Paradise Valley Community College (PVCC) boasts a remarkable resource not only for our Pumas, but the community at large. Located at the southwest edge of campus, the Fitness Center is PVCC’s best kept secret and available to the surrounding community with affordable pricing and qualified trainers.
“Our primary goal is to support our community, students and staff in reaching their health and fitness goals in our fitness center or in one of the many group exercise classes that we offer such as yoga, pilates, martial arts and more,” said PVCC Fitness Center Director Tatum Bailey.
Why the PVCC Fitness Center Stands Out
Expert Staff and Instructors
One of the defining features of the PVCC Fitness Center is its knowledgeable and highly qualified staff. Each instructor holds a four-year degree in exercise science, with many possessing master's degrees as well. They are certified by top professional organizations such as NASM, ACSM, ASCS, or ACE, ensuring you receive top-tier guidance. These experts are always available during operating hours to support your fitness journey.
Affordable Access
Unlike many commercial gyms, the PVCC Fitness Center offers an incredibly affordable membership. For just $25 per semester, students, employees, and their dependents can take full advantage of the facilities. We have several affordable community membership options including a senior membership for those 62 and over for just $78 per semester, with potential eligibility for insurance-based memberships, making health and wellness accessible to all.
Personalized Training
Membership at the PVCC Fitness Center comes with an exceptional perk: three free personal training sessions. These sessions provide personalized attention to help you achieve your fitness goals, answer any questions, and familiarize you with the gym’s equipment and layout. This tailored approach ensures you make the most of your workout time.
State-of-the-Art Equipment
The fitness center is equipped with a wide array of modern equipment, including free weights, Freemotion machines, Cybex machines, and various cardio equipment. Additionally, there is a specialized area for functional fitness, catering to all types of workout preferences and routines.
Get Fit. Earn Credits
PVCC not only offers a place to work out but also integrates fitness with education. You can enroll in several classes at the fitness center that earn you credit towards a degree. This blend of physical activity and academic achievement enriches the overall student experience.
