gymnastiques douces et aquatiques gentle exercises and aqua aerobics Explanation: It may even be possible to say "non-impact" instead of gentle, although that may be overtranslating - depends on the overall context. Aqua aerobics are often specifically recommended for people who need to avoid impact. |
