The fitness room
ALORA members may access the ALORA fitness room in the Marshall Building (open from 8 am - 8 pm, Monday to Friday).
La Muette ALORA activity rooms
The La Muette ALORA activity rooms are open and fitness classes are taking place. Here is the new class schedule. More information on fitness class descriptions and contact information may be found on the ALORA website.
Language classes are beginning too, in person and virtually, depending upon the class. Contact the teachers for more information on English, French, Spanish, German, Chinese, Italian, Russian, Portuguese and Japanese classes.
Boulogne ALORA activity rooms
After several years of heavy renovation, a new 200m² space on -1 level is being finalised and we are hopeful that it will be available for activities in the very near future.
We will of course keep you informed as soon as we have any additional information.
IMPORTANT: You need a valid medical certificate to practice any ALORA sport activities, including the fitness room.

living dreams acting workshop |
|
22-23 October from 10 am - 5 pm Modo Yoga Paris 11
Join Kirk Baltz (Reservoir Dogs, Dancing with Wolves, NCIS, Natural Born Killers, etc.) and Naty Bienvenu for an incredible two day workshop for Paris actors (pros and non-pros), around dreams and how to develop a more instinctive acting craft that is more connected to our deep emotions.
Dreams can send us simple and direct messages leading to immensely creative, intuitive, insightful work. Through relaxation exercises and breath work, we will connect to our inner & intuitive self, and let ourselves follow the flow of our dreams, free from expectations and noises from the monkey-mind. We will then explore acting choices and character’s needs.
This workshop will be in English and French and it is designed for all levels of actors, and both those who are familiar and unfamiliar with dreamwork.
ALORA members benefit from a special price until 1 October (250€ instead of 275€).
For more info and to book your spot.
Contact: Naty BIENVENU.
