Escalante Fitness Center
Mission Statement:
Our mission at Western State College Escalante Fitness Center is to enhance the overall health and wellness of our students, faculty, staff and guests with a variety of fitness programs that inspire life changing experiences. Our goal is to provide our members with a fitness center that is safe, clean, and friendly. EFC’s programming is educational and dedicated to empowering our members in the area of health and fitness by encouraging regular exercise, healthy eating habits and sufficient rest and relaxation. EFC provides a learning environment and opportunities for the students to become group fitness instructors, personal trainers, fitness orientation leaders, climbing wall instructors, and fitness staff members.
The Fitness Facility:
When you come to the Escalante Fitness Center, it will feel like you’re at a big private gym. EFC will challenge you to be fit, feel younger, and healthier than you have ever felt in your life.
EFC programming will include a variety of group fitness classes and personal training. In the Fall 2011, Zumba, Group RX RIP (barbell strength training class), Group RX REVOLUTION (indoor biking), Hip Hop, Boot Camp, Cross Fit, Introduction to Climbing and Advanced Climbing will be on our schedule. Many of these classes are taught by WSC students.
New Fitness Orientation sessions are available to introduce anyone new to all our fitness equipment. These are FREE of charge.
Roped Wall Climbing and Bouldering are at EFC too. Bouldering is available anytime the fitness center is opened. Roped Wall Climbing is open only when a WSC Climbing Wall Attendant is on duty. Please call the front desk for this schedule (943-2105). EFC has the tallest climbing wall and the only boudering cave in the Gunnison valley.
There is no excuse not to be fit and healthy while you are at WSC! Come join the fun today!!!
