Everything starts in September
French life runs on the school year, and la rentrée in September is when it resets. Gyms, sports clubs, music schools and evening classes all recruit then, often at a forum des associations where the local clubs set out tables in a hall for a weekend. Memberships tend to be annual rather than monthly, paid up front and running to June, which makes joining in February unusual and sometimes not possible at all. If you mean to take something up, the calendar has an opinion about when, and the answer is early September.
