Super fun place to work out!! Paisley, Jonathan, and Dallas are my favorite instructors, but I’ve had really great experiences with all of them. Their spin classes are obviously amazing but they have some good Pilates/yoga classes too which are fun to mix it up. Would def recommend, nice people and supportive atmosphere all around no matter your fitness level.

I was surprised that they had an amazing smoothie and acai cafe attached to this fitness studio (spin classes, trx cable workouts, hot yoga, etc.). Very clean and well maintained for the cafe and fitness studio.

It's been a year since my disappointing experience at Ride Oakland. I hesitated to write this review, but looking back at 2024, this was the worse spin class experience. Despite having spun for 15 years at various studios (cycle bar, rush cycle, soul cycle), Ride Oakland treated me very rude and like a complete beginner. I had booked bike #7 but they gave it away to someone else, instead, they assigned me a bike in front of a tiny small mirror in a corner. This felt incredibly rude and unwelcoming, especially given their emphasis on community. While the class itself was decent, the negative experience overshadowed it. This incident highlights the contrast between Ride Oakland's claims of community and the reality of their unwelcoming behavior.

As a long time fan of indoor cycling, this studio has something so special. I had the pleasure of experiencing Ride Oakland and taking Jessica’s class this past Saturday and I was so moved by every aspect of my time there. From being greeted
warmly by front desk staff, to looking through the beautiful space/studio rooms, and to the end of the 45 min class - I felt like I had stepped into a sanctuary where I had so much opportunity to revitalize through movement and connection.

Jessica’s class involved so much fun, yet challenging choreography combinations that allowed for both fun play and physical strength to take place. I entered a flow state of mind and was not even conscious of the time passing. Her teachings throughout the class of ‘reveling in yourself’ made me realize how much more than a workout this place offers. It truly feels like self-care in every aspect.

So happy to have come across this studio. I will definitely be coming back!

Ride Oakland has created a wonderful community where everyone feels welcome. The cycling instructors have different styles and personalities. What they share in common is they encourage everyone to push themselves according to their own personal capacity. I've had awesome sweat drenched workouts with Luci, Jamie, Chrissy and Dallas. No judging. But they also don't let you skate. I joined for the cycling but later began attending the amazing stretching classes with Valerie, Jess and Stephanie. Kerry filled in once and she was great also. I always leave feeling so much lighter. My one regret is it took me so long to discover them when I live so close!

Most people don't love waking up in the early hours to travel to the gym for exercise. I needed to do something “different” outside of my normal gym grind. The formats are AMAZING—From music types, to instructor variation, and length of class, the variation makes you feel that have a unique ride experience every time. Every instructor has a different style about riding so you can choose an instructor who fits you. Some are more inspiring while others like to push you and have fun. All the instructors hired go through intense training so they are experts in what they do. No one is watching you or judging you, which can be extremely intimidating! The front row riders are usually riders who have been to multiple classes so they understand the positions and it is easy to follow along with them as well as the instructor.
I always say that the 45 minute class feels like a 45 minute therapy session! I could not recommend Ride Oakland Cycling Studio enough! 😊

In addition, the fact that they put forward community building as a priority, along with getting a safe and effective workout, is a nice touch.

The spin class is great! But their waitlist system is a NIGHTMARE! They only let you sign up to be on the waitlist for the number of credits that you have and there is a waitlist for EVERY single outdoor class. No matter how early you try and book. Which means in order to take a class you've got to make it your full-time job to monitor which class you got into, cancel the others ON TIME (within 12 hours or else you get charged), and continuously sign up to try and get in.

Unfortunately I was denied entry to this class as I arrived a minute late. Parking is really difficult around this neighborhood. but thats not why I am leaving a bad review. It is because the team promised me a refund and that they would email me or give me the option to sign up for another class and here I am 3 days later waiting for someone to reach out.

Love going to this boutique spin class. They have friendly and helpful staff, clean spaces, great music selection, products and instructors.

The staff, instructors and riders are so diverse, friendly and approachable it really has a community.

The studio is clean. They do not have showers but have a few changing stalls and refreshments. They are expanding their space. They often host pop up of new apparel and other community events.

Before I started taking indoor cycling classes at RIDE Oakland in February, I had not exercised regularly for about three years.

The focus here is on keeping the beat, but I also like that the music is motivating, the instructors focus on form, and if I ever make it to a 7am class, that I dont fully wake up and realize im exercising until halfway through.

I come to classes at Ride Oakland when I'm visiting the Bay Area a couple times a year, and I've had great classes for the most part. My favorite instructors to take classes from are Sarah L and Donna - I love that they stay on the beat for the entire class (except for sprint/run intervals) and that their choreography matches up with the 8- and 32-counts usually (the perfectionist in me gets driven up the wall when choreography sets don't match up).

The only thing I don't love is that they sometimes have you ride flats that are WAY too fast, and especially too fast to be riding out of the saddle. I've never felt safe being out of the saddle at over 100 bpms, and I've been doing indoor cycling classes for over 10 years.

Other than that, though, the classes are fun and sweaty! I love the vibe, which is much more laid back than and not at all snotty like some other popular cycling studios that shall remain nameless. I also love that shoes are included with the class!

As a working mom with a long commute and two kids, I have tried a number of early morning workouts in the Oakland area and RiDE Oakland is my absolute favorite. The 50-minute classes get you in and out, but the best thing about this studio is the supportive environment and the wonderful instructors. I feel pushed to do my best every time I come, but never that my best is not enough. That, to me, really sets RiDE apart from other studios.

Ride Oakland is simply one of the best indoor cycling studios. I have been coming to Ride for about 5 years and have never had a bad experience. I always leave feeling stronger and more confident in myself.
As a student, it is so great that Ride offers special student deals for $18/Ride, which is WAY cheaper than any other studio or gym nearby and the classes are really worth every penny.

The instructors are all very friendly and knowledgeable. The studio is also very welcoming to new spinners, offering tours to the newbies and helping them get set up on the bike with ease. The studio is always very clean. They offer towels and shoes for no additional cost which is an excellent perk for a student trying to save as much as possible.

Ride also does weekly themed classes which are fun and switch up the work out. Street parking in front of the studio is also super easy. Overall, Ride offers an epic community of spinners and a great environment to exercise and get to know your fellow Bay Area humans. I highly recommend trying a class here and the first class is always FREE!
