Ball games meet in the gym, salsa/yoga/aerobics meet in the studio, which has a separate entrance from the outside of the building, closer to István street.
• The McDaniel calendar is slightly different from the BSM/E calendar, so check with the instructor about meeting times.

You can also use the weight room at the gym, see this page for more information.
