Warm(up) for winter

Welcome to all the new Maties Gymnasium members!

Welcome to all the new Maties Gymnasium members! We are committed to motivating and inspiring you on your fitness journey as we are nearing the chilly winter months. At Maties Gymnasium, you will find friendly staff, exciting group exercise classes, state-of-the-art equipment, and ongoing support and guidance.

Whether you are just starting your fitness journey or looking to take your fitness levels to the next level, our dedicated team is here to help you achieve your goals. We are constantly innovating our products and services to make your gym experience more fun, safer, and enjoyable. So, what are you waiting for? Let us get you moving so you can make the most of your gym membership!

Did you know? You can complete your body assessment before you get started or at any time during your fitness or health journey. You will get a good indication of your body composition rather than just what the scale says! You can ask at reception for more information. Or you can email fitness@sun.ac.za.

Welcome to our new fitness instructors

We welcome three new fitness instructors, from the left: Mikhail Davis, Keelan Witbooi, and Wesley Carr-Cass. You will either find them on the floor, teaching classes or doing body-assessments. They are here to support and guide you around the gym.

Lunchtime express classes on the menu

Need more time in the day to get to the gym? Why not come and try our 30-minute express classes? This will give you enough time to shower quickly and return to work or studies.

Which one will you give a try?

Bring the heat Lite
Uppercut Lite
30 min Burn
Tone and Target (Upper and Lower) Lite

Matie to cycle in Belgium

We would like to wish Toni Mould all the best. She will be travelling to Belgium with the help of one of our instructors, Michaela Nellemann to compete in the prestigious Ronde in Vlaaderen Classic and UCI World Cup 2023. Good luck Toni!

We’ve added more LesMills programmes

We are extremely excited to announce that we will be adding more Les Mills programs to our timetable! We are hard at work training new instructors to give you the best experience! Keep a look out on our social media pages for teasers of what is coming next!

Visit the Blousaal for a change

If you have not been to the Blousaal yet, visit this lovely studio. Besides all the exciting classes you do not want to miss, we have added stunning new equipment for functional training in this space.

We have sandbags, new dumbbells and kettlebells, resistance bands, weight plates, and landmines!

So, if you want to do some functional training but need more confidence to use the other weight areas, the Blousaal is the place for you! Shake up your next workout and try out our new equipment.
