    The Repat would be a great idea but with the political wrangling over that, who knows.

    I just thought, too... I think there are hydrotherapy pools at Paragon, Modbury and Thebarton.  When I was pregnant, my physio used to use a private pool at Hahndorf for exercise classes (I can't remember the address but it was on the Echunga Road and I think it's the same place that does "Ponies love Parties".  I guess it all comes down to convenience and cost, as you say.  Maybe we need to lobby the government for funding - breast cancer is always a good cause in the public mind as everyone knows someone who has been affected.  It's pathetic that some states provide funding and others don't.  I know that the academic research paper that is cited on the Encore site (I think that's where I saw it) actually recommends the class be run on a more long-term basis rather than a few weeks.
