Best sport studios in Paris

One of the greatest perks of living in Paris is the vast array of exciting sports studios available for you to explore and enjoy. Whether it's Indoor Cycling, pool cycling, various types of Yoga, Cardio Boxing, intense HIIT bootcamps, or climbing, whatever you're looking for, you'll find it here. Check out our curated list of top sports studios below:

Monday's Sports Club

1. Dynamo Cycling

Drawing inspiration from Soul Cycle in NYC, Dynamo became the pioneer in France to introduce indoor cycling classes that blend choreography with energetic music, led by a coach who not only motivates but also inspires participants with empowering and uplifting quotes during the sessions.

The sessions take place in a dimly lit environment, enabling participants to concentrate on the experience without the concern of being observed while sweating. It's an enjoyable and freeing activity, similar to clubbing, but with the added advantage of enhancing your health.

2. Riise yoga

Riise yoga, part of the same group, is conducted in a softly lit setting infused with the delightful aroma of Palo santo. Their signature class combines cardio training with vinyasa yoga, incorporating cardio exercises twice during the session. 

Instructors will motivate participants with inspiring and uplifting quotes with music in the background. The playlists will change based on the instructor.

They also provide advanced classes, and also pilates, sound baths, and reformer sessions. 

3. Punch boxing

Punch combines boxing and bootcamp, each making up 50% of the workout. While prior experience isn't necessary, a basic level of fitness is recommended. I know someone who nearly fainted during a session, so it's important not to overexert yourself, especially if you only exercise occasionally. Each class begins with an introduction to basic movements for newcomers. You might even spot some instructors who are also Master coaches from Dynamo—they're exceptional.

The Sanctuary Group

1. Space Cycle

Space Cycle, which opened in 2024, showcases a significant investment in its studio's design. Coaches cycle on elevated platforms, surrounded by dynamic lights that they can control. You're still cycling in the dark, and there's definitely an incredible energy. 

2. Poses Yoga

Poses is a very nice Parisian yoga studio with exceptional yoga instructors. They have three types of classes: Yoga flow (vinyasa), Pilates flow (pilates + cardio) and Barre flow (muscle reinforcement inspired by Ballet dancers "barre au sol" training). 

3. Le Cercle Boxing

Le Cercle Boxing is 50% boxing, 50% bootcamp. Choose your favorite coach and release some stress by punching those bags!

4. Aqua By

Aqua By offers a unique experience. If you're a fan of high-intensity cardio, this might not be your ideal choice, as the water resistance naturally slows down the pedaling. However, it can be an enjoyable activity to try with friends and you will still burn a lot of calories.

5. Decibel 

Decibel is a sport studios that offers an experience similar to clubbing. Participate in a 45-minute dance workout that alternates between cardio routines and muscle strengthening, all set in a dark environment with dynamic lighting effects.

6. Drip

Drip provides a rigorous 45-minute workout session. You'll engage in numerous mountain climbers, jumping jacks, squat jumps, and burpees. In addition to bodyweight exercises, you'll incorporate dumbbells, kettlebells, medicine balls, assault bikes, and skiergs for a comprehensive workout that will leave you feeling powerful.

Other sports studios

Episod Sports Studios

Episod provides a wide variety of classes. With seven locations throughout the city, they offer nearly every type of sport, including Yoga, Reformer, Cycling, Bootcamp, Athletic, and Rowing. For further details, visit their website.

Barry's Bootcamp

Barry's Bootcamp is an extremely challenging fitness studio. If you're not particularly athletic, it's best to avoid it initially. Begin with easier classes and gradually work your way up. Barry's has an extensive global presence. You can choose to start on the floor or the treadmill, with workouts consisting of 50% interval training and 50% strength training—prepare to feel the burn. If running isn't your preference, you can opt for a double floor spot.

Climbing District

Climbing District features six studios with expansive climbing walls, ranging from beginner-friendly to highly advanced, ensuring there's something for everyone to enjoy. It's a venue where you can blend climbing, relaxation, and training. For those interested in working, there are coworking spaces available! These rooms boast a post-industrial design and serve as cultural hubs where the city's climbing and trendy community gathers. The atmosphere is welcoming and inclusive, with a strong emphasis on accommodating individuals with disabilities, offering a fresh climbing experience.
