Hi everyone,
Yes unfortunately the YWCA Encore program in Victoria is suspended indefinitely due to lack of funding.
If you are interested in water based classes the
MOVE muscle, bone & joint health and YMCA run the ‘Waves’ warm water exercise program at several venues around metropolitan Melbourne. The ‘Waves’ program provides gentle warm water exercise classes offering
a general workout for the whole body for people living with muscle,
bone and joint conditions, as well as other chronic health conditions. Classes are conducted by qualified YMCA staff that have been trained by
MOVE
and the classes include a variety of exercises including aerobic,
strength, range of movement and stretching. All classes are held in YMCA
hydrotherapy pools where the water temperature is between 32 to 36°C. For more information visit
http://www.move.org.au/Waves-Program or contact 1800 263 265.
If you would like more information on other exercise options in Victoria or across Australia please feel free to contact here in the office 1800 500 258.
All the best,
Fiona
