Description
Walking is the #1 functional activity that keeps people independent, and walking in the water may support and protect the less able and those new to exercise. Moving through the water with a variety of walking patterns and progressions will help everyone achieve an excellent total body workout that focuses on core, balance, strength, mobility, posture and gait training, as well as avoiding momentum and torque on the joints. You will learn over 100 different ways to walk as well as system of varying your programs so that everyone may work at a self-paced level of intensity. Candidates will review ways to provide team work, group and partner work for beginner through advanced clients in a sociable and all inclusive system. This program was designed for shallow water pool depths. Ideas may be incorporated into a lazy river, however, this program was developed for regular shallow water pools.
