Pedal Spin Studio

Wow I love this place! I started pedal spin back in August and I was really nervous to attend a studio like this because I wasn’t a big fan of working out and I also really didn’t know what to expect. After my first class I was hooked! All of the instructors are so incredibly friendly and everyone attending is super nice as well. It’s such a casual atmosphere and there are so many people of all different shapes and sizes that you don’t feel intimidated at all. It is now February and I am still going strong. It can be a little pricey, but in my opinion it’s worth every penny! I won’t ever stop going to Pedal Spin in Claremont!

So happy to have found this place. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. While I am not too happy about the parking situation it is not a big deal. Love the music and all the instructors. What are you waiting for? Come join the fun!

As a person that cringes at the thought of working out her core, I never thought I would say this but I love Pilates! Pedal Pilates to be exact! I found myself in a physical slump and as a naturally tiny person didn’t want to work out to lose anything but more so to gain strength. After a recommendation from a friend I decided to give pilates a try and wound up purchasing the groupon for 10 classes. Why 10 classes right away before trying it out? Well I didn’t want to lose motivation and the best motivation for me is to not waste my money! Only thing is I had to finish all 10 classes within 30 days, challenge accepted. After completing all 10 classes with various instructors, I can genuinely say I was never once bored in a single class. The class size varies depending on how many people sign up. One time there was a class were we only had 3 people. The small groups were the ones where things really got heated, but all for the best. Each instructor has different workout routines and sometimes you use props along with your workout. I have to say this was a big challenge for me but I definitely enjoyed and noticed my body getting firmer and feeling a little stronger. If you are debating about trying or joining Pedal studios for pilates, I would say go for it! It’s honestly worth it. I already bought 10 more classes (this time directly through the studio). The staffs friendly and if you forget your gripped socks, you can purchase a pair there. They try to make the experience as pleasant and enjoyable as possible.

If you’re looking to have fun while working out, this is your place to do exactly that! The studio is SO clean, well organized, and has a wonderful staff. The hour that you are in there spinning flies by. The music selection is great, and so are all the instructors. But the music is by far my favorite. They have a ton of classes to select from. The only downside to this studio is the parking. If you’re going to a 6:30am class the parking is great. Sometimes I go after work at 5:30pm and I can’t find parking. The area/​location is really nice & classy. Yes, it’s a bit on the expensive side but if you are paying for the classes/​membership you’re def going to use them and not regret it because you’ll see results and you’ll be having fun doing it! I would def recommend this studio to everyone I know!
PS– start with a groupon! ;)

Waited a few weeks to post to get a feel for this place, it is so much FUN I look forward to these classes in my day I found my favorite days Monday nights amazing I work at a club and the music is on point as well as a full body work out!. Wed 530 all about your back side and sat first class of the morning love the mixture of music oldies and modern day music. Great instructors! And front desk staff the girls are really nice

The membership is very expensive, but now that I’ve been a member for almost two months, I kinda understand why. The gym is extremely clean and well-​organized. Every staff member, including the instructors have been professional, kind and helpful. The staff’s response time to calling me back has been on point and they are always nice … like ALWAYS. They supply towels, earplugs, and even hair rubber bands! The phone app is so convenient for booking classes!
My favorite instructors are Sydel and Hydee. These instructors leave their egos at the door when they teach. Their priority are the students and they consistently promote safety and fun. I don’t prefer retail music so it was tough for me to acclimate to most of the playlists used here. Sydel and Hydee definitely provide a diverse selection of tunes. They have mastered coordinating the time changes of the songs to the pace of their instructions.
The location is great. It’s across the street from Laemmle, coffee, pies, comic books and more! But because of this parking gets tricky, so leave extra time before class to search for a parking space, especially for classes after 4pm.

Beware of a new policy where instructors have been pressured by management to make you to buy their branded Toesox, with grips at the bottom. Your own toe socks will not be good enough, and they will charge you $ 17 for them or force you out of the class. I just don’t think this is good business practice, to rip people off for a pair of socks you can get elsewhere for much cheaper, especially when there are people who can only afford to take the classes when Pedal offers flash passes. I’ve never had any complaints about the studio as the instructors are cordial and the classes are fantastic, but in general the pricing structure and cancellation policies sort of bum me out, and now this. Wrapping up this class pass, but not sure I’ll be back.

This place is AWESOME!!! Bought a groupon to try out the spin classes as a beginner. Now i bought the whole month and will continue to go. The spin classes are amazing. So much fun and motivating. Its not an intimidating setting at all. The instructors are really welcoming. Emily, Jennifer and Cynthia have the most energetic classes. They are so motivating and really get you to sweat and make you work your butt off. The front desk is so nice also. Definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to try something new.

The two stars is because I actually really like the cycling classes. They have great instructors, friendly front desk, great workout. The lost stars is for their Pilates, specifically the instructor Sandra. Even when I leave negative reviews I try to see it from the point of view of the business. The class states that it is not a requirement but recommended you take the studios other Pilates classes before the chisel class. I have signed their waiver, I’m ready and excited to try the class. I woke up early, got ready, and show up and the instructor asks me to leave since I have not taken classes there before because she doesn’t want the liability. I tell her I’m there I would really like to work out so if possible I will sign whatever, I will do less resistance, whatever it takes. She says she can not have two different levels in her class. I appreciate that she knows her limitations as a teacher but I feel like if you are not capable of slightly modifying then you must over all not be a very good teacher. I mean she could have had me do sit ups all class and I would have been happier. It really would not have taken much. I asked if I can at least start and if she feels I can not keep up I can leave then but still no. This is not the studios fault, this entirely the fault of the instructor. Workouts are about challenging ourselves, I KNoW I could have done it and I know my limits and I’m willing to sign a waiver saying they warned me and I chose to stay. It really was about her comfort and not wanting to challenge herself at that point. She could have had me do the warm ups with them. I’m sad because I really like the cycling classes I have taken with Hyde and Gillian but I’m just not sure if I want to come back anymore.
I work out to be challenged. I am a teacher and I enjoy the challenges with that as well. With me taking the liability completely off of the instructor and studio, and going off the description of the class I am disappointed that this class did not live up to challenging me as a student or challenging herself as a teacher.

I just started going today. I highly recommend this Spin studio for anybody looking to lose a quick 20 pounds. It’s so much fun and you come out with so much energy. The lady at the front desk is so helpful.

The Coachella Valley finally has a great spin studio! I split my time between LA and Rancho Mirage and I spin at all the top studios in LA with the best instructors. The desert has always been somewhat of an isolated island – I mean, I cannot spin at a Gold’s or World Gym with broken equipment and poorly trained instructors (you get what you pay for). So I was pretty skeptical that Pedal Spin in Rancho Mirage could be great, but trust me, it is. Brand new, spacious, airy, high quality bikes, excellent lighting, sound system, and some really first class instructors who could hold their own with the good ones in LA. Love Troy – amazing drills, coaxes maximum intensity out of you, and really good music. Lorrie is a gem and always reminds you about form and pace.

Today was my first time going to the Claremont studio and it was awesome. The woman (I totally forgot her name, sorry!) checking people in was super nice and friendly. I took Patrick’s class and his energy was contagious. After taking his class I’m definitely going to purchase more classes. I look forward to trying out the other instructors’ classes.

Love! The staff is great and the classes are reasonable and so much fun! Customer service is always top notch! That’s why they have six locations to their name! Highly recommend!

Just started 2 weeks ago. Signed up for the $ 49 unlimited month, and I LOVE IT! All the girls are sweet and energetic and super friendly. I have gotten 2 more of my friends to come with me and they love it as well. You have GOT to come here… This place ROCKS!!!

Can I give this place six stars? Okay, here’s my deal: a friend talked me into joining so we could, you know, not be complete coach potatoes. But I hate gyms; I feel intimidated by all the fit and fabulous bodies strutting their stuff and here’s me with a few spare bike tires and a loose shirt.
So we get there for our first class and I can tell we’re both kind of nervous. The music is loud, the lights are low, I’m thinking what is this, a rave? Once the doors opened, I saw a variety of people rolling out, not just supermodels. So already my blood pressure starts coming down.
Plus the receptionist was totally nice. Plus my first instructor (and EVERY instructor since, I’ve been to about 10 classes now) is totally cool, supportive, and non-​judgmental. They are there to push you but also show you a good time. All kinds of people (not just Claremont College co-​eds) are there, sweating it out and releasing those endorphins.
Take it from me, a person who doesn’t like exercise, it is fun. And if you have to exercise, which we all do, we should try to make it as enjoyable as possible. I wholeheartedly love Pedal Spin.

I really love this in studio in Claremont. I have been coming for 2 years and always get a good workout. The music is really good and the instructors are helpful and motivating.
I love that you can reserve classes online and that there a lot of bikes for both clip in pedals and non. I also find the classes reasonably priced and they have package deals.

I LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH
I have been going to Pedal Spin for two months now. They had a great introductory month offer and after a few classes I was sold. The teachers are nice; the service is great. I had never really found a work-​out outlet that I really enjoyed until now. Everything can be done online too. You can sign up for classes, buy packages, and keep your payment information stored so that even in the store they can just charge your account. I’d recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for a fun place to get and stay in shape.

I love Pedal Spin… Everyone here is amazing. Brandi (DJ B Selecta), Cindy and Patrick are some of the amazing instructors that will work you out and push you to reach your health and fitness goals. Then we have the all amazing Madison at the front desk; she is there to help with all your needs and concerns. I encourage all to be apart of this great workout we call spin. People please consider joining Pedal Spin I promise it will be the best thing that happens to your life. Any negative comments you hear about pedal spin is totally bogus please don’t listen to those people they are seriously on crack of some kind!

This has more to do with service. I signed up for the 3 month auto pay. I heard that if I don’t talk to someone at the end of my 3 months, they would continue to charge me. I thought that was odd considering I only agreed to 3 months but whatever. I talked to Danielle Bell in Montrose 2 weeks prior to let her know I didn’t want to continue after my 3 months were up. The week of my end date I talked to Kristin in Montrose to confirm I would not be charged anymore. July comes and I’m charged. I talked to Madison and Emily and Tommy (?) from the Claremont studio to see what was up. Emily told me to email Michelle directly so I did. Still no reply. Im more upset that the communication is getting lost somewhere and i was charged in the first place and my refund isn’t even getting processed.
Other than that Patricks class is my favorite and Emily is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Becca’s class in Montrose is also awesome if you’re ever out there.

I have always loved spinning classes, but since moving to SoCal where everyone is super health conscious and fit, trying to get into a spin class at 24 hour fitness is like a 3 hour commitment. = 30 minutes to drive there + arrive 1 hour before class starts to get a pass and figure out what to do for that hour + 1 hour of class + 30 minutes to drive home… I just don’t have time for that! So I decided to give Pedal Spin Studio a try since they are offering a $ 49 for one month unlimited for new clients (GREAT DEAL!!)
Pros:
Easy to use online scheduler to sign up for classes so you only have to show up 15 minutes before class to get a bike.
Great music
Great instructors (my personal favs are Michelle, Emily, Cheryl and DJ B Selecta)
Friendly people all around!
Lots of class times to choose from including weekends
Great locations — Claremont Village or Rancho Cucamonga on the outskirts of Victoria Gardens
The only downside I can think of is that personally for me, it is slightly expensive because I feel like I will be paying full price for a package every time. I wish they could offer monthly specials for packages or offer promotions as raffles for clients. For example, I know of a barre studio that does Win a class Wednesdays on Facebook where clients answer the question posted and is randomly chosen for one free class and they give out monthly emails with specials like if you and a friend sign up for unlimited monthly, your price is $ 125 instead of $ 225.when I see deals like this I’m thinking. oh I better snag this deal or next month I will regret it.
Also, I noticed that the Claremont classes fill up faster than Rancho, probably because lots of Claremont college students go there and I think there are less bikes there than Rancho.
Other than that, I was very pleased with my month long experience at Pedal Spin. I hope to jump back on the bike soon!
