Spin looks intimidating.

We get it.

This event is designed to change that.

Intro to Spin is a one-off class on Saturday 25th April - exclusively for people that have never tried our studio before.

No experience or fitness level required.

It will be 45 minutes to find out what indoor cycling is really like.

This is a one-time event. Spaces are strictly limited and exclusively available to newcomers.

Once it's gone, it's gone.

✅ I'm not fit enough

You don't need to be. You control your own resistance the entire time. Go at whatever pace feels right for you.

✅ I've never been on a spin bike before

Perfect. Raquel will walk everyone through a full bike setup before the class even starts. You won't be left to figure it out alone.

✅ It looks really intense

Some spin studios can look like that. And that’s where we’re different. This class is deliberately relaxed, friendly and beginner-paced from start to finish.

✅ What if I embarrass myself?

Everyone in the room is a newcomer to Format Cycle. There's no one to impress, just a room full of people in exactly the same position as you.

✅ I don't know if it's for me

That's exactly what this class is for. Come and find out with zero commitment and zero pressure. Plus if you enjoy it and want to come again, you’ll get £10 towards a 3 class trial to do afterward.

What’s included…

  • A full bike set up and walkthrough.

  • A short spin class with our head instructor, Raquel, guiding you.

  • £10 credit towards a 3 class trial if you want to keep coming back.

  • A safe, welcoming space where everyone is a beginner

What our members have said…

  • "I have never been a big spinning fan but I am loving the format cycle classes. The relaxed atmosphere is combined with a motivating and tailored approach to make sure everyone feels comfortable, works to their fitness levels and enjoys the classes. I find the colours really motivating and it helps me feel more immersed in the class. Love the music and instructors. In particular, I have enjoyed Natalie’s classes, she’s kind, motivating and her classes are full of energy. Think I’m a convert!"

    Lucy Shiel

  • "A really fantastic experience of Format Cycle- i did a two week trial and loved it! Im new to spinning and didn't know what to expect. I had three different tutors over that time and all were excellent and had their own unique style and great music. Thanks so much!"

    Lucy

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you ever thought you could wonder before starting, plus more.

  • None at all, that's the whole point of this special class! It’s designed specifically for people who have never trained at Format Cycle before. Raquel will walk you through everything from scratch, including how to set up your bike before we even begin.

  • You're always in control of your own resistance on a spin bike, which means you set your own pace throughout the class. Nobody can see your dial, nobody is judging your speed. And Raquel will guide you through what’s relevant to you.

  • Comfortable workout clothes are all you need. Trainers are fine. Bring a water bottle with you and we’ll provide a sweat towel.

  • Totally fine. There's no obligation to come back. But if you do enjoy it, your £10 ticket includes £10 off our 3 class so you can get more of an experience.

  • Absolutely. If it's been a while and you want a proper, supported reintroduction to spin in a no-pressure environment, this class is a great fit.
