I love the community and the amazing instructors.

I love Anchorage Cycle! It keeps me coming back. These classes allow me to have consistency while also having some fun getting solid cardio in! The motivators push you to give it your absolute all and encourage you to keep coming back to improve. I have been and will continue to be a fan for quite some time.

Ivy Schultz

So fun! And a really really great cardio workout in a warm environment.

Edward Johnson

Simply amazing

Jennifer Rackliff

I like the attention to detail and effort that is made to create a fantastic experience. The online interface to register for classes and buy classes and memberships is easy to use. Upon walking in the door the environment is clean and is decorated in a simple, functional, modern/contemporary manner that works well with the energy. The staff and motivators are all super friendly, helpful, patient, and have great energy. The facilities are well kept and maintained and very clean. The lockers are very convenient, easy to use, and secure. the changing rooms/shower area is beautiful, clean, and well appointed. The studio itself is set up nicely. The bikes seem well maintained and are easy to use. I LOVE the low lighting and candles. The music volume is kept at a good level too. I could easily hear the instructors even with the music. I like the upper body portion with the weights, as it seems to help round out the work out. I understand that others have mentioned that it gets too hot in the room - but I, for one, appreciate the temperature. Coming from your hot yoga classes I feel that the heat helps my muscles work safely, and helps me recover and bounce back after the class.

Excellent customer service and front desk staff, awesome classes and instructors. I love that they go above and beyond to make newcomers feel welcome and get them oriented to the bikes.

Best indoor cycle and motivators in town.

Joe Pokupec

The instructor, Beth, truly enjoyed leading the group with passion and energy. She smiled a lot, even while working at intense levels. This kind of enthusiasm is infectious and the group can’t help but respond positively to her genuine energy. Front desk was super friendly as well. They took the time to make me feel welcome as a first-timer even though there was a lot of attention required by many patrons. Good job all the way around!

Richard Sorge

Always a good workout. Love the energy! Erica always brings the love and is my favorite instuctor!!

Sonja Stafford

Such a fun experience, KILLER routines! Everyone is so nice that works there too! I highly recommend if you love spin.

Leah Levinton

Love everything about this studio. It's been my home for the last 7 years and I can't wait for another decade of connection, openness, and community.

Everybody comes out smiling at this wonderful locally owned studio!

Mari Reeves

Great facilities, instructors, stuff (gum, shampoo, emergen-C, etc)... overall, a great experience for bikram and aerial yoga. Can't wait to try spin!

Morgan Royal

It was my first time cycling: The lady at the front desk was incredibly helpful! - explined the process, gave a tour, provided gear, found the instructor to help get me set up, all with with a very polite and excited demeanor. The instructor (David Westlake) was extremely helpful in explaining everything so I can set myself up next time, energetic, motivating, & full of positive light. The class was really fun! I liked that is was quite literally a dance party party on a bike! The facilities are cleanly and easy to navigate. The other guests are nice and happy to see new faces.

Michael Gallagher

What do I like?! How about love?! My wife and I absolutely love Anchorage Cycle! We talk about it all the time with our co-workers, friends, and family... to the point that it probably annoys them. I recently told a friend at work and even bought her two classes to help her get started. I hope she takes to it like we have and that you have a new member! We feel so connected to the Anchorage Cycle community that we want to help ensure its success! It is completely selfish... we need you guys to stick around so we can enjoy everything you have to offer!

Krystal Barrett

Pros: *top notch studios, I mean the best! They do not skip on details *welcoming people and atmosphere @ both studios. Cons: *pricey *impossible to book spin classes because they are booked a week out within a couple hours of coming available All around it’s the best in town but the cycle studio needs another room for more openings, more like the yoga studio

Stephanie Phillips

A group of positive people who are always helpful and friendly. Even when I am between membership subscriptions everyone treats me like a member and makes lasting personal impressions. I like when I go to a place and people act happy to see me... it makes all the difference. Also the facility is always clean and inviting. Positive vibes all the way!

Chrissi Thurman

The front desk staff are very nice and helpful, and the motivators are great! I was very nervous to try spinning, but the people at AYC have made it so welcoming and relaxed for this newbie! So happy I joined.

Blake Yuckert

Great cycling class with M. Schmidt. I discovered two songs from his playlist that I really like, too.

Derek Lund

Why are the fans in low speed? This is a highly aerobic class with fans barely on. Do you think we are getting a better workout when we can’t breathe ? When the stench in the room is noticeable because room is not very cool and even sometimes warm. Really? I hope you have more considerion for the masses who are always complaining about how warm the room is when we are trying to cycle our hearts out. Please be more considerate.

Rachel Eakes

IT'S A PARTY ON A BIKE!! Love, love, love the energy that fills this cycle studio - from the always smiling front desk staff & Motivators, to the community that fills the space - it's an inspiring and fun atmosphere. The facilities are always clean and the assortment of goodies is always delightful, earplugs, razors, gum, you name it. There's a class package and/or membership for everyone, whether you're a yogi who likes to cycle, or a cyclist who is looking to spice up your ride. If you're looking for some fun, this is the studio to visit.

Alexa Morales

Amazing

The professionalism of the studio is evident in the staff, instructors, and equipment. This shows a high level of care by management. The classes are upbeat and very engaging. The studio caters toward the top 10%. If you don’t compare yourself to the other participants, it will be a lot of fun regardless of your fitness level!

Holly

Great cycle studio - the staff was great, instructor was fun and motivating and I loved the energy. I'll definitely go back!

Vrrroooommmmmmm Fun

D. Douglas Johnson

Wonderful product offered. Makes being fit fun!

Stephen Lauper

Having never taken a spin class before in combination with not being a lover of large workout groups, I was quite nervous and was not really sure what to expect. Jen and the entire team were very awesome in making sure everything was nice and ready for me prior to class. Once class started, I was definitely out of my element. Jen was awesome with her vocal cues and also with great words of encouragement, motivation, and some deeper guidance. The workout was also great and MAN WERE MY LEGS HOWLING! I am looking forward to expanding my normal weekly workout routine to include more spin classes and will be 100% sure to seek much more guidance from Jen’s classes!

Sara Tall

So welcoming to new cyclists!

Haley Marie

It’s a party and a workout at the same time! Never had a class this fun anywhere else. High fives, fist pumps, and shouts of joy! That’s how I like to party! Been hooked since day 1.

Amanda Beery

I go to Anchorage Cycle to achieve strength of body and strength of mind. There is a community of love and support here. I always leave feeling better than I felt when I walked in!

April Hamels

I appreciate the front desk staff and how accommodating they are to members. They are friendly and welcoming. The motivators are all very good at what they do. Everything is pretty easy at AYC. If you can just arrive -- the rest is easy!!!

Anya Kubilus

I went to Anchorage cycle while on vacation (lol I know). I had a few hours to kill before my boyfriend's flight landed, and I decided to give it a whirl. I am an active cycler (about 2-3 classes a week) and I was super interested in going to another studio. I chose to go to the Power Ride class because it sounded super interesting and I thought I'd give it a whirl. Everyone was very friendly and helped me through the check in process which is different from my local studio in Wisconsin. The class was very good, but the instructor kept getting off his bike and walking around. At one point, he lit candles and set them around the studio. I'm not sure if this is typical of this studio, but I have never been to a class where the instructor stops pedaling along with the class--it was a little distracting. The class was great overall and a different challenge than I'm used to! I am a little disappointed AC doesn't have an online store because I really want a "Clip In Rock Out" shirt and I contacted them to purchase one and they said they don't have a system in place for that. I wanted to buy one after the class, but the staff were not behind the counter when the class was over (probably cleaning the studio) and I didn't see any shirts on display for purchase when I left. I definitely recommend this studio for a great cardio workout and an awesome challenge for your mind and body!

Sarah Townsend

I have been going to AYC for 3 months and I love it!! The motivators are great and the front desk staff is wonderful as well!

Colleen McAllister

Jen was my first spin instructor at this facility - moving my membership from Summit Alaska Club ASAP! Such a motivating spin class. Clearly AYC takes their spin classes very seriously! Thanks!

Friendly and helpful staff members

Brian Schroeder

Great Place nice people

Rachel Kittoe

Love this place—try a class with Craig hinkle—he’s so inspiring—talk about a healer! He knows how to take care of people’s bodies, minds, and spirits.

Jo Marie Sila

Love it here! Such a good "pick me up" workout! The vibes are great and the staff is amazing! Penny is the best instructor!

Julia Duff

The staff is friendly and professional. I always feel welcome when I walk in the door. The motivators are a good mix of encouragement and hustle.

R K Nibbe

Clean facility, helpful staff, friendly "motivators", challenging classes - overall a good place to go for a 45 minute sweat.

Victoria Morris

This place is awesome. I was visiting from New York and needed a place to exercise. Great place, everyone was nice and helpful!

Berni Simmons

Tried Aerial Yoga for the first time, I was a bit hesitant hanging using the soft fabric hammock, but the instructor was extremely patient and helpful that eventually I got the hang of it. Dre is an awesome instructor and I just love the way she teaches the newbies - surely will start coming back as soon as semester ends, wish people take advantage of this so they can add more classes to include weekends! Great job and thank you for your patience! I loved Aerial Yoga!!!

Wella Marie

I appreciate how helpful and friendly the front staff is. This was my first cycle class in almost 10 years and the front staff took extra time to explain the class to me as well as help me connect with my instructor so I could get properly "fitted" for my bike. I had a wonderful experience and thoroughly enjoyed class. I have already signed up for my next spin-class and cannot wait to return!
