Photo Submitted

Each semester, University Recreation offers a variety of Group Fitness classes to help participants meet their health and fitness goals.  By providing a variety, enjoyment and support in their fitness experience, group fitness classes can take the “work” out of your workout. University Recreation Group Fitness classes are instructor-led classes set to music that focus on various fitness components such as cardiovascular endurance and total body strength. 

University of Arkansas students, faculty, and staff with a UREC membership are eligible to take Group Fitness classes at no additional cost. All other UREC membership types must purchase a Semester Group Fitness Pass for $40.00 (includes Group Fitness for both facilities). All classes are available on a drop-in basis. Registration is required once per year, and can be done at the class location.

There will be several new group fitness formats to look for during the spring 2014 semester.

Total Body Conditioning: Don’t have time for a full hour workout?  This express workout includes intervals of sports conditioning drills and strength training to create one exhilarating 30 minute workout.
