Head to Kiwa Pools in Gisborne for Gentle Aqua Mobility! A $7 gentle fitness class for ages 65+. Explore accessible sessions today!

Gentle Aqua Mobility is a water-based fitness class held in chest-deep, warmer water at Kiwa Pools in Awapuni, Gisborne. This class suits the older community, especially those with limited mobility, who use walking aids, or anyone feeling unsure about physical activities. It focuses on building strength gradually, improving balance, enhancing cardiovascular fitness, and practicing functional movements for daily activities.
The buoyancy of the water reduces joint pressure and makes movements easier on your body. Water gives natural resistance to help build strength without needing heavy weights. It also boosts confidence for trying new movements and improves circulation to ease pain. No swimming ability is needed since you stand comfortably in the water, and instructors make sure everyone participates safely.
