Welcome to the Lifetime Physical Activity Program!
|
The primary aims of the Lifetime Physical Activity (LPA) Program at the University of Virginia are to teach basic skills, enhance knowledge about sport and other forms of physical activity, and to develop immediate and lifelong benefits and enjoyment of regular physical activity. To that end, we offer approximately 40 one-credit classes each semester for enrolled undergraduate and graduate students. Our classes are taught by qualified instructors, primarily graduate students. Our "home base" is Memorial Gym, where most classes take place and our main office is located (room 117). Classes focus on skill instruction, knowledge of rules and etiquette, and strategy for effective play. They range from mindfulness, cross training, and strength training to tennis, golf and rugby. You will find something for everyone on our schedule! |
