Where the concierge points people first
- Temple Noble Art — A Paris group of boxing gyms with several addresses in this directory, built around timetabled group classes. The kind of place where a visitor can turn up for a session rather than sign for a year. (48.8789, 2.3283)
- Le Cercle Boxing — Studio-style boxing with classes on a schedule, aimed at people who want a hard hour of pad and bag work rather than a fight career. (48.8586, 2.3767)
- Brooklyn Fitboxing Arc de Triomphe — Fitness boxing on sensor-fitted bags, to music, with no sparring. Good for a workout, not for learning to box. (48.8768, 2.3015)
- Boxing Beats Aubervilliers — A proper amateur club just north of the city in Aubervilliers, with a long competitive tradition. Go if you already box and want real training partners. (48.9067, 2.3931)
- Savate Boxe Francaise — A club for savate, the French boxing that lets you kick with shoes on. Worth a class for the sheer oddity of learning a combat sport that is barely taught outside France. (48.8760, 2.3423)

Clubs run on the school year
Paris boxing splits into two worlds. Studios and franchises sell single classes and short packs, and that is where a visitor fits. Associative clubs, the associations sportives, are run like French schools: sign-ups happen in September, the season runs to June, and membership comes with a federation license, so a one-week guest is awkward for them. If you want a traditional club, write ahead and ask whether they accept a cours d'essai, a trial session. In savate, levels are shown by colored gloves rather than belts.
