Group Exercise

Recreational Sports Fitness and Wellness activities are available to provide a quality state-of-the-art fitness and wellness environment that educates and motivates participants to engage in safe and effective fitness programs. Fitness and wellness promotes the concept of wellness through a harmonious relationship between mind, body and spirit. It also helps the individual to develop self-responsibility that has a positive impact on risk factors, lifestyles and quality of life. The Fitness and Wellness programs also help to develop professional skills for student staff, including exercise prescription, leadership skills, equipment operation and upkeep, strong interpersonal and communication skills, and the ability to deliver a higher level of quality service to customers to increase personal fitness levels and wellness.

Group Ex provides aerobic activities in a group setting. Several classes are offered throughout each semester, ranging from beginning to advanced intensity levels. Classes vary from yoga to water exercise. All classes are held in the Payne Center and instructed by certified aerobic instructors.
