The Office of Campus Recreation offers a number of fitness opportunities to help you get in shape, have fun with friends and challenge yourself.
In recent years, the activities available to the NSU community have increased significantly. From recreational fitness to intramural sports to NSU’s very own Biggest Loser – there is something for everyone. Campus Recreation provides an environment that is fun for all, regardless of your skill or fitness level.
Campus Recreation offers a number of group exercise classes such as spinning, body sculpt, circuit blast, cardio step, cardio core, hip hop, killer abs, pilates, yoga and zumba. Classes are held in the Don Taft University center and class schedules are available at the front desk.
Intramural sports are also popular on campus. Campus Recreation offers both recreational and competitive leagues. The sports include basketball, volleyball, soccer, flag football, softball, dodgeball, golf, badminton and racquetball. Intramural leagues run four-six weeks throughout the school year. Games are played Monday-Thursday, 7-11:30 p.m. Intramurals is the perfect way for you to meet friends and compete in a social environment.
One of the most successful programs offered by Campus Recreation is the Biggest Loser. In its fourth year, this program offers participants a chance to improve their overall health. In order to participate you must submit an application to Campus Recreation. Once the application is accepted, potential contestants must undergo a selection interview and must complete a physical exam and blood work before starting the program. Previous participants have lost weight, lowered their cholesterol and blood pressure and increased their flexibility and strength.
For more information on intramurals or fitness programs, please visit the RecPlex‘s Web site or visit the Office of Campus Recreation located on the first floor of the Don Taft University Center.
