Membership
Membership is by application. We do not run trials, we do not discount, and we do not take a member on when the roll is full — the line below is a count, not an offer.
The number above is the only thing on this site that asks anything of you. It is checked against the roll on the first working day of each month and is never rounded up.
€249per month
The ordinary membership and the one nearly everybody holds.
€2.900per year
Twenty-four of these were issued in 2016. Places are released only when one is given up.
€60per day
For a member's guest, or for someone whose application is being considered.
All prices include 19% VAT. There is no joining fee and no minimum term beyond the notice period stated above.
One
The form below, or a letter, or a telephone call. Three or four sentences about how you train now is more useful than a curriculum vitae.
Two
Either there is a place or there is not, and we say which plainly. If there is not, your name goes on the roll list in the order it arrived and stays there.
Three
Half an hour on the floor at a quiet time, with a coach, at no charge. Bring training clothes if you want to use the hour; most people do.
Four
Memberships start on the first of a month so that the roll is counted once. You are given a key card, a locker and the name of the coach who will review your programme.
Applications are not refused when there is no place; they are held in order of arrival. The list has run between four and fourteen months since 2018. We write to everybody on it in January and July whether or not anything has changed.
This form goes to the club office and nowhere else. There is no automated reply, no newsletter and no follow-up sequence — a person reads it and writes back.
No. There is a guest day at €60, arranged by telephone, and it is deducted from your first month if a membership follows. We do not give the floor away because it changes who ends up on it.
Because a membership here is a place that somebody else does not have, and that is not a transaction to complete in ninety seconds. Every application is read by a person.
Yes, twice in any twelve months, for a month at a time, for injury, travel or work. The place is held and not counted against the roll while it is frozen.
No. Everything coached here is one to one. Two people occasionally train together by arrangement; that is as close as it gets.
No. The courtyard takes bicycles. Hauptbahnhof is six minutes on foot and Sendlinger Tor four.
It stays on the roll list until you ask us to remove it, or for two years, whichever comes first. We do not share it, and there is no newsletter to be added to.
