Noodle Gym Workshop: (Sunday, January 12, 2025): The noodle has become the most recognizable piece of equipment at the pool – which can be used in most every program and every depth of water. The unskilled can be provided with support to walk with confidence in shallow water. The more skilled can challenge balance standing, sitting kneeling or riding in deep or shallow water. This session offers a selection of noodle exercises showing the many adaptations or progressions that can be used to accommodate a wide variety of participants within the same class. We will explore noodle cycling and noodle boot camp in the mix for more athletic programming.

DEEP H20 TRAINING (Sunday, January 19, 2025):: Learn to program safe and effective exercise in a non-impact environment. Deep water training allows cardiovascular movement and muscular conditioning in a variety of body positions not possible on land. Plan your program design to serve a variety of participants—swimmer or non-swimmer—using buoyant equipment. Learn key cardiovascular movements and/or specific muscle targeting to help map out a program.
Practical Tool Box (Sunday, January 19, 2025): We will work on lesson plans and templates for preparing safe, effective and enjoyable aquatic fitness programs. The agenda will include ideas and suggestions to develop balanced and purposeful programs in shallow water depths. We will review exercise to manage and develop the important components of a fitness program such as Warm ups, Cardiovascular training, Muscular Strengthening & Flexibility Sets as well as “mindful” Relaxation and Warm down movement to close each program. Since “one size does NOT fit all”, ideas for a way to modify or progress exercises will be examined. These ideas will encourage each class participant to work at their personal best for a successful workout.
