Homecoming 2022 - Better, Together
Homecoming 2022 key art
At Peloton, we celebrate our Members every day! But Homecoming is a special time where we gather to celebrate together as a community. The event was created for our Members, by our Members, as a special way to bring our Leaderboard of 7 million Members together - and this year is no exception as we celebrate Peloton’s 10th anniversary!
Starting May 13, Members from around the world are tuning in for the livestream of a keynote speech introducing Barry McCarthy, Peloton’s President and CEO, to the Peloton community - along with special announcements from the Instructor team which include:
Connected Fitness
We’re G[row]ing: The rumors are true - Peloton will be bringing its best-in-class fitness experience to the world of rowing! Combining cardio and strength - Peloton is excited to add this total body workout into its powerhouse arsenal of content and grow its connected fitness portfolio with even more options for engaging and challenging workout experiences.
Programming
Arms with Tunde: This four-week program is designed to train Members’ arms and shoulders by leveling up strength training with heavier weights - and the results will speak for themselves. Live now, this program is exclusive to Peloton Guide for seven weeks before being available on the Peloton platform.
Peak Your Power Zones Program - For Members who are ready to level-up their training, clip into Peloton’s newest Power Zone program. Over the course of 8 weeks, Peloton Power Zone Instructors will help Members build their ‘Functional Threshold Power’ for endurance and maximum output.
The Approach: Path to Inversion with Kirra: As the second installment of the new Yoga program series “The Approach” - this two week program designed by Kirra Michel will guide Members through the foundations of working towards an inversion by focusing on technique, mobility and conditioning work. Stay tuned for more!
Members also have a lot to look forward to, with brand new software features focused on community and accessibility.
Features
Invite Friends:Coming soon, we're launching the ability to schedule workouts with friends, directly from your Peloton Bike, Tread and App. Invite Friends makes coordinating and keeping track of group workouts easy, and allows Members to name their workout occasion so their friends know if it's a birthday celebration or just another 6 AM sweat session. Start classes at the same time, and ride, run, lift and flow in-sync.
Just Work Out: Consistently a top requested feature, *soon* Members will be able to track freeform workouts - like outdoor running, cycling, and walking - on the Peloton App. In addition to being able to listen to their own music, connect to a heart rate monitor, and track their route along with other metrics - these workouts will count towards Member streaks, challenges, achievements, and more.
TalkBack on Tread: As part of Peloton's commitment to providing the most immersive and accessible fitness experience, soon, blind and low vision Members will be able to navigate and access programming and metrics on the Tread via Google’s TalkBack screen reader, and will also receive real-time feedback about their speed and incline changes.
Studios
Summer of Together: Our global community is united by a spirit of togetherness and we’re excited to share that this summer - the Peloton Studios in New York and London will open its doors for Members. Peloton looks forward to celebrating this milestone with Members as well as closing out the season strong with the annual All for One Music festival in August.
We’re also excited to continue working with our Peloton Pledge partners and we are donating an additional $25,000 to The Steve Fund, to expand their work to increase access to culturally competent mental health resources for young people of color. We are also donating an additional €20,000 to help our Pledge partner Ipso expand their psychosocial counseling services for migrants and refugees living in Germany.
Homecoming festivities will continue with an action-packed agenda featuring live panel discussions with instructors and experts in their field, as well as engaging community activities like 1:1 video conversations and live classes featuring our latest Artist Series with Fleetwood Mac, one of the most influential and culturally resonant bands of all time, which can be enjoyed across multiple fitness modalities including Guide Strength, Cycling, Tread and Yoga Flow! Not able to make it? The discussions and panels from Homecoming 2022 will be made available on-demand on May 15!
