Getting to practice
Practices alternate locations throughout the week to allow athletes to train on both men's and women's equipment.
Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, practices are at the Donald R. Shepherd Women's Gymnastics Facility which is accessible by the Ann Arbor Ride Buses and are free with an Mcard. Take the 62 bus to stop at the Tennis Center, and the gym is right across from the bus stop. For members with a car, there is also free parking outside of the facility. We try our best to coordinate carpool rides for everyone when leaving the gym.
On Wednesday and Sunday, practice is at the Newt Loken Men's Gymnastics Facility which is located between South Quad and the Intermural Building. Most members walk to the gym, but there are several bus routes run near the route.
Pro tip: Plug in 2300 S State Street, Ann Arbor (Donald R. Shepherd) into apple or google maps and hit transit for the 62 bus!
