Campus Rec
Take your fitness to the next level — challenge yourself, learn a new skill, or simply increase your fitness level. The Instructional Program classes at Campus Rec are a great way to learn a new skill or brush up on an old one. Throughout the session you will progress from basic knowledge to more advanced skills with the same group of participants.
There are two sessions, 3-week and 8-week, offered to complement your busy lifestyle. Sign up for one class or many, or use the 3-week session as a teaser or introduction prior to the 8-week. Campus Rec will also have a free class week from Feb. 2-Feb. 9, so you can get a taste of what these classes are all about.
