Staff Fitness Opportunity

January 23, 2017 by

While there are free group fitness classes at UMW, sometimes faculty and staff are looking for a private fitness opportunity to work out together. With Private Fitness Classes, you can work out consistently in a group of your peers while receiving personal attention from a seasoned instructor and genuine support from the group of people who are enrolled.

This program style runs for five straight weeks and meets twice each week, for a total of 10 workouts together. The cost is $75 per person and in order for a class to run, we must have 3 people register and pay.

The first session of Private Fitness Classes will be Jan. 30 – March 3. Registration is now open!

During this session, you can choose from 2 classes: Yoga on Mondays and Wednesdays from noon to 12:50 p.m. or Body Sculpt on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 8:45 a.m.

If you have questions, please contact Assistant Director of Fitness and Wellness Brittanie Haas at bhaas@umw.edu.

Fitness Opportunities at UMW

September 20, 2016 by

If you’re looking for a fitness program that is exclusive to a small group, meets regularly (twice a week for five weeks), creates a sense of accountability and motivation, and has an instructor who will cater the workout to your needs, then you may be interested in the Small Group Training program offered at UMW.

Campus Recreation is currently accepting registrations for the upcoming session of Small Group Yoga and Small Group Fitness Fusion that will run from Oct. 24 through Dec. 2 (excluding the week of Thanksgiving). These are not your typical group exercise classes, as this training program requires commitment via registration, the registered members are expected to show up to both weekly workouts, and it is limited to a small number of participants. Additionally, the instructor focuses on the needs and capabilities of your group, so no need to worry about your current fitness level. Read more about each of the small group programs below.

Small Group Fitness Fusion
Tuesdays & Thursdays (Oct. 24 – Dec. 2), 12pm-1pm, Goolrick Hall Studio 5/The Fitness Center
Cost:  $130 for UMW Faculty, Staff, Students & Alumni / $150 for Secondary Cardholders and Alumni +1’s
Description: Experience multiple fitness styles in this hybrid class that will be designed based on your group’s goals and capabilities. Fitness Fusion includes first day and final day fitness assessments to measure your progress, a conversation with a personal trainer about goals and abilities, as well as educational and physical workouts utilizing body weight exercises, TRX, HIIT-style training, barbell work, and other resistance training.
