Class schedule

This is the regular weekly timetable. It is the academy's published statement of the week — the live schedule further down is the same week as Gymdesk holds it, and it is where you book and where a change to a single week shows up first. If the two ever disagree, the live schedule is right and this table needs fixing.

(the timetable Gymdesk is running, as of September 2026 — class names are Gymdesk’s own)

Free trial classes run on Mondays at 08:00 and at 18:00 — the live schedule shows which Mondays are running. All adult classes are taught in English. Classes are in gi, except the No-Gi classes on Monday, Friday and Saturday.

Book a class

The live schedule below comes straight from Gymdesk. It shows this week exactly as it is running — including the Mondays the free trial is on, and Saturday's programme — and you can book directly from it.

Three things worth knowing before you look

Monday morning and Monday at 18:00 belong to people arriving for the first time. Both of those Beginners & Intermediates classes are a free first class, once per person, and neither takes a paid drop-in. Those two hours are kept for whoever is walking in for the first time. Monday's 19:00 No-Gi is a different class, and visitors can book it at €25.

The fifteen minutes after the trial class belong to whoever came for the first time. That is time to ask everything you want to ask, and nobody is waiting on you to finish.

Saturday is two classes, Gi and No-Gi. Gi at 16:00, No-Gi at 17:15. The instructor changes — Saturday is taught across the coaching team. Before 16:00 the mat belongs to the Kids Program.

Sunday is a Women's Only Open Mat, 17:00–19:00. It is for women who are members of the academy — not a drop-in, not a trial class. Friday's No-Gi is for members too.

Which class is for you?

Never trained before? A Monday at 08:00 or 18:00 is your free trial — no experience, no gi, no cost, and a gi is lent to you. The schedule offers the Mondays that are running. Women can also start with a free first class in Friday's Women's Only Class at 18:00.

Visiting Amsterdam? Drop in for €25 on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday evening, or Wednesday or Friday morning. Monday's 19:00 No-Gi and Wednesday's 19:00 Open Mat / Specific Training take drop-ins too. At blue belt or above you can also take the Tuesday or Thursday Advanced class. Unsure whether your grade travels? A WhatsApp to +31 6 81911917 gets an honest answer.

Bringing a child? Kids classes run Wednesday afternoons and on Saturday mornings, through the independent Kids Program of Professor Laszlo — enrolment, times and details are on their site.

Before your first visit

Arrive 15–20 minutes before class. An instructor personally welcomes every first-time visitor: they explain how the academy works, answer questions, help you get ready and introduce you to the class. Once training starts the instructor is on the mat and cannot step off — so if you arrive after class has started, you will not be able to join that session. Come early.

Directions, parking and what is inside: plan your visit.
