Gyms with a trial

The Belgian list is small but covers both language regions, with Ghent in Flanders and Mouscron, Ath and Charleroi in Wallonia. Trials range from a free first session to a short trial period, and some gyms combine the trial with a first class so you can see how the group programme works before you decide.

Belgian trial sessions

Belgian gyms that offer a trial session

Try a club, a class or a CrossFit box before you commit to a membership.

A trial session lets you test a Belgian gym before signing up, and the clubs that confirm one run from Ghent and Knokke-Heist in Flanders to Mouscron, Ath and Charleroi in Wallonia, including a Sportoase centre and a CrossFit box.

Trials differ in form: a free first visit, an introductory class or a short paid pass. Check whether you need to book ahead, whether a coach introduces you to the equipment and what happens to your details if you do not join.
