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.
