- Please download and complete the Par-Q & You health history questionnaire, then submit it to fitness@duke.edu.
- Submit your Personal Training or Pilates Request Form.
- After your submission is received, you will be paired with a Personal Trainer or Pilates Instructor based on availability or specialization via e-mail, and next steps will be provided.
