Alex’s class was incredible! She brought great energy and I’m so excited she’s a new Kendall permanent instructor. She gave great instruction for the newer students and challenged everyone to work at their pace. I can’t wait to take more classes with her!

Alexa was amazing! Her energy, choreography, and song choices made the entire class enjoyable and uplifting. I felt challenged in the best way possible, and the positive feeling I had afterward was incredible. I can't wait to attend another class with her! Highly recommended!

Not as enjoyable as the Harvard SQ location, but still good, and has decent facilities. The bikes are also different.

It was okay, choice of music was alright, with obvious mirroring to soul cycle, which too is alright.

Seem to be more friendly towards long term users rather than first time people like me but it does the trick. They're also below ground so makes the whole experience feel like an escape room- spin class all in one.

Saturday morning class felt like a community. Had a really great time here - although it is not the studio closest to my home, I would come back.

One of the best cycling classes I’ve been to in Boston! The staff is FANTASTIC - kind, friendly, and personable. The Ariana Grande ride on Wednesday with Jesse was a truly motivational and intense workout. Steph is also a fantastic instructor! Parking is truly the only downside to this location but staff can help you find permit free streets to park on nearby. Cant wait to ride again soon πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ

Great small spin studio with awesome people and super fun and challenging classes! You never know exactly what to expect because every class is different, but I never regret going. Great community of riders and instructors!

Love this studio! The teachers are amazing and you can pick the class based on the musical artists that will be playing in the class so you can really select the style that will pump you up. They always mix up the playlists too so you don't get sick of any songs. It's also really affordable, great deals and class packs, the spin shoes are included w/ each class and are high quality (leather with good stretch but firm hold), the place is clean, and people are friendly and positive.

I absolutely LOVE turnstyle! It's definitely the best, most afforable spin studio I've been to in the Boston area. All of the instructors and staff are wonderful, I would highly recommend!

Get here a little early to make sure you can put your personal belongings in a locker and get your shoes on!

Turnstyle will give your spot away to people on the waitlist. We showed up to a class yesterday several minutes early only to find that both spots (myself and my friend) had been given to waitlisters. Make sure you show up very early for classes even if you reserve a spot.

I love this place. I personally only attend their TRX classes which are always a challenge if you make it. The instructors are motivating, helpful, and want you to have perfect form (something I admire). They emphasis your own personal strength and challenge you. Love it.

Turnstyle tends to offer slightly more affordable spin classes (compared to Soulcycle and Flywheel) but the instructors are just as energized and awesome. People rave about Dr. DEEPAK at Kendall, a spunky instructor with intense motivational coaching throughout. They offer cycling and bootcamp style classes. I always get a good sweat. Plus there are great places to grab a bite or a beer post class in this Kendall alcove.

It's a good cycling workout. However, this isn't the best studio. First, there are no locker rooms. They have very limited changing areas, so you really need to get there ahead of time. Second, they have very limited bathrooms, so you'll be waiting a while to shower. Finally, the staff at the front desk when I went was not very helpful.

I like most of the classes but it's super small and the showering situation is near impossible with only two showers and no locker room.

Cramped in a basement. I feel like the room I worked out in was meant to be a closet. However, good utilization of space and a decent bootcamp class.

The classes here are really good if you have Rich or Becca as the instructors. However, they just stopped doing the $99 unlimited cycling a month. They now offer a $129 for both cycling and indoor workout.

I loved the studio, the crew is awesome, and there are plenty of classes to try to fit in your schedule.

My one gripe is with the riders who usually attend - they can be a bit snobby and territorial over their usual spots/bikes. Nevertheless, I've never had a situation bad enough to prevent me from returning.

Keep it up Turnstyle team!

Massive fan of this place. Travelled to Boston for a couple of weeks' study at MIT and managed to join a few sessions. Great core workout from the Ryder bikes, which took some getting used to. A very cool, welcoming crew.

Not your regular spin studio. It might seem weird at first, their bikes called RealRyder ... wobbles. I was weirded out and thought I was falling when trying to get on the first time! But it's meant to wobble. It's meant to mimic a real bike more where you can "turn" left and right, which also exercises your core and upper body more than a regular stationary bike! The instructor I had was great and energetic. They have plenty of lockers to store your stuff during the class and sometimes they do special events. There's an instructor who is a Laura Mercier beauty artists and they've held a Beauty Night where she gives makeup and skincare tips.
