What Peloton Has That We Don't

If you’re a human being on planet Earth you have spent the last two years evolving, based on our changing environment, requiring that we “go virtual” in order to be more effective and safe. That goes for work and for workOUTs. Companies like Peloton, Obe Fitness and The Tracey Anderson Method platforms are #thriving by providing beautiful, fun workouts to be streamed anywhere, anytime! It’s a good thing we are able to adapt and that companies like these exist, ready to give us what we need, meet us where we are at, and support us to stay physically and mentally well.

That’s what Peloton and others have, that Control Studios can’t compete with; That level of untethered access is a power we do not posses. They give you quick, quality at-home access to workout inspiration and virtual community on a robust platform — But you know what — that has its own unique challenges to the end user. What if you get hurt during an at-home workout bc your settings are off, or something in your body just feels “off” that day, but you don’t understand exactly why, and you need to ask a fitness professional in the moment in order to continue without pain and frustration. If you’re at-home you can’t raise your hand and ask Robin. (Although if Peloton gets a hold of this blog I bet they’ll find a way to solve this proposed challenge lol.) Now before we move forward, you can’t trade in your Peloton for a 10 pack of privates at our studio and get the same results. So everyone, please hear this, we are not here to compete, but instead, we are here to COMPLIMENT everything you’re doing with them, or the other powerful fusion fitness streaming platforms out there keeping us all elevated and inspired to live more active lives.

My point in this super “bloggy” blog post is to remind you all that you need it all to be well rounded. You need the constant virtual access and at-home solo groove but you also need expert eyes on you every now and again to ensure, that one-and-only body of yours, stays in tip-top shape.

At Control Studios whether you come once a month to a small group class IRL, on our bad ass classical equipment, or once a week for private training, you’ll have expert eyes and hands on you to modify, advance and pivot the experience real-time based on what you need.
