Group Fitness Studios

 
  • No food or beverages are allowed in the studios, except water in closed plastic containers.
  • Participants are highly encouraged to arrive to class on time. Late arriving participants may be denied entry to class, at the instructor’s discretion, due to the importance of a sufficient warm-up period.
  • It is highly recommended that participants stay for the entire class to ensure the proper cool-down phase of class.
  • All participants in group fitness classes must be 16 years of age or older.
  • Soft-soled, closed-toe athletic shoes are required for all cardiovascular and resistance training classes. Hard-soled, closed-toe athletic shoes or cycling shoes are recommended for all SPINNING classes. Shoe removal may be appropriate in yoga, pilates and flexibility training classes.
  • Personal belongings are not allowed in the studios. Coin return lockers are located on the second and third floors near the studios and daily lockers are available from Equipment Issue. The Ray Meyer Fitness and Recreation staff is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
  • All accidents, injuries or equipment irregularities must be reported to the Building Manager immediately.
  • Towels are recommended for all classes and may be picked up from Equipment Issue or the second floor attendant area. Water bottles are highly encouraged for SPINNING classes.
  • All patrons must comply with staff requests. Instructors have authority over all room conduct and use of equipment. Failure to comply may result in suspension of facility privileges.
  • All equipment must remain in the studios and must be returned to its proper location after use. Equipment from other areas may not be brought into the studios. All equipment should be used for the manner for which it is designed.
  • To enter a class, participants must wait outside of the studio until the instructor allows everyone inside. Please form lines going toward the end of the hallway; participants may not save spaces in line for friends or save equipment.
  • Class entry is on a drop-in basis and will be open on a first-come, first-served basis. Class size is limited to twenty participants in SPINNING classes, and thirty participants or instructor’s discretion in all other classes.
  • All Group Fitness classes are free and only require proper access to the facility. Instructional Programs require registration and may include a fee. Please see Membership Services for more information on these offerings, including Yoga and Pilates.
  • Campus Recreation reserves the right to cancel any class on the basis of low attendance or registration.
  • Studios A & D are open for informal drop-in use when scheduled classes or club practices are not in session.
