SPINCO Vancouver

Fantastic experience: Spinco never disappoints! This location is right in the middle of the city so it’s perfect for city workers and commuters. It’s right outside the R5 bus stop, and only a couple min walk from Stadium Chinatown Skytrain Station - so it’s extremely convenient. I love that they have a dedicated stretching space downstairs, and appreciate that the two levels minimizes a lot of traffic between classes. Joey is super attentive and friendly, and I really love how kind the front desk staff are.

Fantastic experience: So I took my first spin class last night and it was nothing short of amazing! I've been wanting to take one for a while now and so happy I decided to. The staff welcomed me and instantly made me feel right at home. They're super helpful getting you all clipped in and making sure you're ready to crush the workout. Once the class started, instructor Max kept the energy up and pushed us to the max. His energy was amazing and it made me want to keep testing my limits. I can't wait to come back for another class. My expectations were completely blown away. Incredible experience!

Fantastic experience: It was a great experience. The instructor was very nice and we sweated like no other. The receptionist was so friendly. Loved the lighting and the music. Although the loud music made it hard to hear the instructor at times. But over all, we loved our experience.

Fantastic experience: Weekend classes are very energetic and gives a good boost for the entire day

Fantastic experience: 저는 AleJandra의 수업을 들었어요. 벤쿠버 와서 하루에 1개 또는 2개의 운동 수업을 듣고 있는데 Spinco에서 Ale의 수업은 정말 재미있고 즐거운 시간이었습니다. 완전 강추!!! Thanks Ale!!!

Fantastic experience: I've visited SPINCO in Toronto and I wanted to check out the Vancouver location. There were showers downstairs and cubbies for your belongings. The bikes were fluid and the music was great. I really enjoyed Jet's class and Courtney at front desk was welcoming and friendly. Great experience and would visit again if I was in the area.

Fantastic experience: Want a sweat session? Try a class here, I booked mine with Naypreet, it’s a killer session

Negative experience: The way their cancelation system works sucks. I've been trying to cancel a monthly subscription by email, phone and in person and it haven't been possible so far. After 2 months they are still charging the subscription so my card. Hopefully I get my money back

Fantastic experience: So cleaaaaaan

Positive experience: Disappointed with my experience here so far. New to Vancouver & coming from the SpinCo in Kelowna - which I adored. The instructors & front counter staff have been wonderful, but there are just too many downfalls to the space. 1) The layout of the studio awkwardly crams as many bikes into the space as possible, at the expense of that cool 'moving together' vibe you get at most other spin classes. When the folks in the front bikes (rotated 90 degrees compared to the other bikes, and facing the instructor) are off beat, it really messes with the flow for the rest of the class! 2) You have to change in the bathrooms, which are small & cramped. REALLY miss having a legit changeroom. I expected better... especially at the pricepoint that SpinCo asks for! 3) More than once, I've gotten STINKY shoes & musty towels. It's super off-putting... to the point that I haven't returned, despite having more classes available on my app. I really hope they can tighten this up... because the place has a lot of potential... and again - the instructors are lovely!!!

Fantastic experience: An incredibly welcoming and warm exercise community! I joined Spinco six months ago when my life was filled with personal challenges and I feel lucky because the consistency and community has grounded me. Shout out the the incredible manger Joey who puts his heart and soul into making sure every rider has a great experience and works tirelessly to build connections and partnerships with other businesses. His efforts keep the environment of classes exciting and joyful! Truly a super star and one of the many reasons I keep coming back!

Positive experience: Beautiful studio but their clip ins are different / much looser than any other SPINCO I’ve been to.

Fantastic experience: welcoming staff, great facilities, clean bathrooms and showers. great environment!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience at the studio! So motivating and fun! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Will only get out of bed before 6 am for Joey’s class! One of the best and most positive instructors I’ve ever had. His playlists are fantastic and the studio is beyond welcoming!

Fantastic experience: Attended my first ever spin class here recently! Loved it so much! I felt supported from the moment I walked in! From the front desk to the amazing instructors, they took away my nerves and I had the best first experience! Will be back :)

Fantastic experience: Going to Spinco was a good experience but their recent update to their app doesn’t allow you to select your spot if you book with ClassPass. This is super inconvenient since I usually bring friends and we pick our spots together. This also disables people from being able to refer friends through ClassPass to check out Spinco and enjoy the class seated together. I really like Spin Society and there are no obstacles with picking spots when I book there so I’ll probably just go to the downtown location instead of Spinco. I had called and let them know that having the ability to select spots on the Spinco app with ClassPass is important for my friends and I who have started going every week. I was told this would be discussed with a manager so I’d love an update on this if possible. Booking a spin class prob shouldn’t be this inconvenient and ClassPass users are more likely to be first timers who would be more comfortable in a spot they can choose themselves. What’s the point of an update that does nothing for customers? **edit changing this review based on the response! I was told something different by a staff member on the phone who said the change was permanent.

Positive experience: Overall good experience. Alejandra has upbeat energy and above average arm workouts. Even as an intermediate cycler, it was nice that she went through all the positions. The provided shoes felt a little ratty & the bikes felt a little dated. But nothing bad enough I wouldn’t go back!

Fantastic experience: Edit: I’ve been going to more classes and I’m really happy with the experience. I’m bumping the review from 4 to 5. I asked them to help me with the bike and they were really helpful. If you want to work hard, I recommend Mel’s classes. ————————— First time attending a spin class and SPINCO by extension. Read ahead About the studio: They are located on West Hastings and Cambie. The studio looks great and the staff are nice. They don’t have lockers and you need to put your belongings in the cubbies available in the studio. There’s not really a changing room but they do have a space with showers and washrooms downstairs and you can change your clothes there. Towels are provided downstairs in case you want to shower. About the class: They provide shoes and towels for the class. You just need to wear comfy clothes for workout and bring water. They assign you a bike (remember the number). The bikes aren’t really intuitive and they totally deserve an introduction. I didn’t get any introduction and I had no idea how to clip/unclip the shoes, or how to adjust the seat. I also couldn’t do the stretching at the end of the class because I couldn’t figure out how to unclip the shoes. If it’s your first time, I highly recommend asking them to teach you how to use the bike before the class. It also takes some time to get used to the moves and instructions. The instructor introduces the moves at the start of the class. Pay attention to them because they won’t be repeating how to do them during the class. Overall, I’d say I had a mixed experience. I liked the class and the studio but I wish someone told me how to use the bike. It would be nice if they explain that at the start if the class or specifically show the first timers how to use them.

Fantastic experience: Awesome playlists!

Fantastic experience: I’ve never done a spin class in my life before, I thought the idea of working out on a bike thought it wasn’t for me. I was pleasantly surprised that my assumptions were wrong. The music was really fantastic and the instructor was fun and informative. It’s a great workout that can be as hard as you want it to be. Saying that you’ll be sweating and burning lots of calories every time - the energy is infectious.

Fantastic experience: Spinco Vancouver is a must! From the moment I walk into the welcoming studio to the moment I leave after a class - I feel more energized and refreshed!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely LOVE SpinCo Vancouver! The instructors and staff are excellent - they go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and supported—gorgeous studio and amenities. The classes feel like you're having fun rather than intensely working out! I always leave with a smile on my face. Another benefit is that SpinCo is a nationwide franchise; when I moved from Halifax to Vancouver, I felt like I had found a little piece of home.

Fantastic experience: Riding at SPINCO Vancouver has honestly been one of my best forms of exercise I've grown to appreciate over the past few years! These classes allow yourself to be present in each moment and work hard either riding to the beat or pulsing to the count of a directed movement. The energy of not only the instructors but other group members bring to the forefront continue to help me stay motivated each and every time I ride. What a great community I've been so graciously welcomed into! :)

Fantastic experience: Love the workout and the community♥️

Fantastic experience: I love riding at this studio! Such a vibe, the instructors and staff are great and the classes are such an intense and fun work out! Highly recommend:

Fantastic experience: My Safe Space! Love SPINCO VANCOUVER vibes - great workout, high energy all around fun time!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to spin studios for the last 8 years and Spinco always comes out on top. Spinco Vancouver has changed a lot over the last year and I’m so proud to be a part of its community.

Fantastic experience: SPINCO is more than riding on a stationary bike its all about community! The beats are hard and the room is dark. All ego’s are left at the door! Everyone is super friendly, helpful, and very welcoming. Great place to learn and fine tune your moves, each instructor has their own vibe! Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: This location was amazing! Very beautiful, very welcoming. The instructors were incredible and uplifting. I felt amazing leaving. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Always a fun time on the bikes. Love the manager Joey, he’s a gem always so warm and welcoming. Come ride here if you’re looking to challenge yourself mentally and physically

Positive experience: Classes are okay but they need new spin shoes to give to clients. Was given old ones that really hurt my feet to the point that made me leave the room in the middle of the class.

Fantastic experience: My favourite studio! The team is incredible, the music is always on point and the workout is epic

Fantastic experience: Love spinco! They are super welcoming and helpful if you are new. The instructors will challenge you every ride but you will be surprised what your body can do.

Fantastic experience: I love working out at Spinco Vancouver! Always great vibes, fun music and the nicest instructors :)

Fantastic experience: Love this Spin Studio! They have amazing instructors and everyone instructor has their own style. Everyone is so positive and encouraging. Love how they give you alternatives if you cant follow along etc. Soo many instructors to choose from as I cant say I have a favourite, they are all amazing!

Fantastic experience: i did a Tuesday class with the spin instructor Emma and it was amazing! it was my first time trying spin and i felt so welcome, plus the energy she brought to the class truly made the experience. Halfway through the workout, i already knew i'd be coming back weekly :)

Fantastic experience: Love it!

Fantastic experience: I love this studio so much. I started coming in September and I’ve been hooked ever since - spin is an amazing workout for both physical and mental health, and it’s totally badass. All of the staff that I’ve met at Spinco are super lovely and friendly, and they have amazing instructors who are super supportive and totally happy to give you tips and help you progress. Highly recommend.

Positive experience: Awesome workout! I’d say don’t be too hard on yourself if you can’t keep up to the instructor the whole class - I find SpinCo is less achievable than other studios BUT also pushes your harder.

Fantastic experience: I had a really great experience here, it was my first time at a spin class so I definitely got a good workout in. It's not as intimidating as I thought it would be, everyone was friendly and helped me out. They were clear with instructions and helped me whenever I needed it. Being a part of the queer community, I had to ask about the previous negative reviews, and I was happy with the response from the manager, Sarah. It was said that they learned from the past experience, and are working with Spinco as a whole company to rectify the situation, to learn and grow from it so it doesn't happen again. Please remember that every single business needs to go through this change to become more inclusive, in fact, some major companies haven't even made it there yet. Sarah said they are working their way there, I am happy to hear that it was owned, they see their wrongs, and are working to do better. That part of Hastings is not scary or rough, there are homeless folks and crime everywhere. I wouldn't let that deter you from trying it out. Also, the entrance was locked while we were in class and someone is always at the front regardless. They gave clear instructions before class with what you needed, it is a party, I had a great time. Will forsure be coming back and would recommend to others.

Positive experience: I have been a die hard Spin Society and Soul Cycle fan for many years and finally decided to try out SpinCo for a change. My first experience was slightly disappointing and I’m providing an honest review for others to be prepared. Location is borderline east hastings (my mistake for not checking this prior), but for some reason there were no lockers? I did not feel comfortable leaving my personal belongings in an ikea cubby in this neighborhood. Front desk were friendly enough but did not provide much instruction including the fact that there was bike assignments. For some reason we need to select our weights from some crates in a corner and bring them inside with us to our bike. Obviously, some members missed this and instructor had to swing doors open and exit spin room during class to retrieve these for them. I didn’t bother venturing downstairs to acess the bathrooms but they already seem inconvenient. Waiting area has limited seating and is awkward for putting shoes on when there’s a full house. However, the one thing I must note is that the Instructor, Emma N, was fantastic!!!

Fantastic experience: I'm new to spin. I'm normally a runner and wanted to try something new for exercise. I've been there twice now and my first class was with Emma. She was great, friendly with high energy. Would definitely repeat a class with her. My next one was with Lindsay. Another great instructor. I love the workout spin gives me and all the staff at Spinco are friendly and welcoming.
