How Do You Teach Water Aqua Aerobics?
Aqua aerobics is a great way for anyone to get into shape. The water actually supports the body, reducing the impact on joints by about 50 percent. The water also supplies 6 times the resistance of working out on land. After the workout, exercisers will not be as sore because the water wears less on the muscles. A positive factor is students do not have to be swimmers. The program has been created for swimmers as well as non-swimmers. When teaching a water aerobics class, there are a few steps to follow to make this an enjoyable class for the students. Discuss the importance of wearing swimwear that will not slide down or that will not expose what should be kept private. The swimsuits should be snug for women, and. for men, board shorts are fine as long as they’re not loose or baggy. Have students put on a fitness jog belt so that they can feel confident enough to head for deeper water for a full-body warm-up session. Make sure that each belt is worn around the lower part of the abdome
