Most fitness centres are open. We’re working with community centre associations to reopen the remaining fitness centres.

Masks are mandatory in all indoor public spaces for those 12 years and older, even if you are vaccinated. If you do not have a mask, one will be provided at the front desk.

Dunbar Fitness Centre  — located near the University of British Columbia on Vancouver's west side — is a fully-accessible space with cardio and strength training machines, indoor bicycles, free weights, and functional props.

 The sauna, whirlpool, change rooms, showers, and lockers are not available due to COVID-19 safety measures.
