Nothing Really Ends

So last fall I was feeling a whole lot of feelings about yoga and did a preview, and then a complete review, of The Chelsea Set… and more recently I went through a period of pretty deep introspection and countered it with the absolute blast that was Sam’s Video Store rides (preview and review as well!) Where does one go from there? Well, the deep introspection led to a bunch of revelations… and among the more minor revelations was the fact that I absolutely love Cowboy Carter, beginning to end. I’ve always liked Beyoncé in what I’d call a mainstream sort of way (let’s face it, I’m a pretty mainstream music person in general), but something about this album caught my attention and I have been listening to it on repeat for about the past month and a half. That led me to a deeper dive into a few of Beyoncé’s other albums, and I found out that the songs of hers I knew were just the tip of the iceberg. 

So…. I’ve been frantically consuming the history of Beyoncé, and what better way to take a trip back through the classics than sweat to them?

For Things To Stay The Same They Have to Change

Peloton first partnered with Beyoncé in November 2020 (within weeks of when I got my Peloton, but at that point I was just thrilled to be making it to Advanced Beginner classes!) The Clip Out reported then that as part of the partnership, Peloton would be giving memberships to ten historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and that the collaboration would last several years. While we did have the round of Beyoncé classes in fall of 2020 and a second round in 2021, we haven’t seen any since then, and there’s definitely been Beyoncé music that’s more than worthy.

Ready for some more, Peloton- your move!

The classic is, of course, the Tunde and Alex two for one. I did that one quite early on in my Peloton life, and I recall it completely kicking my ass. It’s three years later and I’m in better shape, so I guess we’ll see how it goes this time… but however it goes, I’ll get to hear the queen, and that will make me happy even if I’m dying in a puddle of sweat on the floor.
