CONTINUING EDUCATION
The FitRec at Boston University offers low-cost continuing education credits for AFAA Certified Fitness Professionals. Classes are taught by our fitness staff who are AFAA and ACSM certified and have Master’s Degrees in Exercise Science and Human Movement. All AFAA certifications require you to obtain 15 CEUs every 2 years to renew your certification and sometimes it is hard to fit them in; traveling to find workshops and the associated costs can add up quickly.
Each fall semester, Boston University offers a 16 week training course to prepare you for a national Group Exercise Certification. In addition, a Personal Training Certification is offered in both the spring and the fall semesters. For more information about these classes please contact
Michael Lagomarsine, Assistant Manager - Fitness at 617-353-0869 or mlago@bu.edu.
PERSONAL TRAINING
Personal Training includes a wide variety of wellness services and packages to fit your individual needs. Personal Training provides 1-on-1 instruction under the supervision of one of our Certified Personal Trainers.
Clean sneakers exclusively for studio use are required for all fitness classes. No street shoes allowed!
