INDOOR CYCLING

At Thrive, we offer both Classic and Beat-Based Indoor Cycling class types.

Classic Cycle sessions are taught with music in the background as an element to enhance and encourage the mood of the class. Instructors implement their own varying methods to direct participants to maintain pace and cadence in a more free-style way.

Beat-Based Cycle sessions are taught with music as a building block for class design. In these sessions, instructors use the beat of the music as the guiding parameter to maintain RPMs, combined with a standard resistance scale that is based on descriptive terms. Changes or ‘events’ in the music are used as markers to direct participants through different exercises and variations in body positions on the bike.

All of the classes below are offered in both types, depending on the instructor.
