Facilities for Sport-related Teaching and Research
At Moray House, we have a wide range of sports facilities on offer to enhance research and studies of our staff and students.
Biomechanics Lab and associated equipment
Dance Studio
The bespoke dance studio-lab has beautiful views of Arthur’s Seat and is one of the largest in the city, with a working capacity for 40 dancers. The studio is supported by up-to-date audio/visual technology and there is a viewing gallery that provides opportunities to observe teaching and performances.

Psychology Lab
Strength and Conditioning Performance Gym
The performance gym is a bespoke training facility catering for a range of performance needs. It offers a variety of equipment: including free weights (bars, dumb bells and medicine balls), pulleys, exercise bikes, dome balance balls and benches.
Swimming Pool
Our swimming pool can be used as a laboratory for aquatics research. With underwater cameras, poolside monitors and a variable depth swimming pool floor, we can monitor swimmers’ performance and analyse aquatic rehabilitation exercises as if we were in the biomechanics lab.
The swimming pool is also used for training and teaching.
