FITNESS CENTRE INFORMATION

WHAT'S NEW AT THE FITNESS CENTRE

The Fitness Centre is currently closed (to the greater campus & town community) due to the renovations taking place in the Keating & Saputo Centres. Members will be notified when the facility is approaching a re-opening date.

 

Beginning January 20th, the Fitness Centre will open exclusively for StFX students. At this time, all brand-new exercise equipment will be available to use.  TV’s and mirrors will not be installed until the end of April and wifi access will be limited due to the continued construction in Saputo. As well, there will be no change rooms likely until late March 2024. 

Free group fitness classes for students will continue to take place in the aerobic/dance studio located on the first floor of the Keating Centre.

Over the coming weeks, further communication will be shared regarding the official opening of the Fitness Centre for the greater campus & town community. This grand opening will take place once construction of the outstanding items listed above is complete. Please monitor your emails leading into the spring for this update.

As mentioned, the decision to open an exercise-focused facility this month was made with StFX students in mind, and we look forward to giving you the opportunity to experience the new space. An email will be sent out the week of January 15th with information on operational hours and how students can access the facility.

Thank you for your continued patience as we work to complete the renovation of the Saputo Centre

 

APRIL 30TH WILL BE OUR LAST DAY OF OPERATIONS | From this day on, renovations will continue to take place while the fitness centre is closed. More information will be available as we approach our opening day.
