  • RIDE TRAINING CLUB – THEORY OF RIDE

    RIDE TRAINING CLUB – Originally designed for the RIDE CYCLE CLUB instructor training program, this off-bike method teaches riders to connect with their core, find the beat, and keep the leading leg. The repetition of movement in this video will allow you to master the basics – like any sport or skill, mastery is found in repetition.

  • RIDE CYCLE CLUB TEMPORARY CLOSURES

    Dear RIDE CYCLE CLUB Community,

    In addition to temporarily closing our Toronto studios, we have also made the difficult decision to temporarily close our Vancouver studios to do our part in keeping our community healthy.

    Starting Tuesday, March 17th, 2020 all RIDE CYCLE CLUB studios will be temporarily closed until further notice.

    We have been diligently adhering to the advice of federal and provincial health agencies and have tried to stay open as long as possible to offer our community and staff a safe environment to build mental and physical strength. However, with much consideration, we have concluded that temporarily closing our studios is the best course of action at this time.

    If you are booked in for an upcoming class, your credit will be returned to your account. All memberships will be frozen for the duration of the closure, and RIDE package expiration dates will be extended.

    As always, we will continue to keep you, our community up-to-date on Instagram + blog as things progress. We will miss you and look forward to seeing you in the studio soon.

    For any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your RIDE studio.

    Sincerely,

    RIDE CYCLE CLUB

    To all of you, my favourite people.

    Someone once told me that there are three things in life that hold us back. FEAR – of not knowing the outcome, SHAME – the thought of looking dumb, and IGNORANCE – the lack of knowledge.

    Every person at some point in their life has allowed one of these three things to hold them back from exploring extraordinary possibilities.

    Years ago, RIDE CYCLE CLUB was an extraordinary possibility that I wished one day to become a reality. As the work started, one song at a time, one RIDE at a time, one studio at a time, I had to push out of my comfort zone and internally keep repeating those 3 words FEAR, SHAME, and IGNORANCE to remind myself I was capable of creating the space I wanted.

    One where anyone could walk through the doors and be completely themselves, where there was a community that helped build one another up through movement and music, and space where people gathered to find 50 min of emotional and physical freedom.

    When we all get to witness the personal growth of our community members, whether it’s in their everyday lives or on the bike, we celebrate. It might be signing up for your first class, hitting all the right moves, or pushing yourself to complete a run; the truth is that your individual growth is celebrated because it affects all of us in that room.

    So, allow yourself to be vulnerable with what you DECLARE. I truly believe that if you set out to create something you believe in; it can be done.

    GRL PWR is real. Thank you for celebrating International Women’s Day with us.

    Yours Truly,

    –A.A.
