All ages can exercise and train safely
You’ll find we keep the water at just the right temperature, so swimmers of all ages feel comfortable in the pool. There’s plenty of room for that aqua aerobics class or swimming training with our six lane pool. It’s 1.8m deep in the middle and we’ve made the pool shallow at both ends for ease of use.
Plus, you’ll know you’re in safe hands as one of our lifeguards is always watching what’s going on in the water. And for when you’ve finished that swim, you can relax in the Sauna and finish with a refreshing shower in the changing rooms.
Swimming is a fantastic form of exercise no matter what your age. It gives you a full body workout and is an incredibly important life skill to have. The water helps to support you whilst you exercise and offers resistance, giving a more effective workout with less risk of injury.
