Information about Bodhi and Ride

416/418 Bay St
3207, Melbourne
Bodhi and Ride is a boutique indoor cycle studio brand. When we RIDE, everything is possible. We push through doubts and insecurities. We workout faster and harder than ever before. We leave sweat dripping and endorphin filled. When we RIDE, we work at high intensity for short periods of time, burning between 400 and 600 calories. We tone muscles, shed fat and increase our metabolism. More importantly, we connect. We connect with our body, soul and mind. We connect with each other. When the doors close, lights dim and music fills the chamber, it’s magical. When we stop, close our eyes and take a deep breath, we set an intention for the RIDE ahead come together as a tribe.

Fantastic experience: Genuinely the best way to work out. Every instructor is amazing and helpful. Bri and Bianca are especially amazing, especially if you're just starting out, they've both helped me get faster and stronger each week and reach a new goal, and they have the best taste in music if you're a 2000s/pop fan! Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: As someone who came here today with minimal fitness due to healing from ongoing injuries, this was an amazing kickstart to building aerobic fitness again! Thank you so much Bri for taking me through everything and being so helpful. The staff are lovely. The fellow riders are lovely. You really can't go wrong here! Everything is at your own pace. You decide whether you want to push or take a breath. The trainer guides you through everything. The class was the perfect length too. The music was a great distraction and you can't hear how out of breath you are - Great mind trick! I'm definitely a Bodhi and Ride convert! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to build aerobic fitness or for spicing up your pre-existing routine!

Fantastic experience: This local venue was formally an art gallery, now with bodi n ride.. maybe in time I'll be able to say by body is a new work of art that deserves exhibiting¿? Such an excellent, exhilarating experience with an awesome welcoming vibe... I Really Wanna RIDE!

Fantastic experience: I take classes at the Port melbourne studio. The instructors are absolutely amazing. I wasn’t sure if this class would be the right fit for me because I’m struggling to get back in shape after a thyroid issue and a back injury. I was nervous that these classes would be too difficult for me. They are challenging, but I do what I can! The instructors are great and really encouraging they understand there are different fitness levels. They are also kind and come in with such positive attitudes every day, it’s contagious and I look forward to coming in every morning.

Fantastic experience: If I could give it more than 5 stars I definitely would. I did my first every class November 7th and I have never felt such a warm welcome from the instructors and the class. I felt like I had been riding with them for years. I definitely recommend to everyone. It is very hard an I've never had a workout that left me dripping with that much sweat, but it is worth it. It's challenging to the mind and the body, but by the end of it you feel like a new a person who has accomplished so much in the short but hard 45mins.

Fantastic experience: Such a beautiful studio and can't wait to get back on a bike there after lockdown

Fantastic experience: If someone told me last year that I would enjoy a spin class; a sweaty hot, messy spin class, i'd have laughed SO hard! So so hard! I'm not a spin girl. I'm not a fit girl. I hate sweating & getting puffed out. Oh how I would've laughed. But my gosh, how wrong I was!?! Some mad moment led me to giving a bodhi & ride spin class a go as part of 'this girl can program' and I loved it. Somehow a sweaty spin class is actually cathartic, uplifting & fun. Well, not just any spin class, a bodhi & ride spin class. I have tried a big chain gym spin class, once, that's where the laughter originated from... The only part I liked from the big gym class was the fans. I do miss the fans. But am learning to embrace the heat of bodhi. Worth trading the fans for the music, the lights, darkness, weights track, & awesome instructors of Bodhi! The Sunday R&B class with Kate is now a permanent fixture of my weekends. Kate is just brilliant, her session is so uplifting & sets me up for a new week ahead. I'll stop waffling now... If you've read to the end of this, I highly recommend trying a class!

Fantastic experience: Love my experience with Bodhi & Ride Port Melbourne since day 1. The trainer are fantastic, always paying attention to meaningful little things, remembering our names, etc. I love Caitlin, she always have the best playlist. Kate also so great, they’re both so encouraging in class and always in good spirits. Bodhi and Ride is a must for indoor cycling session, the feeling after every class are the best.

Negative experience: So people can’t review places they’ve been to pre lockdown? Fake name or no name a review is a review. The unprofessionalism in your responses to the bad reviews is appalling not to mention cringeworthy. Your attitude towards your bad reviewers reflects the horrible customer service my friend and I had received. Not even a single apology or regard to the customers who had a bad experience with you. Learn to deal with the criticism.

Natalie M 5 years ago

Negative experience: I can echo the other negative reviews - I’ve experienced atrocious customer service and communication from Bodhi and Ride as well as snappish behaviour

Chriss Mannix 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Exercise? What exercise? The time goes by so quickly you hardly realise you've built up a sweat. The environment is perfect for people like me who like to exercise solo but together! You can work as hard as you like and it's always fun to test yourself out and push yourself to your own limits on the dashboard. The instructors are well trained and always fun.

Fantastic experience: Loved every second of it! I usually do RPM classes but this was on another level. Have decided to keep this as a regular at least once a week. Music and chamber is so much fun! Everyone is really friendly and all instructors put 110% effort into their classes. The facilities are amazing, shoes, towels and locker are provided each session. They also have face wash/body products and antiperspirant so its great in case you forget one day!
