Water Aerobics at Yarra Junction Pool Thursday 11.15 -12 noon. Teacher Jo
Come along and enjoy our small group led by an excellent, qualified teacher. No blaring music or gym junkie leaping about the pool deck. This class is aimed at “Goldie’s” but is a good workout.
The pool was refurbished over winter and all is like new.  We are usually about the only people in the pool at this time. You can stay as long as you like for only $8.50.
