Perfect year-round, these activities allow participants to stay in shape while having a blast. The two or three hours a week dedicated to exercise should not only be “productive” but also engaging and enjoyable.
5 New Sports to Try
Trapeze
The era of tennis lessons at vacation resorts might be ending. Now, trapeze is in vogue. More of a circus art than a sport, it’s for those looking to try something different, who love adrenaline, aren’t afraid of heights, and enjoy aerial acrobatics. Participants are harnessed and perform in complete safety, with a net below.
Club Med offers trapeze at several of its resorts, from the Dominican Republic to the Maldives.
The “Phased” Workout
This is a full-body activity, but not traditional. It lasts about 45 minutes — slightly shorter than usual body weight classes — and works like this: the first 10 minutes focus on waking up and activating muscles, followed by 20 minutes of exercises to enhance body stability and strengthen limbs and back. This is followed by 10 minutes of fun challenges and 5 minutes for cool-down.

Climbing
Climbing offers a wild alternative to experiencing the mountains. There are also those who enjoy practicing this activity in the city, year-round, in specialized facilities.
In Milan, for example, Urbanwall is one of the largest indoor climbing gyms in Europe. You can train independently or enroll in structured courses. It’s perfect for healthy fun or for preparing for the next mountain season.
Can Participating in Sports Improve Your Life?
Contemporary Pole
This is contemporary dance, but with a pole. After a few pole dance lessons to learn the basic techniques, you can start attending contemporary pole classes, which involve learning a choreography.
Over time, with the support of the instructor, you can also begin to unleash your creativity, creating movements inspired by the background music.
This happens at Phoenix Aerial & Dance Studio in Rome, near St. Peter’s Basilica.
Longboard Dancing
Whether it’s the influence of social media or the allure of videos filmed on sloping streets in South Africa, Hawaii, California, and Australia, skateboarding — especially longboard dancing — is gaining popularity. The number of enrollees in schools in major cities like Milan is increasing.
Snowave Academy offers courses for all levels and ages.
