Our martial arts programs are designed to promote progression and development for both beginners and experienced participants. The programs focus on muscular strength, endurance, flexibility, concentration, and cardio and are available for all skills. Depending on the program, participants will learn takedowns, throws, strikes, and joint locks.

If you are experiencing any issues registering or have any questions about the programs, please get in touch with Fitness & Program coordinator Faralee Wilson at faralee.wilson@umanitoba.ca.

Anyone can register at any time (unless there is a registration deadline). The Retail price applies to non-members of the Active Living Centre. The Member price (20% off the Retail price) applies to Active Living Centre members and UM students. The discount will be applied automatically at checkout.

UM students must activate their student access first and register using their @myumanitoba.ca email address after they have received confirmation of activation. If you register for an Adult Program before the term begins or before your access is activated, you will not yet have an active membership in our system and you will not receive the discount. You can register for the program at the Retail price and once your access is activated, visit the CSR desk to have your registration adjusted to receive the discount OR wait until you are notified that your access is activated for the term, then register for the program and the discount will be applied automatically at checkout.

Members, including UM students, are able to try Adult Programs for free during our Free Trial Week, offered in both the Fall and Winter terms.
