Water aerobics are a benefit of your membership! They are open to every one - beginners to experienced and take place every day except Sunday in the Main Pool from 10-11 am. Led by certified instructor, Grace Penny, a member & owner in Paradise or experienced assistant, Don Patterson, a long time member, the classes are a mixture of toning, stretching and aerobics for at least 20 minutes of shallow water work and 20 minutes in the deep water, moving both fast and slow. The routines are a little different each day. Grace and Don also share health hints of the day, activity reminders of Paradise events and community events. Everybody signs in for each session and the instructors must be informed if there are any health restrictions ... i.e. just had surgery of ANY kind, heart problems, etc. Classes are cancelled when there is thunder or lightning and in our colder months Grace and Don do not schedule classes when the morning temperature is below 60 degrees. Classes may also be cancelled during special event saturdays. Paradise Lakes Resort's water aerobics program is the longest running, with the most sessions a week, of all of this area's clothing optional/nude resorts. You can find Grace or Don conducting classes, weather permitting, 313 days a year!

Which leads me to this: as a Full Member of Paradise Lakes, when you pay for your membership you get a FREE gym membership at the same time. In addition to the Water Aerobics classes, we have either "Chasersize" or yoga instruction Monday through Thursday and Saturday and our weight room/fitness center is open 6 am to 10 pm seven days a week. Associate members, you're not left out...pay your normal daily membership fees and take a class or use the equipment all day with no extra fees!
