Risley Hall was the first gymnasium to serve Kutztown students. With the dedication of Keystone Hall and Field House, Risley became available for expanded extracurricular activities and now houses dance classes, evening aerobics and other fun events and activities. All students are invited to participate in the KU dance program and can find the head of the program in an office just off the gym.

Risley also houses a top-of-the-line free-weight room open to students, faculty and staff. Frequented by student athletes, the weight room is a great place for a workout.
