Summer is right around the corner, sign up for a water aerobics class at your home

Irma Juneau started working towards bringing peace into peoples lives through her workouts. She began back in 1996 back in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma as a volunteer to teach water aerobics. She felt the need to help those who had joint problems and arthritis through workouts either in the shallow or deep end of any swimming pool. She began as a volunteer because the facility didn’t have enough money to pay her but once she brought up the membership by 50% the organization decided to hire her. She has since taken several training sessions and is certified through NDEITA as a Group Fitness Instructor. Irma is also certified through LA Fitness International Aqua Program. For anyone who has joint problems or arthritis .  This is an excellent workout for those just beginning or adding to their complete workout.  Those who want a good cardiovascular workout the shallow water aerobics is great for staying in good shape along with not hurting any joints. Water aerobics creates a wonderful resistance yet gentle enough all on joints.  Irma also teaches Silver Sneakers which is a program which is aimed for senior citizens that is a great workout. 

Irma is also a pilates instructor. Pilates is an athletic workout which improves the core strength and balances the muscles around the joints, improving the way your body functions, looks and feels. It focuses specifically on breathing; pelvic placement; rib cage placement and scapular movement along with head and cervical spine placement.
