An amazingly challenging and energizing Classic class with Jaclyn. Jaclyn is very motivating, supportive and encouraging in a very fast paced challenging class that you can take at your own pace.

It’s unbelievable she can instruct while showing us what to do and what pace to keep. Will make me want to work harder to keep up.
Such an amazing intro with Jaclyn!

I have an ankle injury and it was terrifying to stand and I re-injured myself a bit cracking my ankle on the clasp in shoes on the bike.
Unless you want to waste money and get insulted if you are a beginner,...
Read moreCycleBar Montclair is an amazing spot for a workout! The studio is modern, pristine, and has an electric atmosphere with dynamic lighting and awesome music that make every ride feel like an event. The staff is warm and approachable, creating a great environment. Instructors Ashley, Gill, and Jenn are outstanding, each with their own flair. Ashley’s high energy keeps the whole class pumped. I loved her ad lib interjections. Gill’s focus on challenging you mentally and physically really brings out your inner strength. Jenn is a gem, not only does she lead fun, engaging rides, but she’s also amazing at helping new riders feel welcome and assisting with account updates. The CycleStats tech is a nice touch for tracking your performance. CycleBar Montclair and these instructors make every class a blast, no matter your experience level. This is my preferred fitness studio when traveling to NJ/NY. Excited for...
