Aquatics can be a great source of fun and exercise. That's why the Boonslick Heartland YMCA offers plenty of aquatic programs and activities to help you stay healthy and have fun in the process.

Water Aerobics

The BHYMCA offers two separate aerobics classes free of charge to members every Monday and Wednesday morning.
  • Water Aerobics: Our standard aerobic class, a great source of low impact exercise. 9:00-10:00 am.
  • Rusty Hinges: Geared towards individuals who need help staying in motion. Focuses more on improving and maintaining joint movement. 10:30-11:30 am.

Lap Swimming

Available weekday mornings, individuals who prefer a more rigorous, solo aquatic workout may use the pool for lap swimming or water walk/jog during this time. The pool is not strictly lap lane use at this time. 

*Individuals may request a lane be roped off for them during any time designated as Open Swim*

Call the Welcome Desk for times!
We currently do ask, that members and guests book time in the pool.  This allows us to limit lap swim to 5 people and it allows us to monitor how many people are in the pool for open swim when we only have one lifeguard on duty. 
When booking time in the pool, reservations are one hour. If the pool has openings available after your reservation is complete, it is optional to stay.  Please confirm with your lifeguard on duty. 
Please call 660-882-8500.  Thank you.
