area, core strength, is tackled with a variety of abdominal exercises to improve overall strength and flexibility.
New attendees are encouraged to arrive a few minutes early to the first class to meet Ann and get a brief overview.
