Sports and Wellness
The Sports & Wellness Department promotes and supports student acquisition of lifetime health and wellness. This is accomplished by offering a broad range of programs and services that engage, inform, and inspire. To learn more about our programs and services visit the Sports & Wellness home page.
Fitness Centers
There are two fitness centers, one on the Chalon Campus and one on the Doheny Campus. The fitness centers are a benefit provided to all students, faculty, and staff by showing your MSMU ID card for access. Each fitness center is managed by full-time professional staff members with the assistance of part-time student workers. Drop by one of the fitness centers and ask for a tour to learn more about what is available.
Group Exercise
Group exercise sessions are free exercise sessions for students, faculty, and staff. These instructor-led sessions occur weekly on both the Chalon and Doheny campus. The sessions are for all skill levels in a variety of formats including dance, strength, and cardio.
Intramural Sports
Intramural sports are opportunities for all Mount students, regardless of skill level, to play sports. Basketball, volleyball, flag football, soccer, and softball are some of the sports that have been offered. The Mount also has an agreement with UCLA Intramural Sports for more opportunities to participate.
PED Classes
PED (physical education) classes are offered for MSMU students to learn new skills and participate in regular physical activity. These one credit hour classes are offered as electives and are intended to enhance and balance the academic course load of students. All courses, with the exception of PED 100, are Credit/No Credit and may be repeated for credit. Typically classes are physically active and meet for one hour, twice a week during the semester. Visit the Course Catalog for a list of all classes, and log in to WebAdvisor to register for classes.
Special Events
Special events offer a wide variety of opportunities for fun and physical fitness. While some special events are traditions that are offered annually, other events are one time occasions. The events that are offered are intended to meet the needs and interests of a diverse student population.
Sport Clubs
Sport clubs are opportunities for MSMU students to compete against other universities. Women’s Basketball, Women’s Soccer, and Women’s Volleyball Clubs have weekly practices and compete in regional leagues against universities such as UC-Riverside, UC-Irvine, Santa Monica College, and CSU-Northridge. The coach manages the team practices, competitions, and recruitment.
