What We Offer
Training Sessions
From beginner to pro, you're on the right platform with us. Come join us on Thursdays and Sundays for Skill Classes and Open Training sessions.
A Skill Class is a lesson where the trainer guides you and teaches you various diving skills. There are Skill Classes for beginners, intermediates, and pros. The level of the class is indicated in the title of the Skill Class.
The Open Training sessions are characterized by free diving, where acrobatic athletes challenge each other and learn from one another. A trainer is always present for questions and tips, but you must decide for yourself what you want to work on. These sessions are open to all levels, but some level of independence is required.
Competitions
Show what you're made of during our competitions. We organize events for X-Diving, High Diving, and the Splash Dive contest. Or join our coaches for national and international tournaments.
Trips
Join one of our Cliff Dive vacations or training camps to the most beautiful spots in Europe. Guided by experienced Cliff Divers, so you can focus on your most awesome dive ever.
Private Bookings
Perfect for company outings, children's parties, clinics, bachelor parties, extra school activities, resilience training, anti-acrophobia lessons, water spectacle sports days, or other group events.

Why Indoor Cliff Diving
Always watched in awe those cool guys and girls jumping off cliffs while you're sunbathing on the beach? Don't just lie there, it's easier than you think! Jumping, diving, flipping, or just spinning; you can start at your own level in the tower pool of Sloterparkbad. Find your challenge somewhere between 0 and 10 meters and we'll teach you how to safely dive into the water.
Need more of a challenge? Maybe you are that cool chick or dude who wants to learn a new dive. Then you're on the right platform with us too! Challenge yourself and with the professional guidance of, among others, the Dutch champion on the ten-meter platform, you'll be shining on top of the cliff in your speedo this summer!

Super fun time and lovely people. It’s a very encouraging class. I practice hard and later am surprised by how sore I am the next day. Great workout, great activity, great people. Highly recommend!

Great location! You can join the teacher who was practicing some jumps on the trampoline, but you can also do your own thing and use all the materials in this gym hall! Tip: arrive fifteen minutes earlier.

What is Indoor Cliff Diving?
Indoor Cliff Diving is a sports club in Amsterdam where you learn to jump and dive from heights between 0 and 10 metres in the diving tower pool at Sloterparkbad. The club combines cliff diving, high diving, X-diving and freestyle diving in training sessions for every level, from complete beginner to competitive diver.
Where does Indoor Cliff Diving train?
Training takes place at Optisport Sloterparkbad, President Allendelaan 3, 1064 GW Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The club also runs open training sessions at the Turnz gymnastics hall in Amsterdam, where members practise jumps on trampolines and into the foam pit before taking them to the water.
What are the training times?
At Sloterparkbad the club trains on Thursday from 21.00 to 22.00 and on Sunday from 14.30 to 15.30 (Kids Skill Class) and 15.30 to 17.30. At Turnz there are open training sessions on Tuesday 20.30–22.30, Friday 19.30–21.00 and Sunday 18.00–21.00.
Do I need experience to join?
No experience is required. You start at your own level and jump from whatever height you are comfortable with. During a Skill Class a trainer guides you step by step through new diving skills. Separate Skill Classes run for beginners, intermediates and pros.
What is the difference between a Skill Class and an Open Training?
In a Skill Class a trainer leads the session and teaches specific diving skills; the level is stated in the class title. In an Open Training you jump freely and decide what to work on yourself. A trainer is always present for questions and tips, but some independence is expected.
What does training at Indoor Cliff Diving cost?
A trial lesson costs €15 and a youth ticket €8. A trial package of 5 entries costs €50, a monthly subscription with unlimited access €50, and a season ticket €400. A private trainer during regular training hours costs €60.
Can children join?
Yes. There is a Kids Skill Class every Sunday from 14.30 to 15.30 where children learn to jump and dive under a trainer's supervision. Youth members pay a reduced rate of €8 per entry.
How do I sign up for a training session?
You book your spot online through the booking system at https://indoorcliffdiving.trainin.app/schedule, which shows the live schedule and sells single entries, packages and subscriptions. For questions, email [email protected] or call 06-27 12 62 25.
Can I book the pool privately for a group?
Yes. A private booking gives exclusive access to the entire pool with a trainer, scheduled at your convenience, for €410 per hour. It suits company outings, kids parties, clinics, stag parties and school activities. Book by emailing [email protected].
