Mailing Lists are Valuable Resources

The General Mailing List is new and will take time for list membership to grow. Do not be disappointed if there is no response to your posting. Try posting again at a later date. At that time there may be someone on the list who has a response. The General List will be populated with instructors, participants and people interested in learning more about Aquafitness. 

Haven't you wished there was a way to communicate with other Aquafit enthusiasts!  Well now there is.  Now you can ask questions such as:

  • Has anyone used a particular cd

  • Is anyone working with sports teams

  • Looking to carpool to the conference

  • Anyone created a handout on a particular topic

  • Has anyone worked with disabled participants

  • Want to set up a local study/practice group

  • You just want to bounce an idea of other Aquafit people.

  • Has anyone worked with a certain rehab situation

  • Anyone interested in getting together for a special class

  • Does anyone have choreography for a particular style of class

  • I'm moving to Toronto and will be looking for classes to teach

  • Anyone know where I can get liability insurance for my personal business

  • Would like to meet-up with other instructors while visiting England

  • I have a participant moving to Churchill, any suggestions where to attend a CALA lead Aquafit class
