Personal Fitness Instructors
Several personal fitness instructors are now available to help you improve on the return of your workouts and achieve peak performance with the benefit of one-on-one attention.

To ensure that you receive the best personal fitness instruction available, all Recreational Sports personal fitness instruction staff are evaluated for their competencies and are required to have earned a minimum of 12 hours of academic credit in exercise science or a health-related field. In addition, the staff must attend and pass an in-service PFI training course developed by the Division of Recreational Sports. All PFI staff must hold certifications in CPR and First Aid. Additional credentials the staff may hold include national certifications from American College of Sports Medicine, National Strength and Conditioning Association, American Council on Exercise, or Aerobic Fitness Association of America.
So, take advantage of this special program developed just for you, the REC cardholder*! Try it, experience the difference, and feel good about having made a wise choice!
