The benefits of meeting friends, enjoying music and creating a community and culture around exercise.
The diet industry has done a great deal of harm. Whether it's pitching rapid weight loss (unhealthy) or 'bikini bodies' (also unhealthy and objectifying) one thing remains clear. Dieting is a social phenomenon, and there is zero evidence that ANY diet leads to long term weight loss. Most often dieting leads to weight GAIN in [...]

Several publications have called Revocycle a feminist fitness business. We are not 'overtly' feminist, at least in the superficial way our fitness culture things about it: we aren't yelling 'go girl' in our classes, we definitely don't preach 'namaste bitches' (yes, sadly, that is a real thing in the industry). Here's an article by actual [...]
Revocycle is named for two things: the revolution of the pedals when pedaling, and the cultural revolution of the spinning industry our program represents. When the world is filled with "no experience required, submit head shot for an interview" spinning studios that 'teach' clients to do 'moves' that will destroy their knees, ruin their backs, [...]

We are about tuning in to the beauty of the pure cycling motion in order to get an amazing workout and to calm the mind. If [...]
Good form is the very essence of exercise, whether it's weight lifting, dance, yoga, barre or cycling. That's why Revocycle is leading the nation in bringing back beautiful form, technique and mindfulness to indoor cycling. We recently ran across a blog post from an online workout company called GMB that beautifully captures this essence of [...]
Cycling is a complex movement form that uses many different muscles in the legs, core and the hips, all of which must be synchronized to create a strong, effective and powerful pedal stroke. It's a beautiful thing, and it benefits from good position, concentration and focus not unlike yoga or barre work. That concentration creates [...]
Revocycle is a completely new approach to 'spinning' or indoor cycling. Our style borrows from the calming instructional style of your barre or yoga classes while bringing the same focus on good fit, good form, excellent technique. In fact, we think of ourselves as a yoga approach to cardio exercise! Have you ever noticed that [...]
In your yoga or Barre class....it's quiet, peaceful, even spiritual. Soft music is playing, the calming voice of your highly trained instructor guides you through your practice, gently reminding you to check in with your body, your position, to be safe and comfortable. In a 'spin' class.....super loud, the instructor is a ROCKSTAR!! spotlighted on [...]
