6:00 - 7:00 p.m.
This comprehensive workout will be in two parts. The first half hour you will work out in the lazy river. Instructors use water weights, noodles, and more to provide an aerobically challenging, but low impact workout. The second half hour you will move to the deep end of the pool and continue working on cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, strength, muscle tone, and increase fat burning. Flotation devices (hand buoys, belts, and noodles) provide stability and flotation, however, you should feel comfortable in the deep water.

By registering and participating in any of our youth sports leagues, you acknowledge that you and the participant are abiding by this policy. With that said, we understand that Erie Parks & Recreation sports leagues do not fit everyone’s needs. We have compiled the following list of local organizations if you are looking for a more competitive offering for your child. This list is not all-inclusive and is intended to provide a few options to begin your research.

RECREATIONAL SPORTS AGE CLASSIFICATION
