Demo Week

At the start of each quarter, the Student Recreation Center holds a fitness class Demo Week. All classes are free during Demo Week! We don’t want you to buy a service you’ve never experienced, so come try out the classes we offer for free!

Remember, during this week all the classes will be very crowded, but please be patient as everyone is getting the opportunity to experience our programs. The second week of classes are always calmer.

By the second week of classes either you need to be registered for a Fitness Reserve Class, or you need to have purchased an Group X Pass and show it for admittance into all Group X Pass classes.
