Group Exercise Classes
The Fall 2011 Group Exercise (GX) Schedule begins on
Monday, August 29th. To view the schedules please click here.
A variety of Group
Exercise classes are offered at both the Malkin Athletic Center
and Hemenway Gymnasium. Group Exercise offerings include step,
pilates, muscle conditioning, aqua aerobics, kickboxing, yoga, and
many more. Classes are offered during the fall, spring and summer
semesters. Reduced schedules are offered in January and June.
Classes are not progressive, so beginners can drop in at any
time during the semester. You do not need to sign up for specific
classes, but can try out several classes or attend various classes
as your schedule and mood changes.
How do I
participate in Harvard's Group Exercise
Classes?
Staff &
Faculty: In order to attend Group Exercise classes, you must
first have a recreational membership. 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 or in person in the
Ticket Office in the Murr Center when the membership is
purchased. Your ID will be activated with the add on
information as soon as the purchase is complete. Please note that
purchasing class access does not give you facility access.
Membership must be purchased separate online or at the ticket
office 617-495-2211.
Attention

in your facility membership free of charge. You must activate your
class access before October 2, 2011. Students who fail to activate
