DWR is biomechanically the closest cross-training method to actual running, providing a great aerobic training stimulus. DWR is perfect for those who wish to supplement their training, add in run-specific active recovery, continue training whilst injured* or to improve or maintain their aerobic fitness.
The DWR classes are designed to help improve aerobic fitness and running technique in a non-weight bearing environment. In all classes you work at your own pace, and within your capacity, so sessions are suitable for all ages (16+ for group sessions) and abilities.
Flotation belts are available pool-side for you to use, or you can bring your own. Remember to bring your water bottle too. A certain level of water confidence is required as our pool is 2.2m deep.
*If you are currently injured or have a medical condition, please discuss participating in a Deep Water Running session with your health care provider prior to attending to ensure this form of exercise is suitable for you.
