Why you loved them!
Sometimes it’s hard to pick just one favorite (clear by the number of bookmarked classes we have to “take later”), but these reviews make it easy! Here’s what the TCO Community had to say about their favorite classes from the last week.
1. Favorite Artist Series Class

01/08/2026 30 Minute Lorde Walk with Jess King
Daniel DePippa (#accidentalPR) recommended this class saying it had a “good class plan and great music.” Lorde’s music fits Jess’ vibe perfectly, and there’s a fabulous Flume remix in this class! The warmup includes a power walk, which gives you a clue about how Jess coaches walking classes. Over 5000 members have already taken this class – it’s definitely a fan favorite.
2. Favorite Cool Down Ride

01/08/2026 10 Minute Lorde Cool Down Ride with Christine D’Ercole
We don’t often feature cool down rides on our Top 5 – but we should! These can be used after cycling or any other workout to gradually lower your heart rate, but you can also use them when you have a short amount of time to work out. Also, it’s nice to have an artist series class that’s short if you’re unfamiliar with the artist and want to find out whether you like their vibe! Carrie McGilvery Logan recommended this class saying it has “excellent music and a chill vibe!” This class has four Lorde songs complemented by Christine’s chill vibe coaching.
3. Favorite Ride

01/07/2026 30 Minute 80’s Ride with Sam Yo
Laura Mounsteven recommended this class, saying it “was a VIBE. Great music, challenging but fun class plan – I was sweaty and happy when I finished it! I’ll be taking it again!” Amy Wickstrom also nominated this ride. If you’re an 80’s kid at heart you’ll recognize and sing along to every song in this ride, and you’ll also do some intervals, a climb, and a jog.
4. Favorite Walk+Run

12/31/2025 30 Minute Avicii Walk+Run with Olivia Amato
Megan Philman Pace recommended this walk+run. Megan said this class “was a lot of fun. I loved the timing of the intervals and the music was great, making the class fly by.” For those of you that haven’t taken any of Olivia’s classes, you’ll find that this class is a good example of why Walk+Run classes should be categorized as a run instead of a walk on the Peloton platform. The numerous blocks of challenging runs will make you enjoy the walking part!
5. Favorite Unstackable Core Class
Sometimes we want a class that leaves us in a puddle and washes all hope of a stack of extra classes away with it. We call those classes Unstackable, and we love hearing about our listeners’ Unstackable experiences.

06/12/2025 5 Minute Core Strength with Robin Arzon
Our very own helper bee Nikki Smith (#MySprtsBrasStuk) nominated this class, saying “ a 5-minute Unstackable? Yes, it’s true. Because it’s Robin, and she doesn’t believe in “breaks.” This class will leave your abs screaming and—if you aren’t careful—will grate your spine like a block of parmesan.
Usually, I stack Robin’s core classes like pancakes for breakfast, but this one? I was one and done. With single leg V ups, roll ups, bicycles and hollow body holds, all that “rocking and rolling” turned the core burn WAY up. Annnnnnd, I actually ended up with a raw spot on my spine to prove it. Worth it? Yes. Will I do this class again ASAP? Yes. Will I wear a thicker sports bra next time so I don’t lose a layer of skin? Also yes. Bottom line: If you have 5 minutes and want to feel like you’ve been through a blender, this is the class.” Sounds like an almost literal killer!
