About the Club

Harlem Cycle was born from the belief that fitness is essential, and essential to fitness is belonging.

We are pioneering a new kind of fitness community: one that values body health over body shape, high engagement over high fees, and community over competition. All with the swagger, vibe, and cultural richness of Harlem itself.

I absolutely love Harlem Cycle! The location is great, the space is always clean, and the atmosphere is welcoming and full of positive energy.

What makes this place truly special is the sense of community. The manager really cares and makes sure you feel supported and comfortable. The instructors are incredibly friendly and encouraging; no matter your fitness level, you always feel like you belong.

It’s not just about exercise here — it’s about being part of something uplifting. In a busy city like New York, it’s rare to find a place where people genuinely support each other. Harlem Cycle offers that, and it’s something I deeply appreciate.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a motivating, supportive, and fun workout experience!

I didn’t know what to expect going into this cycling class, but what a great experience. The ride was challenging but doable while being encouraged to go at your own pace and listen to your body. The music was on point, I appreciate the mix of sprints, hills, and recovery time. It made the 45 minutes flew by.

The instructor had such a great vibe-super motivating without being pushy and offer bike setup for beginners

Highly recommended if you want a workout that leaves you feeling strong, sweaty, and genuinely good.

I found Harlem Cycle by chance, after having missed spin since Covid closed my favorite local studios. I joke that I am probably their oldest cyclist, but the instructors are inspiring, and I enjoy the warmth and inclusivity of the classes. I also get a terrific workout. Convenience used to mean everything to me, but the classes are worth taking the train. I highly recommend Harlem Cycle.

If you’re looking for a sense of community, fun and challenging classes, amazing instructors, and super friendly staff, Harlem Cycle is the place to be. But this isn’t just your average cycle studio — membership comes with amazing perks like the chance to join their annual retreat in Costa Rica, and participate in fitness challenges with cool prizes. And if you’re lucky, you might even get to ride alongside Tammeca, the kick-ass owner and Lululemon brand ambassador. So what are you waiting for? Sign up for a class at one of their two Harlem studios!

I took my first ride 2 months ago and was immediately hooked. Upon entering the Harlem Cycle studio there was a sign welcoming me to my first class. A staff member helped me to adjust my bike and we were off. The music selection was great, the instructions were clear, and the vibe was right. I spin Twice a week, and any time I get to start my day with Harlem cycle, I know it’s going to be a good one!

This was my second year attending the Harlem Cycle Wellness Retreat in Costa Rica, and once again, it was nothing short of transformational. Tammecca has a true gift for curating experiences that are both adventurous and deeply restorative.

This year’s retreat was an unforgettable mix of movement, mindfulness, and pure joy. We rode ATVs through the mountains to visit a coffee farm, kayaked in the open ocean (a bit treacherous but totally worth it!), and spent a dreamy, relaxing day on a gorgeous beach. We learned to salsa and merengue, got our bodies moving with energizing workouts, and balanced it all with grounding meditation sessions.

The food at Selva Armonia was another highlight—fresh, healthy, and absolutely delicious. I’m still dreaming about those carrot pancakes and the smoothies! And as always, the company was incredible. There’s something special about being surrounded by such positive, like-minded people.

This retreat fills my cup in every way possible, and I’m already counting down the days to next year’s adventure.

I had a coupon for a $12 class for first-timers. I decided to give the class a try since it was so inexpensive. I attended the class and the staff was incredibly helpful with setting me up on the bike, since it was my first time ever taking a cycling class. The instructor was super friendly and they really made the class fun! That same day I ended up going home and looking up their membership deals! I ended up enrolling in their premium monthly plan which allowed me to take three classes a week each month. For the first time in a really long time, I felt motivated and excited about exercising. All the instructors are really amazing and it kept me wanting to come back. I really love that they not only offer cycling classes but also offer mat-based work outs. While I love cycling, I also love that I can change up my exercise routine by throwing in some mat-based work outs. I absolutely love Harlem Cycle and would strongly recommend!

I have been eying a trip to Harlem Cycle since it opened and finally for a treat I took advantage of a trial period of classes. I am so happy that I did! All of the teachers are supportive, fun and great leaders. The support staff is also very kind and ready to help with anything. I have not done a spinning class in 10 years and it is a big difference from late 40's to late 50's, but as they say....you don't forget how to get back on a bike and spinning is the same. It all came back quickly and with the support and encouragement of the staff...felt great! I love the atmosphere of power, strength, positive support and fun! That is what makes Harlem Cycle special and unique. It is a ride for your body and your spirit!

When I arrived at Harlem Cycle for my first class I was greeted by a chalkboard sign in the lobby welcoming me to the studio. That was in addition to a personal text before and after class from the owner. I always get a little nervous trying a new fitness studio and this community made me feel at ease immediately. The instructors are inspiring and the ish you without making you feel bad if you are having a slower day or are new to a specific exercise. I highly recommend trying the new student special and checking out a few classes as each teacher has their own flavor.

I've been attending Harlem Cycling classes at 137th street since July and I LOVE IT!! The classes are fun and the instructors are judgment free- they encourage you to keep going but allow you to modify your ride as needed. I've had the pleasure of meeting Tammeca who was very friendly and the front desk ladies Britney (sp) and Maria always greet me by name when I enter. It feels like a family every ride!

A true Harlem gem — after more than 275 rides, Harlem Cycle became my favorite hobby and pastime during my time in the neighborhood. The consistently electrifying energy, motivating instructors, and upbeat music create an experience like no other. The studio's vibrant atmosphere truly sets it apart in the fitness scene. You will always leave a class feeling exhilarated and accomplished.
Can't wait to be back for another incredible ride!

- Very friendly staff from front desk to instructors
- These bikes have screens and I love it. Helps you keep track of your RPM+Resistance.
- You don’t need cycle shoes for this studio. They’re not clip in bikes.
- I took Bernexs class and he was amazing!

I’ve gone to classes at both Harlem Cycle studios and enjoy both! All of the instructors I’ve experienced are so engaging, encouraging, and have great playlists. Finding a spin studio where I feel comfortable and seen is really important to me, and Harlem Cycle checks off both boxes for me. As someone who is still newer to spin I don’t feel intimated here. Thank you for what you’re offering!!

I have been coming to Harlem Cycle since 2018. I have seen this business grow into two cycling studios now. This cycling studio is clean and spacious . The staff is always friendly, upbeat, and accommodating. The class are small, challenging , and the music gets you going. My favorite instructors and Leah and Tameca (owner) , I truly appreciate that they keep me motivated and I will keep coming back. Thanks for making me feel part of a community . I would highly recommend that everyone attend one class and you will be hooked.

I have worked out in many spaces in many places (many of which were white owned and operated), and I must say that the vibe at Harlem Cycle is superior. I could feel the strength and resilience and power in the people and this goes beyond the physical. That combined with the playlists made for unforgettable experiences that my body and soul will surely miss now that my time in NYC (for the time being) has come to an end. Great spot, check it out!

I just had one of the best spin classes of my life! Leah is absolutely incredible. She knows exactly which muscles are going to start burning with each song, her directions and coaching are spot on and she learned names of folks right away. The real stand out about the class was the absence of “summer body ready” & “skinny talk”. Leah focused on strength and personal goals; As someone working on building body positivity, and a healthier kinder relationship with my body, Leah provided a safe and fun environment.
