AquaFit is suitable for participants of all ages. No swimming skills required.

During the year, Dalplex offers National Lifeguard certification courses to our comminity.

National Lifeguard - Pool Re-certification

The National Lifeguard - Pool certification is a legal certificate for lifeguarding recognized throughout Canada. To remain certified, National Lifeguards must successfully complete a recertification exam every two years. During the recertification, guards have an opportunity to practice and be tested on lifeguarding skills and situations related to a pool environment by a NLS instructor/examiner. Recertifications can take up to 4 hours depending on how many participants enroll. Please bring a towel, bathing suit and whistle.
Prerequisites: Must have previously completed the full NLS Pool certification course. If NLS Pool certification is expired, you must complete recertification within two years of expiry.
