More gymnastics classes would be great! The ones at Gøglerskolen are always so busy and having one at Spartan Mentality would be awesome. Also, it is great to have some classes specifically in English... See more

Written by the company

Arca er Danmarks største udbyder af holdtræning af meget høj kvalitet. Vores tilgang til træning er unik og vi tror på, at du bliver bedre, sundere og stærkere af at træne med os. Arca betyder box på latin. En box er meget mere end et træningscenter og her er vi fælles om at træne. Fælles om at udfordre kroppen, lege, løbe og svede. Vi er ikke et fitnesscenter. Her er ingen spejle, ingen instruktør med mikrofon og ingen, er overladt til sig selv. Arca startede vi, da vi drømte om bedre og sjovere træning end hvad du kan finde i de gængse fitnesscentre – og fordi det ikke passede ind i deres verden. Vi ville bevæge os, uden at blive begrænset af æstetik, maskiner og monotone workouts. Derfor er dét, vi laver hos Arca ikke noget, du finder andre steder. I dag dukker tusindvis af medlemmer op hver dag op og træner, og selvom vi nu er at finde i alle de større danske byer, er det stadig din lokale box, du træner hos. Vi tilbyder ubegrænset træningsmuligheder i alle boxe og du bliver altid taget godt imod, uanset hvilken box, du træder ind i. Hver eneste box omfavner det helt særlige træningsfællesskab, hvor du kender din træner og hilser på ham og hende, du træner side om side med. Kom ned og træn med os i en af vores 20 boxe i Danmark.

Arca - Sundere. Stærkere. Sammen

Written by the company

Hos Arca er vi fælles om træningen. Dig og din træner – og resten af holdet. Sammen knokler vi for at blive sundere og stærkere. Vi bruger vores krop til dét, den er skabt til, udfordrer den og lærer nye færdigheder.
Træning hos os er sjov og effektiv træning. Vi træner funktionelt og intelligent, så vi både styrker kroppen nu og på lang sigt. Vi bruger alt fra sjippetov til kettlebells og tilrettelægger træningen så alle kan være med.

fantastic service :)

I had an injury that meant I needed to cancel my subscription for a few months. Patrick looked after my case with excellent customer care, with great sympathy for my injury and making sure I didn't lose any money. Definitely plan on coming back! And thank you Patrick :)

Payment issues - high costs -scM

I agree with some of the previous comments, facilities are not the best but it seems like there is an intention to improve. Some of the trainers are better than others, so try some out and remember the names of the good once 😊

There is an issue with their paying system. Watch out when you need to change your credit card information. it's now for the third months that I get reminded of failed payment and even though I had updated my payment details already previously and during the two times you have already reminded me via email that payment failed .. and everytime the admin costs on top Why???and now I get a letter from Collectia with an even higher invoice Why??!

Honestly, choose another gym! It's an expensive experience for what it is.

Arca would like free money from you

I suspended my membership during the pademic. I did not close it, thinking I might go back. Now I receive a letter from mitcollectia that I own Arca almost 1000 dkk? For what? What service did you provide that you want me to pay for?
Of course, I will make a complaint to all consumer protection services available in DK. And promise to leave a bad review everywhere on the internet.

Facilities and Safety

The cleanliness of the gyms could be improved, and there seem to be some issues with the air conditioning not functioning optimally. On a different note, Arca has historically been a dependable place where lost items could be easily found. However, this doesn't appear to hold true anymore. Regrettably, I've had a recent experience of misplacing my wedding ring within one of the classes. While I'm quite certain of where I placed it, I'm left with the impression that it may have been taken rather than lost. If there were a viable alternative CrossFit gym, I would be inclined to switch from Arca. Unfortunately, the options in Copenhagen are rather limited in this regard.

Hello :-)

We appreciate you taking the time to give us some constructive feeback, thank you for that!

As we are already working on improving the cleaning-standard, we will take a look at the airconditioning as well :-) it would be great if you could share with our costumer service, where exactly this issue is.

I can understand that you have been in touch with our costumer service already in terms of finding your lost ring, we have recieved both pictures and describtion of the ring from you and have done our very best to look for it, but unfortunately this wasn't possible.

We really hope that you are going to keep traning with us at Arca :-)

Amazing coaches and good customer support

I have been training at Arca for 4 months approximately, and my experience has been really good :)
The coaches are very helpful and sweet, and even though it can be a bit scary to be a beginner in the crossfit world, there is room for everybody at Arca. They really help you get started and they correct you as much as needed :D
There is always a nice atmosphere and a good mood.
If there are any issues with the check in or the app, the customer support is fast and supportive, too.

After finishing my membership your are unpleasently surpised that you must pay for two extra months. Arca loves money so much that you have to pay for something you are not even getting from them. Clickbait ad to get started and you're hooked overpaying.

Hi Martin,

Thank you for your feedback.

It is correct that we have current month + 1 month in notice when you sign out. (almost as everyone else). You are of course very welcome to use all facilities in this time.
Hope you have been happy training with us.

Small box at the post office location with plenty to do. Have to sign up early to participate in any classes as there are a lot of members and due to the size, they can only instruct so many students. Classes are ran pretty much all day so more space would be the next option.

Hi Walter,

Thank you for the 4 stars!

We know that we are quite busy at the moment and we hope to expand the class schedule after the summer. Hopefully we can make it even better for you and make it easier to book a class in due time!

Have a great day!

Best regards

Really great gym

Really great gym, but the classes (at least at Kirken) tend to be a bit too large for the room, especially if anything involves kipping or pullups. It is also very hard to get into the early AM classes, so it would be nice if being on the waitlist didn't count toward the maximum amount of reservations.

Hello Sae

We will of course investigate your constructive criticis.

We are aware that our classes in the month of February were very attractive and over-booked. However out waitinglists are back to normal again and you can easily book classes per usual ;-)

Have a great day!

I think it is strange to have a fee if you don't show up I mean what if something comes up then you have to pay extra money

Hello Fjola, thanks for your review!

These terms are also listed in our membership terms, which you will be asked to accept once signing up as a new member :-) we have these fees in order not to have unnecessary waitinglist to our classes.
A class can be cancelled 2 hours before it takes place, so this should give you enough time.

I hope you are enjoying your membership :-)

Not baby friendly

I bought the membership to use Arca MOMS and Baby WOD trainings. Unfortunately, the facilities and trainings are not baby-friendly - lots of dust and dirt on the floor, the music is way too loud for the little ears.

Fine trainers and program, but won't recommend the membership for mom and baby activities.

Mass- trainings, lack of quality

Since May 2022 until October 2022, I was a member of Arca. From the beginning the experience was somewhat questionable due to several reasons: lack of individual trainer feedback during group classes, overcrowded training facilities and lack of focus on possible injures for unexperienced participants. Arca put a lot of focus on mass-training and less focus on quality of the training for individuals. An unexperienced individual has a high risk for long-term injuries as all trainings are not really focused on techniques, but rather on speed and quantity of people coming to classes. Mass- training principal is not good. money-making and lack of trainers- drives the overall quality down.

Hi there

We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your time at Arca!

It is difficult to create a program that is adapted to all individuals. We always take members injuries into account and and do everything we can to customize the program for these members.

It is completely fair that you do not want to train with us, if training in classes is not for you. However, this is a big part of our concept :-)

Have a great day,
Team Arca
