Therapy Pool Programs

The therapy pool offers a variety of programs to suit your needs. There are drop-in programs available, providing flexible access to the pool for various activities. Swimming lessons are offered for all skill levels, ranging from beginners to advanced swimmers. Additionally, aqua fitness programs are available, designed to improve strength, endurance, and flexibility through low-impact, water-based exercises.

Please visit the Active Portal for program information.

Please do not enter the change room any earlier than 15 minutes before your timeslot. Wearing your bathing suit to the WCC is one way to reduce your time in the change room. After you have exited the pool deck, please do not stay in the change room for longer than 15 minutes; this helps us control the number of people in the room at one time.

Lockers are available to store your things during your timeslot. You can use your own lock; however, all items and the lock must always be removed after your session.
