Fitness Centre Reservations No Longer Required

By agmiu on August 21, 2021

For visits beginning on August 23, advanced reservations are no longer required the ARC & BirdCoop Fitness Centres. If you already have an active membership, you can visit at a time convenient to you and just scan in at the entry gates for each fitness centre.

Additionally, though there are no longer time limits for visits to the fitness centre, we ask that you be considerate of other members. Each fitness centre will have a limited capacity and you may be asked to wait. Please note that peak periods of use at the fitness centres are after 4:30pm.

  • ARC Fitness Centre Capacity: 75 persons
  • BirdCoop Fitness Centre Capacity: 60 persons

These changes are a pilot as we prepare for the fall term.

Additional Information For Your Visit

Fall & Back-to-School Memberships

Only monthly, summer, or back-to-school memberships are valid at the fitness centres through until August 31. Fall student memberships are only valid for access beginning September 1.

Group fitness classes

Please note that advanced reservations are still required for all group fitness classes.

Day use lockers & bags

Locks for day use lockers are available at the front desk of the SRC and ARC. Please use the day lockers as bags and backpacks are no longer permitted to be brought into the fitness centres. If you are borrowing a lock, please ensure you have two pieces of ID as you will need one as a deposit for the lock and your UBC Card is needed in order to scan in at the fitness centres.

Change rooms open

All change rooms are re-opened at the SRC and ARC. Change stalls, benches, and showers are available.

Face Masks & Cleaning

Wearing face masks while visiting and training at the fitness centres remains strongly encouraged. Additionally, please ensure you continue to clean equipment prior to and after each use.
