Exercise Logging System (ELOG)
Elog is a computer system which organizes, tracks, computes, and analyzes an individual’s cardiovascular activities. Members record each day’s cardiovascular activities on log sheets located in either the fitness area, café or pool. This information is entered in the system, which then calculates total mileage, calories, and aerobic points.

Personal Training
Personal training will provide you with a more individualized program that is designed only after your fitness level has been assessed through the Advocate Heart Risk Assessment conducted at Riviera.   This enables our certified staff to design a more specific program with more specific goals.  Our personal trainer will motivate and educate you to achieve maximal results and benefits.

Swim and Tennis Lessons
Riviera offers year-round personalized instruction for all ages in swimming and tennis through private, semi-private, and group lessons.  Lessons are given by highly qualified instructors.

Group swim lessons range from water babies to advanced stroke development and refinement.  One instructor for every four children maximizes their learning experience.
