How do I sign up for a class?

Can I arrange a class for just my group / residence hall floor / sorority / fraternity / club?

Yes!  You can host a class for just your group to build teamwork, camaraderie, as a social outing,  for sports conditioning, for any reason!  Contact the Director for Group Exercise/Fitness Programs.  Fees apply and are not included in a membership.

When are schedules for the upcoming semester posted?

Even though it seems schedules are posted ‘at the last minute,’ it will have the greatest amount of accuracy. Also remember that most of our instructors are students who are balancing their schedules just like you!  In general, schedules are posted online as follows:

  • Fall Semester: The Friday before Labor Day. Note: A separate schedule will run from Thanksgiving through the last day of the semester.
  • Spring Semester: The Friday before the first day of classes.
  • Summer Semester: The Friday before the first day of classes.

ALL Semesters:  A separate and reduced schedule is offered during Exam Week.  Classes are not held during University holidays and have very limited availability between semesters.
