Aqua Zumba

The weather is getting warmer as we approach summer, so join us for Aqua Zumba at Marion Outdoor Pool!

Aqua zumba is an excellent way to get your dose of physical activity as there is less impact on your joints so you can really let loose. Water creates natural resistance which means every step is more challenging and helps tone your muscles!

*classes are held in the shallow end of the main pool, so you will be able to stand*

When: 7:30 - 8:15am every Thursday until 15 December

Where: Marion Outdoor Pool

Cost: $7 per session
