Classes?
Yes, our classes are designed to meet the needs of persons at different
levels of fitness. Modifications for lower or higher intensity are
provided during each class to ensure your best workout. Participants must
recognize that all classes of a physical nature involve some risk and by
participating in a class of this there is an assumption of risk by the
participant. Even though the classes have been carefully structured for
safety, it is your responsibility to go at your own pace and keep your personal
safety in mind.

river needs to be shared with lesson participants. Cost is daily
