Nice place to check off your list. They seem to run on drop ins so they have it figured out and the regular members were welcoming. Not a lot of English being spoken here but that and to the experience. For downtown Paris it's great. read more

Well, after all the baguette, butter, duck and cheese I've been eating I figured I needed to drop in to do at least one WOD on my vacation. Dropping in was pretty simple, I decided to come by a few days earlier for a schedule but you can find it online. They have a crossfit class almost every half hour past. Had to sign a waiver and pay my drop in fee (25 euros...ouch. Wished they had the option to buy a shirt instead...but they were out of stock of any tanks or shirts anyway) The front desk actually held onto my backpack because I didn't have a lock, I thought that was nice. They had a women's locker room (I assume a men's somewhere, too) that had lockers, showers, and a hairdryer (saver!) Anyway, I joined in on the WOD. There were two coaches. The main lead spoke exclusively in French but I saw the WOD written in front earlier so I knew what to expect and it wasn't that hard to follow along. It was a bit easier because this day's WOD utilized rows, burpees, plyo boxes, and running. Through the WOD the coaches did come up to me to ask if I need any assistance. And many other students were nice as well. I got a good sweat, took a picture with the extremely nice coaches, showered, and went on my way. I cannot recall if the showers had soap or not, I brought my own. No towels were available though. Now the space could be an issue. The ceilings were quite lower than I'm used to and you're restricted with some space. I had to move around to do the burpees and move my plyo box so my partner wouldn't hit her head (she was quite taller than me) on a ceiling beam. I have no idea how they can maneuver a snatch class with the space. Nevertheless, this was a nice experience. Glad I was able to drop by. read more

Absolutely loved working out at this Box. But a bit pricey. I trained for 3 months during my study abroad trip in Paris. Definitely got my money's worth. Coaches were super friendly most spoke French and some English, but it definitely helped my French improve being with native French speakers. The box has a lot of different classes besides the WOD which is unlike any other box I've been to. Everyone at the box is friendly and it's a great place to train and just chill after a hard workout. Definitely would recommend checking out this box if you're in Paris. read more

I read the reviews before coming and had my expectations in check for a so-so experience. I had an excellent time and the crossfit instructors were super friendly and accommodating. Please remember you are in France and they speak French, not English. I'm fluent in French and had to translate for other English speaking drop-ins. They would have managed fine without me. The warm-up, strength-skill, and WOD were 100% in French (as they should be - because it's in France). Nonetheless if you are a regular crossfitter then you'll figure it out. The other participants were all French upper class professionals (lawyers, accountants, etc.) getting their early WOD in before going to the office. There were comments about not dropping bumper plates on the floor like a normal box. This is true - structurally the building is not meant for this. They will ask you to drop weights on pads. Be mindful if you're looking to do a deadlift EMOM set. I'm looking forward to come back. I made some good friends there in a short time. N.B. One of the instructors, David, was wearing a Bayou City Crossfit T-shirt from H-Town with a image of the Alamo cannon and "come and take it" written on the back. I found the very welcoming coming from the Bayou City. read more

After reading the reviews we almost didn't go. We did have some issues with online registration, so we just went in while we were in the area visiting the Louvre. Registering and getting a spot was easy. It was 25 euros to drop in. The class was good, the coach went around to each person and was correcting form. It is a tight space but not unreasonable. People are correct about not being allowed to drop weights - but hey you know that going in reading the reviews and you get the novelty of working out in a historic building near the Louvre! Definitely recommend going if you're vacationing in the area and want a good workout! read more

Just let me tell you first that I am French and I live in US. Therefore, when I went to Crossfit Louvre, I decided to be a foreigner to see how I will be treated. Well let me tell you "good luck to find someone who speaks English properly or English at all". The staff was very rude - and of course easy to be rude when they think you don't understand but you do. When I got in, I was not interested to do their WOD and wanted to do my own workout from home. Everything that is wrong about this box: No dropping weights, regardless. You will need to use floor pads if you plan on doing anything with a barbell. Rules on open gym and coach supervision. There's no space for people to do things. Coaches don't know what they are doing. Do not go there. This is just a disappointment. You are better off lifting at your hotel if you can. I may be spoiled as all the boxes I have tried so far were in US, but I was hopeful that the only box in France would have high standards. Space and cleanliness are questionable, staff is not welcoming, and other members are rude. Drop-in is 25 euros, take that money and go to a Cafe instead! read more

My experience at Reebok CrossFit Louvre was awesome. I was in Paris for a week with family and I did three drop ins. The coaches and fellow athletes were all very friendly, the work outs were fun and challenging. I have been doing crossfit for a few years but am not a natural so dropping in is always socially intimidating for me. These guys made it easy and fun. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to drop in to a crossfit class in Paris. read more

WORST BOX EXPERIENCE EVER!!! I`ve visited a lot of boxes abroad during my holidays - all boxes, whether in the US or in Europe - were great and had nice and qualified coaches, but Crossfit Louvre was a disaster! At first sight, the box looks quite fancy, though a little bit Reebok commercialized. But appearances are deceitful. After paying 25 (!!) euros per person, we were on our own. The "coach" didn´t introduce himself to us nor was he in any way interested in us - in all the other boxes we´ve visited, the coaches were very welcoming, asked about our crossfit skill level, sometimes they even tried to accommodate our wishes regarding the workout. Even though the "coach" realized that we don´t speak any French, he hold the entire class in French. We were lucky, that we had to make up teams of three and that a local guy in our team translated everything into english for us. Otherwise we wouldn`t have understood ANYTHING. And obviously, the coach could speak at least a little bit of English, but he just didn't care. The class was really overcrowded (about 25 people), so no wonder that the coach lost track of everything. The "warm up" consisted of doing some arm circles - that´s it!! And as my previous speaker already mentioned, you have to use plates when using a barbell and there is no weight dropping allowed. What the hell??! Crossfit without weight dropping??! Furthermore, the box had very poor equipment: the "jump ropes" were home-made of chopped pieces of small tubes (?), and they had only about four little plates for the barbells, just lots of 10kg plates and more.... The entire class was really confusing (even for the locals, who at least understood the language...), nobody knew what to do, and without a clear line. The coach was very incompetent and showed almost nothing. The guy in our team had his first crossfit class, so complex movements like weightlifting exercises were completely new to him. He had to do thrusters and front squats without having anyone showing him how to do them!!! I could list so much more things that are wrong about this box. Just one advice, that my previous speaker had given already: AVOID THIS BOX!!! Spend your money in the nice cafés and restaurants or just save it, but do not waste it here. Or try one of the other boxes in Paris, hopefully those are better... read more

I went in to just lift and didn't do any of the WOD's so this is a review mainly about my experience of the space. Good: Friendly folks, easy drop in process, lockers and showers, lifting platforms, store upstairs for Crossfit gear, and located near Metro and Starbucks. Bad: Cramped space, bathrooms and locker rooms could be cleaner, no first-aid like bandaids, the usual Crossfit lifting form and etiquette (don't walk in front of someone doing a CJ or snatch), and finally the main reason two stars are deducted; weights cannot be dropped (more venting below). I can't fathom how one can practice weightlifting and not be allowed to drop weights from over head. At CF Louvre, you have to use these springy boxes to break any dropped weights from over head. IMO, bouncing heavy weights and being forced to fail on these boxes can cause injury. I understand CF Louvre's structural limitations but as a box that charges Crossfit premiums, I would expect the ability to drop weights at the very least. Other than that, there aren't very many options in Paris to lift so head to Crossfit Louvre. read more

It's a very different crossfit gym. $100 euros to drop in and get a shirt for me and my girlfriend. That was a painful surprise but I get that they have a business to run. They wouldn't let me drop any bumpers even though that's what they're made for. Literally no one even greeted us. I felt so uncomfortable working out there and won't ever again. read more

Very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Creative WODs, but small and crowded box consistent with other boxes in urban settings. Great place to workout if you're in Paris. read more
