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.
