"The most important Indoor Cycling class you'll ever take... will be the next one!"
I've forgotten which Instructor I overheard saying this to a new participant, but it's completely true. We want new students returning to our classes every week. It's good for us (fuller classes) and obviously good for them 🙂

So Insightful and helpful. One question Gene…Do you have a separate initial class covering just proper bike fit, set up and form?
