We will go over bike settings, the five basic skills used during class & the use of a heart rate monitor. Orientations are FREE and require only 30 minutes of your time.

1. Water bottle(s) and heart rate monitors are required to SPIN.
2. Participants arriving more than ten minutes after the class has begun cannot participate.
3. Participants are asked to not leave early as a proper cool down period is required for safe exercise.
