JoyRide Cycling Studio has brought its high-energy, calorie-torching and full-body workouts to Darien!
JoyRide classes are geared toward all ages, genders and fitness levels. Lorenz, the lead instructor, designed JoyRide's exclusive training method, which combines core elements of Pilates with high-quality indoor cycling to maximize cardiovascular benefits, lower blood pressure, develop muscle tone and reduce body fat.
Because indoor cycling is interval-based -- the intensity varies throughout the class by changing body positions, pedal speed and resistance -- it is one of the most efficient ways to torch calories. Riders can burn between 600-800 calories in a single, 50-minute class. During the last 10 minutes of class, pedaling is combined with an upper body workout using a weighted body bar, followed by a cool down and stretch.
Every JoyRide class is choreographed to an ever-changing and diverse playlist of rock, pop, hip-hop, classic and contemporary music to motivate riders and increase the fun factor. Instructors cue riders to ride to the beat, adjusting resistance appropriately to follow the tempo.
To complement their popular indoor cycling classes, JoyRide also offers classes to improve strength and flexibility, including mat Pilates, JoySculpt and JoyCircuit, group interval training classes that combines weights, resistance and plyometric training for optimal results. The studio will also offer personal training.
JoyRide’s Darien studio will be open seven days a week and will offer classes starting at 6 am for the early risers and commuters, and through the early evening. Every Sunday at noon, the following week’s schedule is published online at joyridestudio.com, where JoyRiders can reserve specific bikes in their favorite classes. Reserving a bike in advance is highly recommended because classes fill up quickly.
