Howell Aquatic Center Fitness Training

Did you make your New Year's resolution to get fit? The Aquatic Center has a variety of fitness training to help you reach your goals. Control your workout pace during a public swim, or let our qualified instructors guide you through an exercise session. In the pool, as you exercise against the water's resistance, your choices include circuit, deep water, splash, morning aerobics or arthritis exercise classes. If you are more comfortable on dry land, group exercise choices include circuit, strength training, Drums Alive, senior classes, indoor cycling and yoga. For those of you wanting personal attention, hire one of our certified trainers to develop an individual workout program.
