SWIMMING
INDOOR HEATED POOL HIDDEN AWAY 8 LEVELS UP ABOVE QUEEN STREET!
If you are looking for a great aerobic and total body-strengthening workout, then look no further. The no-impact nature of swimming will nurture your joints well into old age. Workout during your lunch-hour or use it to relax after work, swimming can have a soothing effect on achy joints and muscles. Keep cool while you burn calories, lose weight, and get in shape. The rhythmical nature of most swim strokes will do wonders for your stress relief.

Swimmers gain muscle strength throughout the entire body and utilize more muscle groups to move through the water. While the legs kick, the arms pull. As the back reaches and rotates, the stomach tightens to power the legs and stabilize the core, making swimming one of the best aerobic exercises to give you a total body workout. Swimming requires you to reach, stretch, twist, and pull your way through the water and in addition to the happy hormones, you also can feel a relaxation response similar to yoga. And if you’re feeling a bit shy, the door to the change rooms is directly adjacent to the end of the pool — just pop out the door and down the ladder! Feeling motivated to grab those goggles now? The water’s great — jump on in!
Due to the low volume of people using the pool we are able to use the minimum amount of chlorine required to achieve an excellent level of water quality. Compare our pool to other larger public pools and you’ll see what we mean!
