It turns out they don't take credit cards and I had no cash on me. They very graciously told me to just go ahead and use the facilities and come back to pay at a later time. I couldn't believe how accommodating they were! The facility's common area is super clean, relaxing an spacious. They have plenty of seating, perfect for a get together drink and snack after a good workout on the walls. The instructor was very, very friendly and funny. He was very knowledgable and we didn't have to wait at all for him to check our newbie knots and belay devices before we excitingly went up the wall. He was constantly walking around making sure each group of three was taken care of. He was definitely a patient instructor! Also, since our group was mostly expats, the taster class they offered that day was in English. I'm impressed! Awesome experience overall :)))

Before going to my first class at Rocycle, I had a conversation with the friend I was staying with…read more-- a German woman who'd been living in Amsterdam for awhile. I told her it would probably be a lot like SoulCycle. She was like, "What's SoulCycle?" This explains a lot. Rocycle reiterates SoulCycle's playbook in a way that will be surprising to Americans; SoulCycle of course has _many_ similar competitors in the States, but because it (SoulCycle) is so famous and defining the competitors try to have their cake & eat it, too: they want to trade on the success/phenomenon that SoulCycle is still most-associated with starting, of this particular approach to spin classes, while also _clearly differentiating_ themselves in some way. Rocycle doesn't have that problem. It's just SoulCycle. The lights. The yoga vibe. The scripts of self-empowerment and self-ownership that the teachers throw out there; the pacing and structure of the workouts, focused very much on pedaling to the beat and then breaking down for different pace sections, then the arm section, etc. The thing is: I liked it more than SoulCycle. I think it's a little better at it. The teachers I had were particularly good; the vibe was particularly good; the facilities were excellent. I mean so basically look tl;dr -- if you're in Amsterdam and looking for a spin class and you like SoulCycle you might LOVE Rocycle. Enjoy!

I came here while visiting Amsterdam from LA, where there are are plethora of spin classes. Rocycle…read moreis easily one of my favorite spin classes I have ever taken! The studio is immaculate, they provide shoes, towels, and have showers. It's very modern and clean, and they have a juice bar in the studio. The instructor I took was Hern, and he was amazing! The music was lively, fun, and the entire workout was engaging. It's a lot of core and upper body while cycling, similar to Soul Cycle. It is all rhythm riding as well, which i love. They have an online deal for first time visitors, which is 8 euro for one class or 18 for three classes. If I lived here, I'd definitely spin here. The classes were crowded as well, so make sure to book in advance. If I'm ever back in Amsterdam, I'll be back!

Big place, lots of cardio with decent amount weight training equipment in there as well…read more As with the chain, it is not expensive. There is a monthly contract possibly now, so you don't have to unwillingly get in to one year lock-in. Parking is free and there is ample parking space available. Mornings after 09:00 mostly occupied by seniors. Gets somewhat quiet around noon & early afternoon. Evenings are kind of busy mostly. After 20:30, starts to get kind of free again. But you can always manage to find your space, may be you might have to wait couple of minutes when it is really busy but that is not always. There also a number of group classes / sessions going on, haven't tried them yet, Gym floor and equipment are sufficiently neat and clean. There are some old looking cardio equipment, they could be swapped for shiny new ones. Lot of lockers are available but you should bring your own lock or purchase one at the reception for a small fee. Changing room is big enough. There are couple of toilets and showers and a small dry sauna. Toilets are neat..most of the time. No idea on shower rooms. Shower costs 50 cents. Haven't been inside the dry sauna, looks really small but fine from outside. Perfect for beginners and occasional gym training. There are also the muscle marys who appear regularly. So really for everybody.
