About ANU Sport

ANU Sport is the sport and recreation hub of the Australian National University in Acton, offering one of Canberra's most comprehensive fitness and activity precincts. Spacious and well-equipped, the gym draws a friendly, diverse crowd of students, staff and locals who value a welcoming, no-pressure training environment.

Beyond the gym floor, ANU Sport is built around variety. A broad group fitness program, reformer pilates, short skill courses and bespoke personal training sit alongside more than thirty sports clubs and generous social-sport spaces, so members can mix structured strength work with cardio, dance, yoga or team activities all in the one place.

Facilities span ovals, courts, halls, a dojo and dedicated workout rooms, reflecting its role as a genuine multi-sport campus centre rather than a standard gym. With facilities that are well maintained and staff regularly praised for being approachable and helpful, it suits anyone in the Acton area looking for an active, community-minded place to train and play.
