Owatonna's commitment to health and community well-being has taken a refreshing plunge with the introduction of water aerobics classes at the West Hills Tennis and Fitness Center. Sponsored by the Parks and Recreation Department, these classes present a unique opportunity for residents to blend fitness and fun, further strengthening community ties.

Nestled in West Hills, the 90-degree small pool is an oasis for those battling arthritis or pursuing post-surgery recovery. Its warm waters offer support and resistance, creating an ideal environment for gentle, yet effective workouts. Every splash and stroke in these classes echoes the town's ethos of fostering social connections while prioritizing health.

Classes throughout the week cater to diverse schedules, ensuring that all community members have a chance to join. With limited class sizes, attendees enjoy a personalized experience in a communal setting. The program enables participants to sign up for month-long stints, offering the flexibility to adjust class times weekly.

Key benefits of this program include enhancements in flexibility, muscle strength, and endurance, coupled with reductions in anxiety and overall stress. It's not just about the physical improvements; the program also supports mental wellness and social engagement.
