What is Ride?
Ride is our music-driven indoor cycling programme — high-energy, rhythm-based sessions on performance bikes in a darkened studio. Class is paced to the beat. Coaches lead from the front bike, calling intervals, climbs, sprints, and upper-body segments timed to the track. The room is loud, the lights move, and the work is real. You leave drenched.
What to expect
- A 45-minute ride that moves through warm-up, four to six music-paced intervals, and a cooldown.
- Performance bikes with adjustable resistance — you set the load with the coach's callouts.
- A purpose-built room: dark, immersive, with a sound system tuned for the space.
- Optional upper-body segments using light weights, integrated into the ride for full-body work.
- Real-time coaching — form callouts, motivation, occasional individual check-ins between songs.
Who it’s for
Ride is for anyone who wants a high-intensity cardio session that doesn't feel like cardio. The music carries the work. First-timers welcome — coaches walk new riders through bike setup before class, and the resistance is yours to adjust. Cyclists looking for off-the-road conditioning, runners cross-training, anyone who needs a low-impact full-body sweat — Ride covers all of it.
What to bring
- Workout clothes — moisture-wicking helps; the room runs warm.
- Cycling shoes if you have them. We provide SPD-compatible shoes for members in the rack just outside the Ride studio — free to use, sized through the standard range.
- A water bottle. Refill at the 1st-floor station before you clip in.
- No need to bring a towel — we set one on each bike before class starts.
A typical session
A typical Ride opens with a 5-minute warm-up at light resistance to get the legs moving. From there, the coach builds through climbs (heavy resistance, slower cadence), sprints (light resistance, fast cadence), and seated/standing intervals — each phase scored to a track. Around the midpoint, a 4-minute upper-body block with light weights breaks up the legs. Then back to the bike for a final push, usually a "race" sequence where everyone goes all-in. Cooldown stretches on the bike to close. Total: 45 minutes, 400-700 calories, depending on output.
Ride FAQ
- I've never been on a stationary bike. Will I be okay?
- Yes. Show up 10 minutes early — the front desk will help you set up the bike (saddle height, handlebar reach, shoe clip-in if needed). The class is rhythm-based, so just match the coach's cadence. You set your own resistance. Easy first ride, harder by ride three.
- Do I need to know how to clip in?
- No. We provide SPD-compatible cycling shoes for members in the rack just outside the Ride studio — free to grab on your way in. The clip-in motion takes about ten seconds to learn; coaches walk you through it before class starts. Most members buy their own shoes once they're hooked.
- How is Ride different from a SoulCycle or Equinox cycling class?
- Format is similar — music-paced, coach-led, dark studio, intervals and climbs. The differences are local: smaller class sizes, coaches who know your name, and programming sequenced across the week so consecutive rides build on each other rather than recycling formats.
- Will Ride get me cycling-fit for outdoor riding?
- It builds strong cardio and leg conditioning that transfers, but Ride alone won't replace road time — outdoor cycling has bike-handling, position, and aerobic-base demands you only get on the road. Pair Ride with weekly outdoor rides for the complete package.
