Abertay Gym Soc
Abertay Gym Society is a welcoming community for students who want to become more active, meet new people, and try different forms of physical activity in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Our goal is to make fitness feel accessible and enjoyable for you, whether you are completely new to the gym, getting back into exercise, or already active. We organise group gym sessions and free-to-attend meetups at local gyms where you can work out alongside other students without pressure or expectations.
We also run “try it out” events where you can explore activities like bouldering, jogging, skating, and more to help you find what you enjoy most. Feel free to suggest activities you would like to see, whether you already have some experience with them or wanna give them a shot! :) At every event we organise, you can expect at least one committee member to be there, so there is always someone you can chat to if you are new or unsure about coming along.
We will also post on Discord when committee members are attending activity-based events, so you can always join someone. You can also post any events you see online/heard about and see if you can organise a group to come along! ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ
This society is designed to be flexible and inclusive. There is no expectation of perfect attendance, and this is not like joining a competitive sports team. You can just show up whenever you feel like it. We also aim to create a space that is welcoming to students with disabilities, mental health challenges, or anyone who may feel intimidated by traditional gym environments.

Membership 🎟
Membership: Our current Standard Membership is just £5 for the semester! We wish to be as inclusive as possible so we can create great events, give out sports clothes, and provide free-to-attend sessions; as such, every penny counts. We will be running our events in the summer so be sure to tag along in Term 2 and join in on our sunny activities as we take a bigger focus on outdoor events, water-based sports and cooling down in casual meet-ups as well.
Term 1: Sep-Dec
Term 2: Jan-July
We also offer a ✨Community Champion✨ membership for those who want to support the society! This helps us expand our events and keep activities accessible for everyone. (More to come on that soon..!)
Be sure to join the Discord after buying a membership to stay up to date & enjoy the full benefits of the gym society. Welcome to the squad! :]
