Questions and Answers

We’re reopening on 2 January 2027. Advance sales of memberships will begin in early to mid-August 2026 – make sure you secure your membership early.

We have three membership plans, all with a 12-month term:

Performance CHF 1,890 per year – for independent trainers, limited to 500 memberships. Coaching CHF 2,890 per year – including an initial assessment, 6 personal training sessions and 6 body scans, limited to 100. Transformation CHF 4,190 per year – including performance diagnostics, nutritional advice and physiotherapy or massages, limited to 100.

There’s also a one-off deposit of CHF 50 for the membership wristband. This will be refunded when you return it.

You can book your membership now during the pre-sale period; it’s valid from 2 January 2027.

Papieri Gym:

Monday to Friday 6 am–10 pm
Saturday and Sunday 8 am–6 pm
Public holidays: same as Sunday, 8 am–6 pm
The gym will be closed on 25 December.

Please leave the training area at least 20 minutes before closing time so that you can shower and get changed in peace. We close on the dot.

Riedstrasse Personal Training Studio:
No fixed opening hours – you train there by arrangement with your coach.

That depends on your subscription.

Performance: 1 body scan including analysis. You can book personal training sessions at any time.

Coaching: Initial assessment with goal setting, 6 personal training sessions including adjustments to your training plan, and 6 body scans to monitor your progress.

Transformation: everything included in the Coaching package, plus 3 VO₂max tests and a choice of 6 physiotherapy sessions or 3 massages.

You can add extra personal training sessions and assessments individually to any subscription.

And it works the other way round too: as long as you have an active personal training subscription or a small-group subscription, the Performance subscription is included free of charge – with unlimited access to the whole gym and all group classes. So you don’t pay any extra for the gym.

Yes, all of them. In each of the three membership plans, at no extra cost and with no limits. Currently, that’s 14 classes a week – Yoga, HIIT/Strength, Athletic, Core & More, Wake Up HIIT and Hypertrophy, six days a week.

However, you don’t need a membership to take part: a single entry costs CHF 40 and is valid for the gym or a group class. A 10-session pass costs CHF 350.

Small-group personal training is not included. This is a separate service with its own training plan and a maximum of six people per group – single entry passes and 10-session passes are not valid for this.

Yes, registration via our booking tool is compulsory and binding. This ensures you have a place.

If you are unable to attend, please cancel your booking yourself – at least 12 hours before the course starts. After that, the lesson will be deducted from your subscription or the full course fee will be charged.

Even if you’re unable to attend at short notice, please still cancel your booking so that someone from the waiting list can take your place.

And please arrive on time. For safety and training reasons, anyone arriving late will not be allowed to join the session – their place will then go to someone on the waiting list.

Yes. A single entry costs CHF 40 and is valid either for the gym or for a group class. The 10-session pass costs CHF 350 and is valid for both.

This isn’t possible for small-group personal training – for that, you’ll need a membership, as you’ll be following your own personalised training plan.

Probably yes – but not straight away. The certification for the Papieri Studio can only be assessed after it has opened; it isn’t possible before then. We’ll start the process as soon as we’re allowed to.

We’re already certified for personal training and small-group personal training. Depending on your health insurance provider and any supplementary cover, some of the costs are already covered for these services.

The Papieri studio is still under construction, so unfortunately we can’t let you in before it opens.

Instead, why not pop into our existing studio at Riedstrasse 7 in Cham for a consultation? There, we’ll answer all your questions, show you how we work, and give you a feel for what to expect at Papieri. Please book an appointment in advance so that we can really set aside some time for you.

Because you can’t get the best out of the facilities if everyone’s queuing for the same piece of equipment at the same time. We’ve deliberately capped membership at 700. You should be able to train when you’re here – not spend your time queuing.

A towel, always. It must be placed on every piece of equipment used, including during group classes.

You’ll also need clean indoor trainers – not the ones you wear on the street – and sportswear. Your upper body must remain covered.

Bring drinks in a sealable plastic sports bottle – no glass is allowed in the training area. Eating and drinking take place in the lounge.

Only during training sessions. Once the gym closes, locked lockers will be opened and cleared out, and we accept no liability for their contents. It’s best not to bring any valuables with you at all.

At our own training ground, yes, provided no other members are recognisable. Please respect the privacy of others and of our team.

Filming is strictly prohibited in changing rooms, showers and toilet facilities. For commercial filming – such as your own coaching content or advertising – you will need our written consent.

All subscriptions are for 12 months when purchased in advance.

From the opening in January 2027, shorter terms will also be available – Performance for 1, 3 or 6 months and Coaching for 6 months. Calculated on a monthly basis, the annual subscription is better value.

If you do not wish to renew, you must give notice in writing at least 30 days before the expiry date – by email to , in person at the studio or by registered post. Unless you give notice, your subscription will automatically renew for the same duration.

In the event of pregnancy, military service, illness or an accident, you can pause your subscription if you’re unable to attend for at least 14 days. Please contact us within 30 days, and we’ll add the time to the end of your subscription period.

Don’t want to commit at all? A single entry costs CHF 40, and a 10-session pass costs CHF 350.

The 12-week programme includes access to the gym for the duration of the programme; group classes are not included.

Before your first training session, we’ll carry out an initial assessment. This is a prerequisite for targeted training with us and is not charged for separately.

You get the same as in one-to-one training – a training plan tailored to you and regularly updated. You simply share the coach with up to six people per group. That’s why it’s better value:

You can choose your training times freely within the available slots. Until 31 December 2026, we’ll be training at Riedstrasse, including in the evenings. From 2 January 2027, small group sessions will take place at Papieri, from morning until midday.

View training times

Body scan without analysis CHF 45
Body scan including analysis and advice CHF 150
VO₂max test CHF 250, takes around 60 minutes

Body Scans are already included in the Coaching and Transformation subscriptions; the Transformation subscription also includes three VO₂max tests.

You can choose your sessions freely from the small-group session times on offer and use them within the validity period of your subscription.

Until 31 December 2026, we’ll be training at Riedstrasse. Evening sessions are also available there: Monday at 6.00 pm and 7.00 pm, Tuesday and Wednesday at 7.00 pm, Thursday and Friday at 6.00 pm.

From 2 January 2027, the small group sessions will take place at Papieri – Monday to Friday from morning until midday and on Saturday at 09:00. We will no longer be holding small-group sessions in the evenings, as we use the open-plan area to work on the equipment and it gets too busy there in the evenings to maintain the standard we require.

Full schedule

Until 31 December 2026, everything will continue as usual at Riedstrasse, including in the evenings. From 2 January 2027, small group sessions will take place at Papieri, finishing at midday. The reason: we train on the open-plan area using the equipment, and in the evenings it’s too busy there to maintain the standard we demand.

If evenings are important to you, please get in touch. With the Coaching Subscription, you can train until 10 pm, have your own training plan and enjoy 6 personal training sessions a year.

Our personal training and small-group personal training programmes are Qualicert-certified and recognised by health insurance providers. Depending on your health insurance provider and supplementary cover, part of the costs may be covered – this is decided by your insurer, not by us. Please check with them to find out what your supplementary cover includes, and we will then issue you with the necessary confirmation.

For the Papieri fitness membership, certification will only take effect after the centre opens; it is not possible to carry out the assessment beforehand. We will carry out the assessment and inform all members as soon as it is available.

Yes, training sessions can be rescheduled or cancelled free of charge up to 24 hours in advance. As your training time is reserved exclusively for you and cannot usually be reassigned at short notice, sessions cancelled less than 24 hours in advance will be charged or deducted from your credit balance.

We understand that illness or unforeseen situations can occur. Therefore, each client has 2 short-notice cancellations per calendar year as a gesture of goodwill.

In cases of longer-term illness, a valid medical certificate allows us to pause your subscription accordingly.

Yes, this is possible. You can come to the small group personal training in twos or threes or we also have the possibility to arrange individual appointments in twos or threes. In this case the price for two is 75%, and for three 55% of the regular price. Each person receives an individual plan as in the regular 1:1 trainings. The appointments can then only be used in the previously agreed constellation.

Yes, absolutely. We have already serviced several clubs and sports clubs. For a specific off-season preparation or a company fitness we are well equipped. Feel free to contact us for a quote.

You want to be intensively coached and have the personal training feeling, but want to stay within a more limited budget? Then small group personal training is just right for you. Small group personal training, unlike personal training, is not 1:1 but with other people. The group size is limited to 1-6 people. You will receive a customized workout plan and, as with personal training, a towel and shake is included. The scheduled appointments are booked independently via the app Sportsnow.
