Aqua aerobics is a brilliant way to get moving in the water. And it's important to get the right swimwear, whether you’re trying your first class or you’ve been going for years. We understand that when you are taking part in your class, the last thing you want to be worrying out if whether your swimsuit is going to stay where it should. This is why we've pulled together our top picks so you can find the best swimsuit for aqua aerobics.
Best Swimsuit for Aqua Aerobics
The best swimsuit for aqua aerobics is one that feels super comfortable. It should give you great support and the courage to go and nail that class - week in, week out. You also want something that stands up to regular trips to a chlorinated pool. Here’s what we'd suggest you look for, along with a few options from our current range.
What to Look for in an Aqua Aerobics Swimsuit
Chlorine resistance. If you take part in an aqua class on a regular basis, your swimsuit will spend a lot of time in pool water. A chlorine-resistant swimsuit is a really smart choice if you want it to look bright and keep its shape for longer.
A fit that stays put. Aqua aerobics actually involves a lot more movement than you expect. Try a few stretches and arm raises when you put your swimsuit on. If you’re already pulling it back into place, you’ll probably be doing the same thing in class.
The right amount of coverage. Some women feel happiest in a classic swimsuit, while others prefer a legsuit with more coverage around the thighs. There’s no rule here: choose the one that lets you concentrate on enjoying your class.
Bust support that suits you. A shelf bra, bust lining or adjustable straps can make a difference to how your swimming costume feels during your aqua class. Take a look at all the features available before you buy a swimsuit for aqua classes.
Enough length in the body. If swimsuits tend to pull at your shoulders or ride up, a longer length style may be much more comfortable. It’s one of those things you really notice once you find a suit that fits properly.
Our Best Swimsuits for Aqua Aerobics
Molly Longer Length Legsuit – Ocean Blue and Jade
If you’d like a bit more coverage for your aqua class, take a look at our Molly Longer Length Legsuit. Its knee-length boyleg means you can get on with those leg lifts without thinking about the cut of your swimsuit.
Our Molly swimsuit is so popular because it has a shelf bra for bust support and light all-over control. It’s longer in the body than a standard swimsuit and made from chlorine-resistant fabric, so it’s a particularly good option if aqua aerobics is a regular part of your week.
Stella Longer Length Clipback Swimsuit – Blue Savannah
Our Stella Longer Length Clipback Swimsuit is a lovely choice if you prefer a one-piece swimsuit but want something that feels secure when you move. Our customers just adore the adjustable straps, light bust support from the bust lining and the clipback fastening.
The longer-length body gives you extra room if you find that standard costumes often feel a little short, while the light control fabric offers a smooth, comfortable fit. Our Stella swimsuits are also chlorine-resistant, making them a really great choice for regular aqua classes and pool swims.
Sleek Longer Length Swimsuit – Black
Prefer a sportier look? Our Sleek Longer Length Swimsuit in Black has a high neck and zip back, giving you more coverage across the chest while leaving your shoulders free to move. We think it’s a great option for an energetic class where you want to focus on the exercises.
Our Sleek swimsuits are brilliant because they are not only chlorine-resistant but also longer in the body. One thing to bear in mind is that it doesn’t have built-in bust support, so if that’s a priority for you, Our Molly or Iris swimsuits may be a better fit.
Iris Longer Length Swimsuit – Midnight and Steel
Our Iris Longer Length Swimsuit in Midnight and Steel is one to add to your wish list if you like to adjust the fit around your shoulders. Its wider adjustable straps work with a shelf bra to provide bust support, while the low leg cut offers a little more coverage.
Our Iris swimsuits have light control fabric, a longer body and chlorine-resistant material. This swimsuit is a gorgeous, but yet comfortable choice for an aqua aerobics class, and one you could just as happily wear for a few lengths afterwards.
Which One Should You Choose?
If extra leg coverage is top of your list, I’d start with our Molly swimsuit. For a classic swimsuit with adjustable straps, have a look at our Stella or Iris swimsuits. If you’d rather have a high neckline and a sporty shape, our Sleek swimsuit could be the one for you.
Whichever style catches your eye, check our handy size guide and think about how it feels when you move, not just when you’re standing still. A well-fitting swimsuit means one less thing to worry about when the music starts, and your aqua aerobics class gets going.
