Get ready to RYDE.

Taking the fitness industry by storm, Leeds is now home to a brand new boutique fitness studio called RYDE.

A huge £400,000 investment has brought two high-tech studios to Leeds where RYDE hopes to attract clients "from all walks of life" and facilitate an immersive workout for the entire body.

Designed to leave those working out energised and hungry for more, there's a wealth of high-impact and high-energy classes on offer, all to the beat of uplifting music to get gym-goers pumped each session.

Expect technical lighting systems, experienced instructors and state-of-the-art equipment befitting of a five-star hotel- and that's just the beginning.

The idea with RYDE is that it offers a personalised experience, bespoke to each individual need. With this in mind, the boutique company doesn't subscribe to long-term memberships (unless that's what you're after) and instead opts for blocks of session bookings so guests can trial a range of activities without the stress of everlasting membership.

Unique to RYDE are three classes, each with a different beat and tempo: RYDE Cycle is a full-body rhythm workout that promises to raise temperatures and challenge clients both physically and mentally whilst RYDE Flow is an athletic style yoga session concentrating on cardio sequences and strengthening the full body.

Finally, RYDE Barre is a bass-heavy workout designed for lengthening, strengthening and defining muscles.

Owner Kyle Harris, a keen observer of fitness trends wanting to bring the best of what's going on in London and New York to Leeds. Speaking ahead of the launch, Kylesaid:

“In the midst of a global struggle over the past couple of years for so many, I took the opportunity to ignite my ideas and bring them to life - I am so excited for the upcoming launch of RYDE. A boutique studio in the heart of the city centre which is set to empower and inspire you in both mind, body and spirit.''

''Whether you’re on the bike, in the studio or popping in for a coffee you’ll become a part of the community from the get-go! We have future plans to expand across the UK and beyond, with Leeds as our home-hub and founding studio. This is the start of something magical and we can not wait to welcome everyone this Summer.”
