Aerobics - Directed by Beth Barry
 Monday,
Wednesday and Friday 10:00 a.m. and Monday and Wednesday 5:30 p.m. Classes are held year-
round in the Hot Springs heated Lap Pool. The Lap Pool averages 89 degrees.
The Pool is protected from the wind by high walls. Water Aerobics is
an excellent form of exercise for toning and the buoyancy of the water
helps protect joints such as knees, hips and backs from injury.
Lap Pool
- No Lifeguard
on duty.
- The Lap Pool
is available for lap swimming from open to one-half-hour before closing every
day. The only times the Lap Pool is not available for lap swimming

Classes are the Westside Club in the Lap Pool. 9:15 a.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and 10:00 a.m. on Saturdays. AquaLogix has created a revolution in water-based training to rival the land-based "aerobics" phenomenon of the 1980s. Never before has the water shown such promise in changing the way people feel, exercise, train, and rehabilitate - all while having fun. Witness the Fitness Revolution
The Revolution revolves around the patented design and functionality of the AquaGrip technology. No other piece of fitness equipment accomplishes so much in such an efficient, balanced and exciting way.
Recreation (Rec) Pool
 The Rec Pool
is available for recreational or lap swimming from open to one-half- hour
before closing every day. Children 15 years and younger may not swim
in the pool without a lifeguard on duty or adult supervision.

15 years old who are members of the Teen Fitness Program
do not require supervision.
- Children must
