Respected by orthopedic surgeons…

“In the three decades I’ve been an orthopedic surgeon, there’s been only one pool program that I’ve recommended for my patients to try in order to prevent or postpone surgery, and that is Lynda Huey’s pool program.  If patients eventually do need surgery, I have them prehab with her to get strong before surgery, then use her effective post-operative rehab program.
The physical  benefits don’t come just from the water and its buoyancy and its mysterious effects on balance and proprioception, but they also depend on the quality of the water program itself.
If I were going to learn an aquatic rehab program, I would want to learn Lynda’s!
Lynda’s success comes from her passion for the advanced techniques she creates and the sixth sense she has developed over three decades of learning from each and every patient.”

Here’s what people have to say about learning aquatic rehab from Lynda


Tonie Campbell
“Lynda is the forerunner of water aerobics. Always on the cutting edge, her expertise, passion and forward thinking enabled me to incorporate aquatic exercise into my training routine which I can say directly assisted me to not only becoming a three time USA Olympian and Olympic medalist but maintaining my track and field Top-Ten World ranking for eleven consecutive years in the 1980’s and 90’s. In later years, I hung up my spikes and took my place amongst the coaching world and have continued to use the techniques that Lynda Huey taught me as an athlete thus sharing this knowledge and beneficial training aide with the next generation of athletic super-stars and those dedicated to fitness for life. Thank you Lynda, you’re a rock star!”
Tonie Campbell, American Olympic bronze medalist and Aquatic Coach, Los Angeles, CA


Tanya Luck
“Some years ago Lynda Huey blew us out of the water ( literally ) with her deep water training technique series. Since this memorable experience we have referred our AquaWellBeing candidates to her literature for top reference on how to safely and effectively manage rehabilitation needs with their Clients. Her great learning resources are promoted on all our Instructor training courses. There is very little information on water specific rehabilitation being taught within the Universities for the Aquatic exercise Professionals and her books are well researched, clearly concise and beautifully illustrated.
We are hoping she will visit Australia once more yet meanwhile are so thrilled that there are now finally online courses available to motivate our candidates and in return improve options being provided by Aquatic Exercise Professionals in Australia.”
Tanja Luck, Aquatic Exercise Instructor, Perth, Australia

I am a little sad the course is finished as I so enjoyed it, but I’m also so happy as I take all this knowledge forward to help many. Thank you for all your advice that you have shared through the course. Thanks for answering my many questions with clear details. My students gave me a standing ovation after I taught them some of your exercises. Your online course is helping us all!”

Helena Vanelli
“I am a trained dance teacher and I have been teaching fitness and wellness sessions for the past 18 years. My passion for this field has encouraged my learning to deepen my knowledge required, to achieve results.
Therefore, it is through this experience that I have gained training and expertise. A continuous desire to want to learn more led me to Lynda Huey’s Aquatic rehabilitation course.
My experience of water –aquatic rehabilitation, confirmed the fact that our bodies are a lot more equipped to heal and reverse chronic ailments, than we are led to believe.
Lynda’s course put everything into perspective for me. Her course reflects her inherent teaching skills/gift. Her experience working with elite athletes is invaluable and her vibrant and patient characteristics made this experience highly enjoyable for me.
The passion that she has is transmitted through her consistent commitment and care, making this feel like a personal tutorial. Therefore, my journey with Lynda felt very personal and supportive. Nothing like one would expect from an online course.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who has a passion for aquatic exercises/rehabilitation, irrelevant of experience or knowledge.
I thank you Lynda for this invaluable learning experience.”
Helena Vanelli

Vanessa Guzzardi
“Learning from a pioneer in water training and therapy has been by far one of the most fulfilling experiences I had this year. Her passion and knowledge are wonderful motivating tools for other instructors. This on line program is complete, clear, concise, and resourceful. The videos are the perfect complement to it. I would definitely recommend other instructors and therapists to take it. It is worth it!
Thank you Lynda for every single comment. I felt as if I really had met you in person. In fact, I can’t wait to do so.”
Vanessa Guzzardi

Vanessa Guzzardi
“It was a great program and I did tell people about the course and what I went through to make my self a better aqua instructor. So much of the program you can use in your every day aqua classes. Thank you Lynda for all your guidance input and for sharing with me your knowledge. You are an asset to this field that is growing by leaps and bounds. It for sure is becoming more and more demanding as our population is growing older. What you have to offer I cant imagine doing it any other way. You started this back in the 80s and 3 decades later look what you have done and where you have taken aqua to. Another dimension.”
Lyn Lebowitz

Vanessa Guzzardi
“I didn’t want to finish the course!!!!! I have enjoyed your course greatly and I will continue to do so. In fact, I will go over it all over again. I hope I can get to interact with you sometime in California as I have always wanted to get there. I look forward on working with professional athletes as so far I have been exposed to highly injured or handicapped people which I also love. I admire your trajectory and I am very lucky that I can be part of it. The course is phenomenal and I highly recommend it. Your enthusiasm is key and it has been great. Thank you so much for being a great teacher, example and human being.”
Hortensia Aguirre

Mercedes Saghini
“I learned a lot from this course. Lots of great techniques to help people with all kind of injuries. .Most of my students I teach are mature ladies that doctors send them to the pool to heal. I feel like I know a lot now…and that makes me feel good being able to hel others. That is a great feeling because I love to teach.
It was a wonderful course with a wonderful Mentor,Lynda. ….Enjoy it all!!”

Here’s what people have to say about learning aquatic rehab from Lynda


Lindsay Fujinaka
“The aquatic program can be utilized for all levels ranging from orthopedic, neurological, and for athletes at any level. Following my completion of the aquatic rehab program, I am confident in my ability to treat all types of patients with this alternative program geared at reducing pain while building strength and function. The program is well balanced with clear instructions and concise messaging.”
Lindsay Graham, DPT

Jessica Bufete
“When I started doing pool therapy, I had no prior aquatic rehab experience. Lynda Huey taught me her aquatic rehab program including exercises for all ability levels, injuries, and stages of rehab. She is particularly good at teaching effective cuing for correcting common mistakes and achieving proper form, offering modifications for exercises that might be painful or too difficult, and safe progressions. As a physical therapist I have used Lynda Huey’s program effectively in treating hundreds of patients with a variety of diagnoses. I would encourage anyone to give aquatic rehabilitation a try and to trust in the success of Lynda’s program.”

Here’s what people have to say about learning aquatic rehab from Lynda


“I have done trainings in the pool with Lynda, where she stresses not only the importance of proper form, but the theory behind each of the programs she has created. In addition, I have attended several in-services that Lynda has held, where she both re-trains already learned exercises and introduces new additions to previously established programs. I have taken Lynda’s teachings and applied them to the rehab I do with my own clients. Lynda’s program offers a unique approach to rehabilitation, one which allows people the opportunity to strengthen muscles, regain range of motion and return to their prior level of function.”
Jen Michel, Aquatic Rehab Specialist, Los Angeles, CA

Still not sure if Lynda Huey’s Aquatic Rehab Online Course is right for you?

Here’s an email we just received from an aquatic exercise instructor who was trained by Lynda Huey:


I wanted to learn from Lynda Huey because of her excellent reputation as a water exercise instructor. My goal was to become a better instructor and learn from someone who knew how to work with a group but also individualize students’ programs depending on injuries or conditions some of them might have. She told me everyone who comes into the pool can always do something. We have to work around the aches or pains they may have. I needed to learn who could do what and what they shouldn’t do, and she always had specific, clear advice for me. 
Lynda always has good examples of different ways to instruct something to make it understood by everyone. She taught me to look at the students and see if they’re getting it. She taught me to always ask my students how they feel, coach them on good form, and once their form is good, speed up to a higher intensity.  I could always review my notes from the training, refer to her book The Complete Waterpower Workout Book and her DVD if I wanted to understand a specific exercise better. I still re-read the book to remind myself how Lynda talks about water training in general or about certain exercises, and then I’ll say that same thing to my class.
Lynda also taught me some very big and invaluable things about running a class – and they all WORK. I became a more confident instructor thanks to Lynda Huey.  Now I know I am teaching a high-quality class. And the classes just keep growing in size!
