Focused on the development of the student-athlete, the Manhattanville Department of Athletics views strength and conditioning as one of the most important developmental tools, and the fine facilities inside Kennedy Gymnasium are a testament to that philosophy.

The strength and conditioning department is housed inside Healthworks, a large, state-of-the-art weight and cardiovascular training facility.  The room includes several power development stations, glut ham benches, decline abdominal benches and physioballs and cardiovascular machines.

In early 2008, Manhattanville College opened a new building in the center of campus that includes a first-class workout area for the general student population, which makes Healthworks home exclusively to student-athletes.

Healthworks is supervised by Adora Salvati, a graduate of San Diego State University who will serve as the Valiants’ Graduate Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach.
