Our sport, fitness and wellbeing programmes

At City University we have excellent facilities to help you keep active and get fit.

We run an extensive programme of fitness and wellbeing classes with a variety of exercise, holistic classes and recreational activities to choose from. Our fitness and wellbeing classes at City University are a great opportunity to get involved in sporting and fitness activities that are fun and build your overall health and fitness levels.

We also have a modern gym with state-of-the-art cardiovascular equipment. If you’re more into team sports, then you’ll find our facilities include a full-sized basketball court, complete with scoreboard, and a dance studio.

We offer a range of generous membership deals – City University students and staff currently benefit from free access to unlimited classes and the use of both gyms, and there are competitive annual packages available for alumni and members of the public who’d like to use our facilities.

Benefits of our programmes

  • Exercise decreases stress hormones and increases endorphins – making you happy.
  • It’s a good workout for the brain as it increases blood and oxygen flow to the brain and the chemicals that help cognition.
  • Exercise helps you more confident and reduces stress – very useful around exam time.
  • It can help you to maintain a healthy weight in combination with a balanced diet.
