Why Family Fitness Matters

What if you could invest in families today and inspire healthier generations tomorrow? Family fitness classes create more than strong bodies — they build children’s self-esteem, encourage communication, foster positive behaviors, and strengthen family bonds.

Movement With Meaning

At the heart of Aqua Body Strong® is a mission to empower families and communities through movement. By bringing families together in fun, active ways, Aqua Body Strong® programs—like aqua board and aqua trampoline classes— enable aquatic centers to make a lasting impact that extends far beyond physical health.

Research shows that when families exercise together, the benefits extend far beyond fitness:

• Stronger family relationships – Exercising as a family increases cohesion, communication, and bonding. Parents in family-based physical activity programs report enjoying improved family functioning and quality time together.

• Positive mental health benefits – Shared exercise boosts happiness and vitality more than exercising individually , and parents report improved mood when working out with their children compared to alone.

• Role modeling healthy habits – Active parents raise active children. Studies confirm that when parents exercise with their kids, children are more likely to join sports, stay active, and carry those habits into adulthood 

• Better health outcomes for children – Family-based interventions significantly improve children’s physical activity levels and overall health, especially when parents are directly involved.

Why Aqua Body Strong® Is the Perfect Fit

Traditional land-based fitness programs can feel intimidating or repetitive, especially for families with varied skill levels. Aqua Body Strong® aqua board and trampoline programs offer a fun, safe, and accessible environment for families to exercise together: 

• Engaging for all ages – Kids love the challenge of balancing on aqua boards or the bouncing on trampolines, while adults enjoy the full-body workout.

• Low-impact but high-intensity – Water resistance reduces strain on joints, making it safe for multiple generations to participate side by side.

• Built-in teamwork and fun – Families cheer each other on, laugh together, and share in small victories as they master moves on the boards or rebound on trampolines.

• A unique experience – Few centers offer aquatic fitness beyond lap swimming. Adding boards and trampolines sets your facility apart as a leader in innovation.

A Win-Win for Aquatic Centers

Adding Aqua Body Strong® family fitness programs not only benefits participants but also helps your aquatic center attract new member demographics (parents looking for family activities, children seeking fun movement, grandparents wanting active bonding time); increase program retention by providing meaningful experiences families want to repeat; and strengthen your community reputation as a hub for innovation, wellness, and family connection.

Final Word

The research is compelling: families who work out together build healthier bodies, stronger relationships, and better habits. Aqua Body Strong® programs bring those benefits to life in a fun, water-based format that families will love. By incorporating aqua boards and/or aqua trampolines into your family fitness offerings, your aquatic center can create programs that make a lasting impact on health and community.
