Please take note that during load shedding our treadmills and certain cardio equipment will not be operational. Additionally, we will not have any hot water as there is no backup power to the water pumps.

Bookings are now compulsory during peak gymnasium hours

In adherence to the official government restrictions on places of business and the number of people that are allowed to access our facilities, access to the gym facilities at both Stellenbosch and Tygerberg facilities will only be allowed during peak times (5:30-07:00 and 16:00-19:00) if you have a valid online booking.

During off-peak times, access will be restricted based on availability, should the maximum number of bookings have not been reached, on a first-come-first-served basis. As all students are allowed back to Stellenbosch University, we have seen a significant increase in the demand for gym memberships and we need to tighten measures around our access control. It is critical that we keep the facility and all our members safe.

Online bookings are essential whether you are coming to the gym, our group exercise classes, or the swimming pools. The limit on the number of people allowed in the facility at any given time includes all areas.

Bookings can be made up to 7 days in advance by clicking on the following links:

Stellenbosch:   http://bit.ly/matiesgymstellies   

Tygerberg: http://bit.ly/matiesgymtygerberg

Due to increased demand, bookings will be limited to one booking per member per day.

Please take note that the outdoor pool will be set at a 25m orientation from Wednesday at 2pm till Thursday close of business. Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday the pool will be set at the 50m orientation.

Please take note that face masks are compulsory when entering the facility. However, facemasks are not compulsory when partaking in vigorous exercise while keeping a 2-meter distance.
