Planning your week of workouts? 💪
Why not come try an Aquafit class at Crestwood Pool!?
💦
The classes are high energy, lots of fun, and there's always great music and a wonderful community of friends!
💦
The classes are low impact, easy on the body and joints, yet highly effective. Crestwood Pool has both deep and shallow options for you!
If you have hip, knee, ankle issues- you may want to try working out suspended in the deep end. {belts are provided, please make sure to get clearance from your doc if you have injuries/issues. Safety first, team!☺️}
The shallow starts at 1M and goes to deep. You want the water level hitting you around the mid shoulder. Try to keep your arms under the water level for max benefits!
💦
Class times are
M-F 9am-9:50am
M-F 10:10am-11am
M-Th 7:20pm-8:10pm {Oct 1st-11th will be 8:10pm-9pm and then they will return to 7:20pm start}

Miss Marla's Travelling Dance Parties!
Lights, music, ACTION!

I started doing kids birthday parties in my fitness studio, Heartbreaker Dance & Fitness, in 2010! We hosted a lot of different theme parties, but the zumba style dance parties were always the most requested!
I expanded into doing offsite dance parties in schools and pre-schools as I am completely portable with my music machine- The PartyRockerMax! I teach mostly in Medicine Hat, but I can travel to rural cities and towns! Currently- I do kids dance parties in Ralston on Tuesday nights!

All the songs I dance to are completely child and family friendly. The songs are all handpicked by me and the lyrics are all double checked to make sure they are suitable for kids!
*I will forward you the playlist of songs by request before our dance party.
The dances are easy to learn and so much fun!
**I can choreograph a dance just for your child to their favorite song! {must be a family friendly song and I would need two weeks notice.}

Book me for your school, pre-school, or offsite birthday parties!
Prices vary due to travel and time. Simply contact me direct to discuss your party and I will quote you a price!
Hope to see you out dancing!

Mobile Fitness & Nutrition Services

Do you have a workplace that has some space and you would like to offer some fitness to your staff? Perhaps you have a commercial business or Event Center and would like to bring in some fun dance or fitness?
Are you a teacher or with a school/preschool? My Miss Marla Travelling Dance Parties are a hit with kids!
I am totally portable and I teach a variety of dance and fitness classes in Medicine Hat and surrounding area! I have been teaching fitness for over 40 years and I have many different certifications and class formats that I teach!

Currently, I teach the aqua fit classes along with my team of amazing instructors at the Crestwood Recreation Center. I also taught the last two summers of aqua fit at the Redcliff Aquatic Center.
Do you have a pool? Would you like to book a super fun pool party with a famous Marla's Move & Groove class? It's a high energy class with super fun music and moves that will get you movin' and groovin'!

I teach at the Redcliff Rec-Tangle on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6:00-6:50pm. This class is an adults all level fitness class.

I also teach at the MHPS in the gym on Mondays and Wednesdays at noon. We do circuit style strength focus workouts.

I just started teaching my Miss Marla dance class followed by a fitness Power Hour in the Rec Center in Ralston. I will travel to rural communities!

I also go to schools and preschools for fitness or dance! Are you having a year end party for your classroom? How about bring in a dance party to send your kids out with a really cool experience they will remember forever?!

I just finished a hands on cooking gig at Mother Theresa school where we did a healthy lunch theme!
{We did sushi rolls, summer rolls, vermicelli noodle bowls, cookie dough protein bites, home made lunchables with home made 'Cheez It' crackers, sub-in-a-tub with homemade salad dressing and healthy banana splits!}

I can do up personal meal plans and personal home based or gym based workout plans for you as well!

If it's health, wellness, fitness, dance or nutrition, I can accommodate.
Feel free to message me and we can arrange to have an awesome health & wellness event at your facility!

Message me and let's chat!
Yours in health and wellness,

Aquafit Instruction Services

I, Marla Howard, along with my team of amazing instructors teach the aquafit classes at the Crestwood Recreation Center!
There are currently 14 classes/week and we have both morning and evening time slots to choose from. Classes fill up quick, so please pre-register for your class by calling into the pool 403-529-8320, or register with the link.

Aquafit classes are so beneficial for everyone! It is a great low impact, high energy workout that is easy on the joints.

The Crestwood Pool is varying in depth, so you can choose where you like to be in the water. For shallow water workouts, we recommend the water hitting you just below the shoulder. The pool depth starts at 1 meter and goes deeper from there. You will get the most out of your workout if you can have your arms under the water to add that extra push and pull to your movements. If you have knee, hip, ankle issues or other mobility issues and don't want to be in the shallow water, deep water is available for you as well! Belts are provided.

FAQs
Q: Do I have to be able to swim to join an aquafit class?
A: No, you don't. The pool is a variable depth and you can stand where you are comfortable. We keep our head above the water level. You can wear a belt in with shallow or deep if you prefer.

Q: What do I need to bring?
A: All equipment is provided for you! Just wear a suit that you are comfortable in and please shower before entering in the pool. Bring a towel. There are lockers for your personal items.

Q: How long are the classes?
A: Classes are 50 minutes in length. We do a warm up routine that gently eases your body into the more energetic movements. We use aqua weights, and noodles in most classes as well. We have an ab segment and a stretch at the end!

Q: I just had surgery. When can I start classes?
A: Please make sure you have been cleared from your doctor before starting any exercise program.

If you would like any other information or have questions, please feel to reach out to me!
