A Toast to Ten Years: Hannah Corbin’s Decade at Peloton
A fiery New York dancer, a bubbly cycling instructor, a burn-your-peach Barre instructor, and a West Coast flower child all rolled into one – that’s Hannah Corbin for you. This weekend, we’re celebrating Hannah’s 10th anniversary at Peloton, where she has not only been a founding instructor but also a passionate guide in countless fitness journeys.
From Portland to Broadway: Hannah Corbin’s Journey
Portland, Oregon gave us Hannah, a girl with a dream in her heart and rhythm in her feet. Hannah arrived in the Big Apple on a dance scholarship at the age of 17, with her sites set on the Great White Way. And, in the early days of her Peloton journey, Hannah wore two hats – one as a fitness instructor and another as a Broadway performer, six nights a week. Now that’s what you call commitment!
Hannah shared late last year that she still feels the call of Broadway and has been working her way back to the stage over the last several months. We have a feeling that, sooner rather than later, she’ll be back to juggling performances and her Peloton teaching schedule.
Stretching: A Passion and a Philosophy
While she’s well-known for burning those glutes in her Barre classes, Hannah is also extremely passionate about maintaining flexibility. If you’ve ever taken a class with Hannah, you know she always wants to know, “Did you stretch, though?” But it’s not just a phrase for her; it’s a philosophy. Hannah firmly believes in the power of stretching to recover lost length and relieve stress. Her “12 Days of Stretch-Mas” Instagram series this past Christmas is a testament to her flexibility and her passion for sharing her favorite stretches with the world….and, if we’re being honest, a true marvel of flexibility!
Embracing Roots and Identity
Hannah’s openness about her adoption story adds another layer to her unique persona. Adopted at birth by her Caucasian parents, she’s always worn her Mexican and Puerto Rican heritage with pride. The efforts of her parents to educate her about her roots have played a pivotal role in shaping the woman she is today.
Here’s to Hannah!
