Group Exercise

SportUni organizes group exercise classes on all campuses (City Centre, Hervanta and Kauppi). There are dozens of different classes with different levels of difficulty. Familiarize yourself with the class descriptions and give different classes a try, and you will surely find the one that suits you. You can participate in group exercise classes as often you like as long as you always remember to register for the classes in advance from the Selection calendar.

The classes are divided into three different color categories according to the type of the class: green=aerobic classes, blue=fitness classes, pink=balance classes. Additionally, some classes are marked with a star* meaning that they are suitable for beginners.

All equipment needed for the classes can be found in group exercise rooms, but you can bring your own yoga/fitness mat if you wish. Please only wear indoor shoes in the group exercise rooms.

Here you can see the group exercise timetable.

Registration

You must register for all group exercise classes (except participating online to LS classes). You can register daily through the Selection calendar. The registration for the classes opens the day before the given class at 7 am. You can register until the beginning of the class. Your registration appears on your SportUni “My page”, where you can also cancel it. Remember to cancel your registration if you can’t make it. The cancellation must be made at least 2 hours before the start of the class. A 14-day booking block will be applied for unused bookings, if the booking is not cancelled 2 hours before. The booking block can be removed before 14 days only by paying a 5€ reactivation fee at the Sport Centre’s customer service point. If the class is fully booked, you can register for the waitlist. Each class has 20 substitute places. You will receive a notification in your e-mail no later than 2 hours before the start of the class, if a place has become available for you. Registration for the waitlist must also be canceled no later than 2 hours before the start of the class if you are unable to attend. You may register for as many classes daily and weekly as you wish. The instructor checks the registrations at the beginning of each class if needed.
