Expand your Sports & Fitness horizons

This is your chance to explore new skills and experiences in a friendly atmosphere with great teachers and classmates — people who are excited about the same things you are. There are several groups for each course and we’ll make sure you’re in the right one for you.

The choice is yours!

Setting up your day is easy. You'll choose one course for the morning, 9:30-12:00, and another for the afternoon, 1:30-4:00. A half-day course is 12.5 hours of class time.

For example, you might do the Sports Experience from 9:30 to 12. Video Production from 1:30 to 4:00. That sounds like a great week. View the full Xploration schedule to create your custom week.
