Group Fitness Classes
The Department of Athletics and Recreation sponsors group fitness classes every semester through the Intramural Sports Program. We offer a variety of aerobic and conditioning classes.
The classes are free for all full-time matriculated students. R-Club members are also eligible participants as a part of the R Club Membership Fee.
All classes are held in the Leibner Room, formally known as the multi-activity center (MAC), which is located within the Goergen Athletic Center. Classes will be offered through the academic year except during University Holidays.
Please wear appropriate and comfortable attire.

Class Descriptions
- Iyengar yoga class will focus on muscular-skeletal alignment in each of the postures. We will practice arm balances, standing and supine postures as well as inversions. We will devote about 20 minutes of each class to pranayama (breath control) and meditation. This class is formatted for the beginner as well as intermediate student.
- Zumba is a latin-inspired dance-fitness class that incorporates international music and dance movements for a great workout! Come join the party and burn up to 1000 calories in just one hour!
- Yoga - This
class is a fusion of Vinyasa yoga and Bikram yoga. Vinyasa yoga focuses on
synchronizing breath and movement, while Bikram yoga is a series of 26 postures
systematically structured to open all areas of the body and release tension.
The goal of this practice is to focus on flow, strength, balance, and
intention; but more importantly to leave the practice with an open mind and an
open heart. This practice is for yogis of all levels (you decide how far you
go). The class will occasionally have live music! If you are interested in
playing music for the class visit www.facebook.com/YogaLiveMusic
- Kickboxing
class is a non-equipment based class. This class is a combination of cardio,
core and strength endurance with focus on full-body toning. We will be doing
mostly basic punches and kicks in kickboxing as well as pilates and yoga. This
class is designed for every fitness level.
