Everyone can come try aquatic, fitness and recreation programming or enjoy the pool, gym, fitness centre and studios in the heart of downtown Edmonton.

Now that the City of Edmonton has made the decision to repeal its masking bylaw throughout our municipality, and with many public-sector entities rescinding their own mask mandates, wearing masks on our campus will no longer be mandatory.

The university strongly recommends that you continue to wear masks in high-traffic areas or in other areas where you are in close proximity to others. We also ask that you join us in respecting the choices of others regarding masking.

Our fitness programming serves people of all abilities and interests. Try daily Value-Added spin, strength aerobic and older adult classes. Sign-up for our specialty courses—from Olympic Weightlifting and kickboxing to yoga and Barre. Train with our Exercise Specialists to reach your lifestyle and fitness goals.

From tots (with their parents, of course) to master swimmers and all levels in between—register for swim lessons and learn skills that will last a lifetime. Get fit in the pool with deep and shallow water classes or train to become a lifeguard or instructor with our aquatic certifications.

Take a virtual tour of MacEwan University Sport and Wellness, located in Building 8 and home to our 12,000 square foot fitness centre, 18,000 square foot gymnasium and six-lane, 25-metre pool.

We acknowledge that the land on which we gather in Treaty Six Territory is the traditional gathering place for many indigenous people. We honour and respect the history, languages, ceremonies and culture of the First Nations, Métis and Inuit who call this territory home.

MacEwan University Sport and Wellness: Opinions

4.7/5 (24 Opinions)
David Lord 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This is a great facility and the staff are all very knowledgeable. Have been using the gym and pool for years and have only ever had positive experiences.

Darrell Hough 2 years ago

Positive experience: Went to the pool for a private booking with a kids hockey team. Setup was really nice. Shallow pool connects into the lane pool, lots of water activities for the kids, and a nice big hot tub. Pool temp could have been a little higher but you adjust pretty quickly.

John Seong 2 years ago

Positive experience: Decent gyms. The floor should be waxed more often though.

Steven Dytiuk 2 years ago

Positive experience: Well-maintained pool and steam room! The only thing keeping it from 5-stars is that there is no temperature control on the showers and the water is too hot! Lockers are large - easy to fit your bag in. Very clean facility and friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: This is an awesome gym!

Michael Horvath 2 years ago

Positive experience: Beautiful first-class facility. The parking situation is an effigy to institutional indolence. It's an "Out-Source" App-based system, where they promise you a voucher code; if they "know what it is today, It changes all the time" The app on the phone didn't accept the voucher code, so the App kiosk provided was my last resort, but visa debt doesn't work and neither did the voucher code, so somehow I managed to pay $12 for 1-hour parking. I probably messed it up, but it wasn't easy to figure out (you have to figure out the zone yourself). I Love the "Out-Sourcing" idea, I bet if publicly tendered out, the operation would be much customer-focused and be a fraction of the overall cost.

Fantastic experience: Went to the fitness centre. They've got a good system! Pay for drop in online, it's easy to book your slot and fairly easy to cancel if needed. 1.5 hour slots. $7.50 for drop in I believe. Everyone carries around disinfectant spray and wipes down the equipment before and after use. Not tons of equipment, but with fewer people I never had to wait for anything. You can bring a lock and use day lockers now too

Fantastic experience: I did my COPAT some days ago and was impressed with the high level of professionalism and care shown by the team there. They were so helpful and understanding. I want to thank Devin and Megan for being great as well as James for encouraging me through the course. You guys rock!!! Keep up the great work you're doing at MacEwan!!!

Amy Michaels 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. My kids love this place. The environment is friendly. Their rates are very competitive and they have many timing options.

Yeg Gym Review 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: MacEwan University’s fitness centre has kind of an odd shape to it, kind of resembling a zig zag. Aside from that, this facility offers very nice equipment and the culture here is also very positive with the student population. It can be quite busy during traditional semester months (September-April) in the afternoons and evenings, but aside from that offers a really great environment to train in with equipment for any training style.

Alexander Philipp 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Well despite being a washed up athlete, this place still welcomes all with open arms. A plethora of drop-in fitness classes rotating seasonally, inter-mural leagues, gym rental, this place has it all. Not to mention the friendly and knowledgeable staff are prepared to create a program for any level for any goal. Plus, the pool is a nice touch if you want to go for a quick dip, or a hot tub to rest those trunks you call legs. Get after it here and you will be glad you did!

Hana Kwang 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: A good gym! Staff was incredibly friendly and chill, overall a peaceful experience!

Ahmed Abo-Said 6 years ago

Positive experience: No access to parking pass if you are a student. Students have no choice but to be a member whether they want to use it or not. That being said, it is one of the nicest facilities I have utilized in a long time. It is not usually crowded and you can get a machine right away during most of the day. Students really should try to get here at least once a semester just to say they did it.

Tam 6 years ago

Positive experience: Great facilities

Kellen Westman 7 years ago

Positive experience: A great pool that is usually very quiet. If you like lane swimming without being bothered by others in your lane, swim here! Just make sure you check the schedule first, it's sometimes fully booked by private groups.
