How do I participate in Harvard's Group Exercise Classes?

Staff & Faculty: In order to attend Group Ex classes, you must first have membership to the appropriate facility. Please note that the membership structure has changed this year.  In addition to your annual or seasonal membership, you will be given the option of four add ons:  towel service, class access, squash membership and tennis membership. In the past, class access has been processed in person at the MAC and Hemenway, whereas this year it must be processed in addition to your membership online. Your ID will be activated with the add on information as soon as the purchase is complete.

How do I participate in classes after I obtain access? When you check in at the front desk ask for a class pass. Front desk attendants will begin handing out passes 30 minutes prior to the start of each class. You may only take a pass for yourself, and you ma

y not attend class without a pass. Class passes may not leave the building. The instructor will collect the passes. If the front desk runs out of passes, the class is full for that particular session, and will reset each time.

What if I just want to try one group exercise class? You can try a group exercise class by paying a $10.00 drop in fee. Choose the class you would like to try and complete the drop in form at the front desk. There is no limit on the number of times you can purchase the drop in fee.

Please note: Class attendance numbers will be monitored and classes with consistently low attendance may be eliminated.
