When spin first burst onto the boutique fitness scene, none of us could have predicted it’d take off the way it did. Nowadays, you’ve got your choice of spin studios and ride styles so you can pedal your heart out on a bike that goes nowhere. (Honestly, it’s the best.) Want to spin and do barre? Want free shoe rentals? Want childcare? We promise you’ll find all of that — and more — at the Philadelphia-area studios that offer spin classes below.
Note: This guide only includes studios that offer drop-in spin classes, meaning you do not need to have a membership to participate.
Spin Classes in Philly
Balance Chestnut Hill
Where: 12 West Willow Grove Avenue, Chestnut Hill
Price for a single class: $15
Shoe rentals? No. Riders can wear cycling shoes with SPD cleats or sneakers.
On Thursday mornings at Balance Chestnut Hill, catch TRX/Cardio/Core, a 45-minute full-body circuit class. You’ll rotate around three stations: intervals on a spin bike, training using TRX bands, and core work on the floor. It’s definitely for the fitness “roosters,” as class begins at 6:15 a.m.
BPM Fitness
Where: 1808 Spring Garden Street, Spring Garden
Price for a single class: $28
Shoe rentals? No. All bikes feature toe straps for sneakers but are also SPD-compatible.
If you like mixing up your workouts with more than just spin, BPM’s fusion classes might be right up your alley. In their Full Body Burn, The Roots, Pure Power, and Circuit Breaker classes, you’ll start with 25-30 minutes of cycling, followed by 25-30 minutes of strength training. Alternatively, you can sign up for a 45-minute all-cycling class.
Northeast Cycle
Where: 9910 Frankford Avenue, Northeast Philly
Price for a single class: $15
Shoe rentals? No. All bikes have cages for sneakers but are also SPD-compatible.
Opened in 2019, Northeast Cycle brought spinning to a section of the city that didn’t really have much of a boutique indoor cycling sitch. The studio offers a variety of classes, including the 60-minute Weekend Warrior, the heavy drill-focused Increase Your Flat Road, and 15/15/15, which segments the class into thirds, one for cardio and speed, one for strength and climbs, and the last centered on RPMs and watts.
Revel Ride
Where: 1632 South Street, Graduate Hospital
Price for a single class: $30
Shoe rentals? Yes, free of charge and included in every class. If you want to bring your own, the Revel bikes are compatible with both Look Delta and SPD cleats.
Revel Ride has got one heck of a community at its home on South Street. The spin studio brings three styles of riding under one roof: music-driven (Revel in the Rhythm), performance-driven (Revel in the Power), and one that combines them both while letting you simply enjoy your time on the bike (Revel in the Ride).

Unite Fitness
Where: 26 South 20th Street, Rittenhouse
Price for a single class: $28
Shoe rentals? No. Riders can wear cycling shoes with SPD cleats or sneakers.
Unite’s signature 55-minute workout combines cardio with strength training for a total-body sweat sesh. In the first part of class, you have the option to pedal on a spin bike or run on a treadmill to the beat of the music for 25 minutes. But because you’re checking out this guide, chances are you’ll be choosing the bike.
The Wall Fitness Studio
Where: 132 Levering Street, Manayunk
Price for a single class: $22
Shoe rentals? No. All bikes have cages for sneakers but are also SPD-compatible.
The Wall in Manayunk (which has been in the game for 10 years!) offers three types of indoor cycling classes. The Spin & Sculpt is a top seller: an intervals ride that continues with strength training using TRX bands, free weights, kettlebells, and more. Rise & Grind offers 60 minutes of spinning and HIIT for all you early risers, while the 30- or 45-minute classic cycling class is fit for anyone, any time of day.

The spin classes at Rejuvenate Fitness bring the energy and the tech.
