Reserved Drop-in Fitness Classes

Sign up in advance and join in! These popular group fitness, indoor cycling and basic yoga classes use the reserved drop-in (RDI) system, which offers everyone the chance to secure a spot by signing up seven calendar days in advance of the activity date, beginning at 7:30am.

Reserved drop-ins are included in your Access Pass or with a paid single admission.

Drop-in group fitness classes welcome participants 13 years and older.

Reserve a fitness class with the reserved drop-in system

Reserved drop-in activities require advance sign-up. Reserve your spot online with RecOnline or the Saanich Recreation app beginning at 7:30am, up to seven calendar days in advance.

Reserved drop-in attendance procedure

Saanich has introduced an attendance procedure for reserved drop-in activities to help make spaces available when participants can no longer attend.

When you reserve a space:

  • At sign-up, participants will be asked to acknowledge the attendance procedure by checking a box.
  • When arriving for a RDI activity, participants must scan-in or check in with the instructor or facilitator to confirm attendance.
  • If a participant misses a RDI activity without withdrawing, temporary sign-up limitations or charges may be placed on their account.

Withdrawing early gives another participant the opportunity to attend.
