"Being 45 years old, I’ve spent a lifetime exercising. I’ve played basketball, racquetball, football, I’ve done land high impact aerobics, low impact aerobics and other forms of water aerobics. I have found WaterGym to be the best all around form of exercise of all of them. The benefits for me are an absolute maximum cardiovascular workout, and a full body muscular toning workout, without any of the costs of pain that I use to get from any other form of exercise."
John Silvey, M.D., California

"For most of my adult life I’ve had lower back pain, and I’ve never been able to have an exercise that would completely take care of it. Ever since I’ve started WaterGym my lower back pains have gone. It all began by strengtheing all of my abdominal muscles and really working in a very controlled way, and by the time I am done with the workout the muscles in my body feel completely balanced."
Diane Cirincione, Ph.D., author, speaker, California

"I am a physician, and I've had a chronic back condition for a long time. Of all the things I’m doing right now, the WaterGym program is the most important. It’s given me a tremendous amount of flexibility, it’s given me strength, and I'm able to do everything I want from tennis to skiing, you name it. It’s really the number one thing on my list in terms of keeping my body in shape and keeping my spirit in shape to."
Gerald Jampolsky, M.D., author, speaker, California

"My body changed after working out with WaterGym. Instead of having the thighs that I had, they were much more trimmed down, as well as my hips. And my stomach and abdominals were much tighter and buttocks. My arms had such great form, I was getting compliments from everyone. It’s also beneficial in respect to my personal experience of running Bay to Breakers. I hadn’t been running, but part of WaterGym is running in the water and I found that I was able to do the Bay to Breakers without having ran for a couple of years. I was able to finish without walking at all, and I didn't feel sore because I had been working all of my muscles in the water. It’s the best way to start my day that I can think of!"
K. Lynch, California

“We all benefit from working with you. You are very professional, attentive, and responsible to the students. Everyone is saying marvelous things about you and WaterGym! Thanks a million!!!”
Anne Curtis Cuneo, Olympic Gold Medalist, California

"In the work I do as a consulting psychologist in organizations, and I work with executives who are in transition, I highly recommend WaterGym because it really helps people get through the stress and the strain that transitions sometimes provide for people, and helps gives them a fresh new attitute to start their day."
Dr. Peller Marion, author, California

"The WaterGym program is something that you feel like you can’t live without. You get addicted to it! At first I said “I’m not going to get up that early and go, because we get up really early for these classes, but once I started I just couldn't imagine not doing it. And everybody that I talk to has the same feeling about it."
G. Davis, author, California

“WaterGym provides a total workout that is tailored to a range of individual goals. I personally have gained remarkably in strength and flexibility since joining the class, and feel better than I have in years. I feel that this is the finest fitness workout offered at your club since I joined in 1970.”
M.A. Ellis, California

“I am 19 years old and want my friends to come to see what a great workout this is!”
A. Dahl, pro skier, California

“I have truly enjoyed every class for the last three years.”
M. Drake, California

“Since starting WaterGym, I feel better, my joints do not hurt, and I have lost over 2” per thigh.”
S. Hill, California

“I consider Susanne one of the finest instructors available. Her knowledge and forte in the fitness industry has greatly enhanced our program in many ways. She has incorporated many aspects of physiology and dance into a working methodology for the water program, and her ability to educate, motivate and instruct a safe and effective class is superb!”
S. A., Health Club Director, California

“I have taken water aerobic classes at many spas and hotels, as I travel frequently. This includes the Santa Barbara Biltmore, Inn at Spanish Bay in Pebble Beach, Quail Lodge, among others. Nowhere have I had a water class as well taught as the one we have here with WaterGym.”
J. Tayer, California

“WaterGym is without a doubt one of the best programs your club has going for it to be able to reach such a diverse group and have so many benefits from it.”
K. Loren, California

“WaterGym has been a saving grace for me. I began running when I was 28. I ran for ten years daily, alternating between 4 to 9 miles. I always enjoyed the workout and benefited from the stress reduction as well. I learned it was important for me to be very active physically. Almost two years ago, I injured my back lifting my son out of the car; herniating my L5-S1 disc. I recovered enough to not require surgery and I have developed proper body mechanics and back strengthening exercises as part of my daily routine. However, I truly missed an aerobic conditioning and toning workout. I discovered WaterGym and found an answer to my quest for a “safe” class for my back that would also help me strengthen my back. I remember very clearly that I actually reduced most of the numbness in my leg and sciatic pain in those first few classes. I was a convert! Though I originally felt this type of class was for people that were rehabilitating; this class is far from it. I get an incredible workout! The continual resistance I get in the water makes this workout always a challenge. Thank you!”
K. Keefe, California

“WaterGym is the best prescription for a total workout. As a pregnant woman, I can continue to strengthen, tone and get an aerobic workout without worrying about injury or harm to my unborn baby. The workout makes me feel energized and aids in a peaceful night’s rest. I plan to continue the class after the baby is born.”
D. Wineg, California

“I ran cross country competitively for eight years, and my body broke down continuously, I had chronic pain in my feet, legs, and knees. When I was five months pregnant I started your workout. It was really wonderful, even on the delivery table I was telling my doctor how great it was, and I swear it made my delivery easier. As a working mother I can only fit in one workout a week now, but I feel that it really makes a difference for me, and I’m getting in great shape.”
S. Pattee, California

“I’ve been taking WaterGym for about six months now and find it to be an excellent program. I am one of those uptight lawyers that needs a little relaxation and this is a great way to do it. It’s non-impact, I feel exhilarated and thoroughly exercised but I don’t have any joint problems or any aches or pains or anything like the kind I get with impact exercise including regular aerobics. I would recommend it for anyone, young or old. You can do it at your own pace, for as long as you want. I can’t say enough to recommend it.”
M. K, California

“WaterGym is wonderful! I just started taking it seven weeks ago, and since then I have lost 12 pounds. After spending 20 years long distance running and cycling, I can’t say enough good things about your class for two reasons. First, it works my whole body, something that running and cycling don’t. Second, I can really go for it and I am never sore the next day. Having responsibilities like kids makes the latter really important. Thanks for all of your dedication and enthusiasm. It really comes across and we really appreciate it.”
E. Coyne, California
