It provides for my needs.

I particularly enjoy the Aquafit sessions, and chair fit with the physiotherapist - wish she could come every week rather than just alternate weeks.

Sometimes, we find that you are stretched a little thin for class instructors, as there is a lot of reliance on volunteers. Perhaps more/better paid instructors are in order, especially considering how much those of us who use the pool are paying
