Water fitness – like aqua aerobics but personal!  At Clarence YMCA, Hobart

 There are many reasons why you might prefer to workout at the pool.  The benefits include:

  • low or no impact workout in water
  • lower body temperature (cooling effect of the water)
  • reduced inflammation and swelling
  • three dimensional movement
  • or you simply love water – it’s fun!

We have exceptional water fitness experiences that are fun and effective.  We have a dedicated space at Clarence YMCA, east of Hobart.

 Why exercise in water?

Exercise in water is not only gentle on the joints and supportive of your body – in deep water we can eliminate all impact.

It’s for clients cleared by their medical team who have:

  • Broken bones, arthritis, and swelling
  • Pre and post surgery candidates – hip and knee replacement candidates are regular participants
  • Circulation issues –  it’s the pressure of the water that works the magic and can help circulation throughout the body

Our water fitness personal training sessions goes well beyond swimming. We can teach you deep water running techniques, offer multi-directional workouts to get a great whole body workout, we can add resistance to the workout with a gymstick, and a core workout as well.

“Jo’s attitude towards fitness is as individual as her clients. She’s always got time to understand where I’m at and what’s going on with my body. Her interest, knowledge and skill in women’s fitness particularly is unparalleled in Hobart. I have a number of challenging, long standing injury issues. Jo has taken the time to understand these and she’s always checking in with me about those before we start a session. One-on-one PT sessions are focused and I always walk away feeling energized and positive about my body. On group PT, which are 4 people max, she still manages to ensure everyone’s individual needs are met. I highly recommend her!”

Marg Marshall (client since 2010)

“Jo is passionate and realistic about helping people be the best physical version of themselves, she has definitely made my life better.

I have rheumatoid arthritis and do two small group water PT classes each week and I know that this helps me move around more easily. Jo checking in with me at the start of each session and her ability to vary the exercises according to how I am feeling means that I always have a worthwhile workout. Some days are more challenging than others but
attending Jo’s classes has returned to me freedom of movement to enjoy life. I work 2 long days a week and am largely on my feet at work. I’m able to care for my infant granddaughter and can engage more fully in the activities of a chorus I belong to. Also, finally after many years of feeling unable to, I’m rediscovering the great joys of gardening ????.

I absolutely 100% recommend Jo as a trainer!”
