GSUmove offers free, fun and non-competitive sport that requires no commitment other than purchasing a free ticket for each activity. This is a brand-new recreational sport initiative to encompass all the free physical activity available either on campus or virtually. Whether you want to get fit, relieve stress or meet new people this is a great informal way of playing more recreational sport and being involved in more physical activity on campus. 

What's on? 

Virtual HIIT Class

High-Intensity Interval Training is a form of training that focuses on building LEAN muscle and to BURN maximum calories! With the mixture of resistance work and cardio, H. I. I. T will ensure that you feel the benefits of the session not just during but for up to 48hrs after.

Virtual Yoga  

By going virtual we can ensure the yoga is available to you. Yoga is a practice for the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual; such a necessity in challenging times. It is a place of calm, grounding, and normalcy in turbulence. Providing a chance to play, move and connect. 

Virtual Zumba  

Zumba combines high energy and motivating music with unique moves and combinations that allow the Zumba participants to dance away their worries. It is based on the principle that a workout should be 'fun and easy to do'. Zumba is not only great for the body, but it is also great for the mind. It is a 'feel happy' workout. 

Give it a Go Sessions

GSUmove will deliver one-off ‘Give It A Go’ sessions to allow you to get fit, relieve stress or meet new people and more importantly have fun. These sessions will be an excellent way to try some new and exciting activities and help you step out of your comfort zone and enjoy physical activity with your peers on campus. 

Tennis 

Tennis does not always have to be about competitive match play and can provide many other ways to relax, make new friends and have a laugh! Coaching, Social tennis and Recreational Matchplay are all good ways of making new friends whilst also improving your game.
