Did you know that UCLA faculty and staff can access a free 7‑day membership trial through UCLA Recreation, giving employees an opportunity to explore campus fitness and wellness resources before committing to a plan?

UCLA Recreation offers a range of programs, services and facilities that support physical activity and well‑being. Membership provides several payment options, including payroll deduction and AutoPay and allows members to purchase group fitness classes, personal training sessions, swim lessons and instructional programs. Faculty and staff also have access to no‑cost or low‑cost offerings such as FitZones, BHIP OnRamp, special events and promotions.

Work out at the John Wooden Center, train outdoors at Drake Stadium, and visit the pools at Sunset Canyon Recreation Center on campus.  Enjoy exclusive access to Kinross Recreation Center down in Westwood. Looking to get away from the pace of campus life? Visit the Marina Aquatic Center in Marina del Rey.

Employees can use these spaces before work, during breaks and after hours, and many programs allow for family participation.
