Things to Do

To kick off Wesley’s Splash Challenge, Healthy West Orange and the Roper Family YMCA are teaming up to offer a fun way to get some exercise and enjoy some family fun — all at the same time.

The Family Aqua Fitness Class will be held from 9:30 a.m. to 1230 p.m. Friday, June 20, at the Roper Family YMCA, 100 Windermere Road, Winter Garden.

Stay cool and get your workout in at the same time at the Roper YMCA pool.

Aqua Fitness, like water aerobics, is a low-impact workout offering a gentle way to improve cardiovascular fitness, strength and flexibility. It's a great option for all fitness levels, especially those with joint pain or recovering from injuries.

This class is designed for ages 10 and older, and participants should be able to stand in a 4-foot, 6-inch pool.

After our one-hour class, participants are welcome to stay for two hours of open swim. Folks can swim laps, tread water, or simply float around and relax.

All participants will be registered for Westly’s Splash Challenge and receive a goodie bag!

Registration is required, and spots are limited. Sign up here.
