Athletic course question

<p>Does anyone know if there are classes that i can take that count as a credit such as any type of mma or jiu-jitsu. I’ve heard they have classes such as bowling, golfing, and others. I’m just not sure of what kind of courses they offer and do you get credits for them?</p>

<p>You get 1 credit for Leisure Activities such as…</p>

<p>Karate
Judo ( I don’t see the ones you’ve mentioned.)
Soccer
Basketball
Tennis
Track and Field
Badminton
Volleyball
Aerobics
Social Dance
Swim Fitness
Swimming
Scuba Diving
Racquetball
Weight Training
Jogging
and others</p>

<p>^^^In addition to the for-credit courses, there are first come, first served classes at the Rec Center. I also remember seeing an ad for private jiu-jitsu lessons, but I haven’t heard of either that or mixed martial arts being offered as a for-credit course. The for-credit courses are in the Kinesiology (KIN) department.</p>

<p>wen i was in college in the olden days i took a ton of pe classes. volleyball (many times), badminton, bowling, golf.</p>

<p>it was fun. in fact, i am thinking of taking some more now!!</p>

<p>: )</p>

<p>Is there a site where it lists all of these kind of courses?</p>

<p>Here’s the course listings out of the UA catalog. </p>

<p>[University</a> of Alabama Undergraduate Catalog 2008-10](<a href=“Page Not Found | The University of Alabama”>Page Not Found | The University of Alabama)</p>

<p>OK, using the search function on the course catalog link on Mybama (under the Academics tab), here’s what I dredged up for Fall 2010, using the following search criteria: 1 credit courses, Kinesiology Dept., activity/studio course. Hope this helps.</p>

<p>It can be hard to get into these “credit” classes for a first semester freshmen. However, as SEA_Tide says the Rec Center has there are first come, first served classes (not for credit). There are also many intramural activities to join.</p>
