Gaucho REC (Recreation & Exercise Classes) gives participants the opportunity to learn a new skill, fine tune an old skill, or simply stay in shape. There are no pressures, exams, or grades to worry about—just relax and enjoy! Classes meet once or twice weekly throughout the whole day. Classes are open to UCSB students, faculty, staff, alumni, affiliates and community members (age restrictions apply).

Class Fees

Class fees cover salaries for instructors and some class equipment and supplies. You may need to purchase additional supplies for individual projects.

Students may attend the first class to spectate at no cost. In order to participate, students must pay for class in full or pay a $5 drop in fee to the night greeter. Drop-in fee option is only available at the first class session and will not be applied to the class fee, should you decide to continue attending. Students may not pay on a class-by-class basis.
