Rejoignez Antoine  certains samedis de 10h00 à 11h00  pour une séance de fitness guidée en extérieur conçue pour vous aider à vous préparer pour La French Run 2026 !

Du samedi 22 août au samedi 19 septembre, profitez de séances hebdomadaires dynamiques au Glenmore Athletic Park. Veuillez noter qu’il s’agit de séances de remise en forme structurées, et non de courses de groupe. Chaque séance combine cardio, renforcement musculaire et exercices de préparation à la compétition.

Que vous visiez un nouveau record personnel ou que vous vous prépariez à franchir votre première ligne d’arrivée, ces séances vous aideront à développer votre force, votre endurance et votre confiance dans une ambiance conviviale et motivante.

Les places sont  limitées à 10 participants  par session, alors inscrivez-vous vite !

Veuillez noter que les séances peuvent être annulées en cas de conditions météorologiques extrêmes.

Les participants doivent organiser leur transport jusqu’au point de rendez-vous. Ces séances sont encadrées par un membre du personnel de l’Alliance Française, et non par un coach sportif professionnel certifié. Chaque participant est responsable de sa propre condition physique et de sa participation en toute sécurité. Veuillez vous habiller en fonction de la météo et apporter de l’eau.

Vous recevrez un courriel de confirmation après votre inscription.

How do you make your coffee?

Did you miss our coffee workshop last January? Here’s another chance! Join Marie-Pierre, a former barista, for an immersive workshop that dives into the art of coffee.

You will discover the pour-over method—a manual brewing technique that lets you control every detail, from water temperature and flow rate to grind size and coffee quantity, bringing out the purest flavors in every cup.

No equipment is needed; everything is included in the price. Just bring your curiosity (and perhaps a craving for caffeine!). The event will be conducted in French, so a good command of the language is recommended.

Join us on Tuesday, September 15th, for an energizing outdoor running session at Stanley Park! This activity is a great opportunity to stay active, enjoy the fresh air, and prepare for the upcoming French Run 2026, all in a friendly and motivating atmosphere.

The goal of this run is not to win, break a record, or compete, but simply to enjoy a great moment together, move our bodies, and start the good resolutions for 2026 on the right foot. Whether you run, jog, or take it easy, what matters most is being together and having fun while staying active.

This outdoor 5K run is open to all levels. Come alone or with friends and enjoy a social, relaxed, and positive experience.

Please be aware that if weather conditions are too severe, this activity may be cancelled.

Participants are responsible for arranging their own transportation to the meeting point. Alliance Française staff members are not professional sports coaches, and each participant is responsible for their own safety. It is recommended to dress appropriately for the weather and bring water. You will receive an email with all necessary details a few days prior to the event.

We hope to see many of you there!
