It's important to stay healthy while you're studying. Whether you're a couch potato or a fitness fanatic, we have the sports or fitness program to suit you.
And you don’t need to be a student with us to sign up to many of our programs. Students, staff and local community members can all reap the benefits of an active lifestyle.
We have state of the art Health, Fitness and Wellbeing facilities on three of our campuses (Melbourne, North Sydney and Brisbane) together with partnerships with local fitness facilities in other locations. ACU Active offers daily fitness classes including boxing, HIIT, Yoga and Pilates, which are open to all students, staff and the local community.
You can get fit, enjoy the health benefits of playing sports and have lots of fun with your friends by playing socially. Each of our campuses features a range of social sporting opportunities.
Staying healthy isn’t all about doing 100 sit-ups every day – there are many different elements to wellbeing. We see the whole person, and want to help you take care of all aspects of your health.

Our facilities, from sports ovals to moot courts to health training simulation centres, help make our campuses fantastic places to learn.
