Get Ready
Hydrate
Make sure to drink plenty of H2O before, during and post ride. You can refill your bottle at the studio’s filtered water station or purchase bottled water at the front desk.
Eat
Fuel your body for an energized ride. Have a healthy meal several hours before class or a light snack an hour before.

Be prepared for serious sweat.
Breathable, sweat-wicking athletic wear is best. We suggest leggings or fitted pants, lightweight breathable tops and athletic ankle socks.
The studio bikes are designed to be clipped into with cycle shoes for a safe and efficient ride. The studio provides shoes available for rent or purchase.
