Ocean Ride Cycling Studio

I am new to Island Park and decided to try this place out after my cousin recommended it to me. The studio is very clean, and the staff is friendly. During class, all lights are turned out and the room is lit with electric candles. There is a fan in each corner of the room and the temperature of the room was comfortable. I had an excellent ride with instructor Stacy. She incorporated weights into the class and her music was awesome. A few bikes were squeaky which was a little annoying, but other than that, I would recommend this place to anyone who loves spin or soul cycle.

I’ve taken several classes here and did enjoy them. I was a big SoulCycle junkie, but wanted to find something in my town for the weekends and possibly after work.
Unfortunately Ocean Ride didn’t resonate with me as I had hoped, but I wouldn’t go as far to say I’d never return to give it another chance.
The instructors were all very knowledgeable and really did give me a good workout so can’t complain there! One thing I wasn’t used to was the bikes. Even at my gym we had different bikes that seemed to be more comfortable, but then again I was wearing regular sneakers to clip myself in rather than the spin shoes. Toward the end without the proper shoes my feet were killing me so make sure to wear shoes made for spin!
One thing I do remember is the manager was super nice! They always have great specials too!

I had an awesome experience tonight at Ocean Ride. Liz gave a great class. I had both a great workout and a relaxing experience. I wasn’t relaxed in the sense of intensity. She made us work! I just really enjoyed the vibe and the motivation. She made sure that we all listened to our bodies without going too easy on ourselves. I also enjoyed the electric candles and music. That gave the ambiance a nice touch. It’s also very clean. Sanitizing wipes are available. The members of the studio always make sure to wipe down their bikes. Although the instructor knew that we cleaned our bikes off, she cleaned each bike off anyway afterwards.
Outside the studio, the front desk is very helpful. You are given a locker without having to pay any rental fees. Towels are small, but at least they are included. The clothes they sell are also super cute. I couldn’t help but buy this fringe crop top designed by Liz. It says «Greetings from Long Beach, Rebuild the beach.» The shirt was inspired by Long Beach’s recovery after Hurricane Sandy. The profits go towards local charities. I just had to support them (plus the shirt is way too cute!)
I definitely look forward to taking another class there the next time I come back to visit my family on Long Island. It’s a few blocks from the beach. You can easily go to them in the morning and then go tan on the beach right afterwards! Highly recommended!

I’ve been going to Ocean Ride now since April and I love it. The studio is clean, the owners are great people and the instructors are wonderful. The studio is small so everyone feels like part of the class. All levels are welcome and they have various classes every day. Love supporting this community business. You can buy by the class or packages, no membership required which is great. So happy Ocean Ride is part of Long Beach. I highly recommend it. I’ve always had trouble sticking to an exercise routine but I look forward to each class I take at Ocean Ride!

I have been working out for over a year now and in the process I have lost 41 pounds. Throughout that time, I maybe did spin once a week and thats even alot. I am not a fan of spin but after trying out Ocean Ride, I am a total fan now! They make exercising fun all while giving you a kick ass workout. I leave each time drenched in a pool of sweat. All the instructors I have tried so far have been great with each of them having their unique style of leading the class. The studio is super clean and spacious and high tech. I love that I can understand each instructor clearly all the while having my heart pumping to awesome music. Everyone is very friendly. They even give out free towels at the beginning of each class. I am now a fan of spin and look forward to my classes at Ocean Ride. Give them a try! You wont be sorry and the first class is always free. I know you will be hooked after the first time like I was. You can thank me later :-)

The more I go the more I love this studio… Jackie’s and Liz rides are my favorites so far for endurance and strength. I’m addicted to their classes. I love Grainine music and dance moves. Stacey is the bomb!!! Love her crazy energy filled rides. Her energy is crazy!!! You must try this studio! All the instructors are great!

I am a regular at Ocean Ride in Long Beach for about 8 months now and attend their classes 2 — 3 times a week. I absolutely love it there! The owners, instructors & staff are all very welcoming, helpful & motivating. Whether its your 1^st class or your 100^th, the staff is always making sure you are comfortable and properly situated in your bike, ready for the ride.
They post their schedule on their website for the upcoming week every Monday at 9:00 am where you can reserve your bike for the desired class/​classes you want to take that week (Tuesday-​Sunday). If a class is full you will be put on a wait list & if bike opens up they will notify you. There are many class times to choose from to fit your own personal schedule starting as early as 5:45am to 7:30pm. The «Ocean Ride» class if 50 minutes & the «Ocean Strength» class is 60 minutes which also involves light hand weights for a portion of the class as well. You have the choice to purchase a single ride for $ 18 and they have packages of 5, 10, 20, 40 rides & as well as unlimited monthly rides.
The facility is always very clean & the bikes are brand new in great condition. All bikes are compatible for either spin shoes or regular sneakers so you have the choice to ride in what you feel most comfortable in.
I have taken most of the instructors classes at the studio and while they each have a slightly different style of how they teach their class, what they do have in common is that they are all highly trained & motivated to give you the best work out they can in the time you are there. There is an instructor there suitable for everyone’s comfort zone and what each individual is looking for. My personal favorite instructor they have is Margy. I enjoy a high energy & intense work out with upbeat music and I always walk out feeling amazing.
If you haven’t been here yet, I highly suggest you check it out, you have nothing to lose but probably 700 calories a class so it can’t hurt right?! Lots of street parking and across from the Long Beach LIRR. Be sure to check them out & don’t forget, your first ride is FREE!!!
Happy Riding :)
