Callie Gullickson Maternity Leave Ends with 5 June Classes
She's back on the mat with a packed June schedule and a second mat leave under her belt.
Callie Gullickson maternity leave is officially over. The Peloton strength instructor returned to Peloton Studios New York on June 17, 2026, and her first class back is already on the schedule: a 30-minute Full Body Strength session live at PSNY on Thursday, June 18 at 11:30 AM ET / 4:30 PM BST.
Peloton marked the return with a formal announcement graphic on Instagram, reading simply: "Welcome back, Callie." For members who have been waiting for her to return to the mat, the wait is over.

Callie Gullickson Maternity Leave: First Class Back and What to Expect
The first class on the post-maternity-leave schedule is a 30-minute Intermediate Full Body Strength session on Thursday, June 18 at Peloton Studios New York. It is listed in the Strength/Cardio category. If you have been looking for a Peloton strength class to mark a fresh start, this is the one to book.
Callie herself made the Callie Gullickson maternity leave return feel personal. She posted an Instagram Story from inside the PSNY lobby, captioning it "honey, I'm home!" with three teary-eyed emoji. The moment was real and unscripted: a quiet lobby, the familiar space, and an instructor genuinely moved to be back.

2nd Time Around: A Very Different First Day Back

Callie did not let the return pass without some honest reflection. She posted a side-by-side Instagram comparison: the photo on top, labeled "after first day back from mat leave 2026," shows her grinning wide. The one on the bottom, labeled "after first day back from mat leave 2024," tells a different story — she is wrapped in a hoodie, visibly exhausted.
Her caption cut straight to it: "safe to say us mamas adapt and it does get easier. I remember being so exhausted after my first day back after Cash and today I feel fab haha." Two maternity leaves, two very different first days. The contrast earned a lot of response from the Peloton community for good reason.
It is the kind of moment that resonates beyond the platform. Callie's openness about returning to a demanding physical job after having a baby is part of what makes her one of the more relatable instructors on the roster. She is also one of a growing number of Peloton instructors navigating parenthood while staying active on the schedule. Peloton yoga and Pilates instructor Anna Greenberg recently announced she is expecting her first child, with the arrival due fall 2026.
She Was Already Back Before the Official Return
Callie's official first class back is June 18, but she actually made an earlier appearance the weekend before. As one of Peloton's lululemon brand ambassadors, she joined Hannah Frankson and Chelsea Jackson Roberts and other instructors at the lululemon Members' Weekend at PSNY on June 12 and 13, posting ahead of the event: "Some of your favorite lululemon ambassadors at your service." She was one of five instructors at the kickoff party panel discussion at the lululemon SoHo store, and in a fitting touch, the three signature mocktails served at the event were drawn from her own book. The appearance came just days before the Callie Gullickson maternity leave officially ended and she returned to the teaching schedule.
