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 Holiday Walk

12/11/2025 30 Minute Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol Walk with Jon Hosking
Karen Smith shared her love for this walk, saying, “This walk had a permanent smile on my face the whole time. Not only did it bring a nostalgia for simpler times, but Jon and team did an amazing job bringing this story to life. I had fun recognizing the different instructors, and it made the time fly by. An instant Peloton classic, for sure!”
Marie KBurdick agreed, adding, “The short power walks were timed perfectly with the progression of the story. It was wonderful!”
The music in this class was perfectly curated to match the mood of the story, making it feel like you were walking through a winter wonderland. It’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit while staying active!
2. Favorite Rock Ride

12/06/2025 30 Minute Rock Ride with Charlotte Weidenbach
Courtenay Cassel Brinckerhoff nominated this ride, saying, “It’s an unofficial holiday ride with a great playlist whether you’re in the holiday spirit or not in the mood! Charlotte’s energy is unmatched, and the music will have you rocking out the entire time.”
This ride featured a mix of alternative rock hits that kept the energy high and the pedals moving. Charlotte’s enthusiasm and the perfectly timed intervals made it feel like a concert on wheels.
3. Favorite Row

12/06/2025 30 Minute Pop Row with Alex Karwoski
Cat Gotti shared her thoughts on this row, saying, “It’s so motivating and a great reminder that we can do hard things. 💙 Love how Alex blends his storytelling into the whole row!”
Becky Kithcart Gomez also loved this class, saying, “It was so fun! Great playlist, and Alex was just as nice and funny in person as he appears on screen!”
The playlist was packed with pop anthems that you can’t help but sing along to, making the hard work feel a little easier. Alex’s humor and encouragement made this class a standout for the week.
4. Favorite Yoga + Pilates Class

12/5/2025 30 Minute Premiere Yoga + Pilates with Johanna Ricouz
Celestine Rojas McNamara shared her love for this class, saying, “Great energy. Beautiful flow. Clear instruction. Amazing music and pacing. Easily my favorite class of hers so far.”
The class featured a calming yet energizing playlist that perfectly complemented the flow. Johanna’s clear guidance and positive energy made it easy to stay present and enjoy every moment of this unique blend of yoga and Pilates. Congrats to Johanna for making it into the Top 5 on week 2!
5. Favorite Unstackable Run
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.

12/13/2025 45 Minute Taylor Swift The Eras Tour Run with Mariana Fernández
Oliver Long raved about this run, saying, “A fun mix of incline, endurance, and interval efforts. Mariana shares her love for Taylor Swift’s music and plays some of her biggest unedited hits from across the years. It’s a must for Swifties!” Oliver also adds, “To fellow middle aged UK (uck) runners it should be noted that a Swiftie in this context is a Taylor Swift fan and not what you say when you only have time for a quick post-work pint. Leaderboard Oliver_Long
This run was a journey through Taylor Swift’s iconic eras, with hits that kept the energy high and the motivation even higher. Mariana’s love for the music shone through, making it feel like a personal concert combined with a killer workout.
