Open Gym

Autumn Quarter Open Gyms will run until Friday, December 13th

Open gyms will be the same time each week until 9th week, with an exception to our showcase dates. Anyone can come practice anything during these times, regardless of the board member's specialty; however, if you would like instruction and/or spotting for a specific discipline, you may want to come at a specific day and time based on which board member is present. Please note that when classes are in session, use of some equipment may be restricted.

Open gyms are located in Logan 701.
