How much does a beginner class cost in Paris?
Most studios in Paris offer introductory packages for new clients โ typically 3 classes for a reduced rate. A single beginner class usually costs between โฌ25 and โฌ55 depending on the studio and location. Private one-on-one sessions cost significantly more but progress faster.
