Workshops exclusive to women, introductions to the rules of women's sports, and showcases and documentaries that honor female athletes: this is a celebration of women and their achievements in sports. Who runs the world?
Sport for women only
Boxing
The Amunanti association introduces you to English boxing! The workshop is aimed at girls aged 12 and over, women and non-binary people. Don't forget to book, and you'll become an uppercut pro!
Football
Every Wednesday afternoon during the Paris 2024 Games, we'll be donning our cleats (or good sneakers) to join the Graines de Footballeuses association, which promotes the practice of women's soccer. Introductory and training workshops are open to women and girls aged 3 and over. In short, the perfect activity for becoming a champion of the round ball.
Gentle Gym
Curvy or need a breather? Head to the Jardin de Reuilly (12e) for a light, gentle gym session. The Artaxe association offers sessions inspired by somatic methods such as yoga, pilates, meditation, dance and relaxation, as well as strengthening exercises. And it's suitable for women of all levels!
Mixed sports for women
Cross training competition
For more than a decade, the You Camps Training program has provided sports coaching, primarily for women. Celebrating this milestone, the association is hosting a cross-training competition to promote the sport. Participants, either solo or in teams, will aim to complete as many repetitions as possible on an exercise circuit designed by the coaches. And for those not competing, there's the option to train alongside the competitors or simply offer encouragement.
Introduction to women's para-basketball
Discover the dynamics of women's handball by participating in an immersive initiation with the Sensations Inclusives association. You'll master shooting, dribbling, and passing before engaging in brief matches. The program prioritizes girls and women, organizing them into balanced groups to ensure inclusive play between able-bodied individuals and those with mental disabilities.
Shows in honor of women
La Cité Audacieuse celebrates the Paris 2024 Games
La Cité Audacieuse, located in the 6th arrondissement and managed by the Fondation des Femmes, occupies a former Vaugirard elementary school dedicated to the advancement of women's rights. It offers an opportunity to engage in the Olympic spirit with complimentary activities during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Enjoy inclusive running workshops, yoga classes, self-defense sessions, and more—request the full program!
Hip-hop
A dance of dialogue and intermingling, hip-hop takes pride of place in this show by the MehDia company. It is inspired by six women from different backgrounds (Cyprus, Italy, Greece, France and Bolivia), each dancing with her own culture, codes and language. A rich and moving show!
Cinema
But, by the way, since when have women had the right to take part in the Olympic Games? Discover the story of Alice Milliat and all the other sportswomen who fought for the same right as men to enter sporting competitions. Attend one of the screenings of the film Les Incorrectes, by Anne-Cécile Genre (2021), followed by a discussion.
Alice Milliat, a pioneering sportswoman
Alice Milliat, a pioneering feminist and elite athlete, played a crucial role in enabling women to participate in the athletic events of the 1928 Amsterdam Games. Long overlooked, Alice Milliat is now being honored and celebrated in the 14th arrondissement. Throughout the summer, enjoy screenings, conferences, sports activities, and educational workshops!
