Change up your exercise routine with water aerobics classes at West Gwinnett Park Aquatic Center. These programs are a fun, high-energy way to get a low-impact workout. The programs use music, foam noodles and dumbbells to spice up workouts. Deep water classes use flotation belts to keep the chest and head above the water, so they are perfect for those with joint problems.
Drop-in classes are for people age 15 and up at all skill levels and require no pre-registration. The shallow water classes are better suited for beginners and deep water classes are geared for those more advanced in water aerobics. No swimming skills are necessary. Fees shown below are for Gwinnett County residents, the fee is double for non-Gwinnett residents.
West Gwinnett Park Aquatic Center located at 4488 Peachtree Industrial Blvd. in Norcross.
