Pool swim this fall?

admin — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 11:22:01 +0000

Do you want to pool swim this fall? We’re proposing three separate swims at emOcean in Lunenburg. They’ll proceed if we can get enough people. Each swim will be one hour long and run for 10 weeks (start mid October) . The options:

Open swim — basic lane swim, no set structure – Sunday nights from 6-7pm
Coached swim — lane swim with structure by the on-deck coach – Wednesday nights from 6-7pm
Learn to swim — meant for anyone just getting into swimming, there will be individual instruction/supervision – Wednesday nights from 7-8pm

We need to let emOcean know by Saturday Aug 27th how much pool time we expect to use this fall, so if you are interested in any of the above, please send an email to bridgewatertriclub@gmail.com. These swims are open to everyone, Cost will be determined by the number of people that participate. (typically $8/swim/week)

The Wednesday July 6th practice at Fancy Lake will include a fun, untimed aquathlon (swim / run / swim / run). Participants can choose from several distances appropriate for their fitness and training plan.

Friday Aqua-fit at emOcean with Tammy

Tammy Slauenwhite writes …

Starting MARCH 12 I will teach an aqua strengthening class at emOcean (296 Lincoln St., Lunenburg, 640-8484).

This class will focus on strengthening the core, lateral and medial muscles in the body to help create better balance and hip stabilization in the walker, runner and/or biker. And this class is open to everyone…not just for those who walk, run, bike. Note: this is NOT your typical aqua-aerobics type of class. It is sport specific!

The class will occur every Friday evening at 6pm and end at 6:45 (45 minutes in length, including warm up, cool down, and stretch).

The fee is $24 plus tax ($27.12) per month or $7 plus tax ($7.91). Fees are to be paid at the front desk at emOcean so please come early enough to pay your fees and be ready to start class on time.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to email me. I will be collecting emails and phone numbers from my participants so if you plan to attend, please forward this information to me ASAP.
