Bodyworks

For 6 years Aquarobics has been part of the curriculum at Ellensburg High School. The school offers a class to their students entitled " Bodyworks." Aquarobics has been an essential part of this class.

    

A.Q. Kids

Being committed to all aspects of fitness, Aquarobics has designed an innovative youth program known as A.Q. Kids. The program consists of a six-minute muscular warm up, twenty plus minutes of aerobic work and ends with fifteen minutes of muscle conditioning. Correlating fitness and academics, the students begin each fitness class with a classroom discussion on "the heart," "blood circulation," "strong muscles---why do we need them?" and ends with the "muscle of the day." The students then put their knowledge to the physical test in the water. We found this to be an extremely safe form of exercise for growing children. Improvements included: coordination, ability to focus, weight reduction, improved muscular/skeletal strength and boost to self-confidence and body image.
