FloatFusion
Staff at the Wilmot Aquatic Centre are making waves trialing our new program, FloatFusion, and are ready for you to try it out, too!
This unique class will challenge your balance to the core! Participants will experience deep muscle engagement while performing controlled movements, holds and transitions on an anchored flotation mat.
Full sessions will be available in the spring, and participants can enroll now to try out standing or seated classes before making a commitment.

Adapted Aquatics
We're excited to offer our Adapted Aquatics program to address the needs of participants with disabilities, ages 3 and up. This specialized program provides individualized instruction in a supportive, inclusive environment.
Each 45-minute class is tailored to the participant’s abilities, with a low instructor-to-swimmer ratio (1:1 or 1:2) to ensure personalized guidance and appropriate modifications. Held in the Leisure Pool (Warm Pool), this program focuses on comfort, safety, and foundational skills through gentle, customized instruction.
