Bike Studio is Virgin Voyages’ dedicated indoor cycling space, hosting spin classes and instructor-led cycling workouts throughout each voyage. Located within B Complex, the studio provides a purpose-built environment for sailors looking to add cardio training to their time on board.

Classes are suitable for a range of fitness levels, from first-time riders to experienced cyclists.

Spin Classes at Sea

The majority of activities held in Bike Studio are group cycling classes led by members of the fitness team. Sessions typically combine music, interval training, endurance work, and guided instruction to create a structured workout.

Class offerings can vary by voyage, but spin remains one of the most popular fitness activities available on board.

Equipment

Bike Studio is equipped with stationary spin bikes designed specifically for group cycling classes. Each bike can be adjusted to suit different riders, helping sailors find a comfortable riding position regardless of experience level.

The studio environment is designed to support high-energy workouts while providing clear visibility of the instructor throughout the class.

Fitness Team and Instruction

Classes are led by Virgin Voyages’ fitness instructors, who guide sailors through each workout and provide assistance with bike setup and riding technique where needed.

Whether you’re looking for a challenging cardio session or simply trying spin for the first time, instructors can help you get the most from the experience.

Part of B Complex

Bike Studio forms part of the wider B Complex fitness area, alongside facilities such as Training Camp, yoga and wellness spaces, strength training equipment, and personal training services.

Most classes require advance booking through the Virgin Voyages app, so it’s worth checking availability shortly after boarding.

    Quick update on this – at least from the Brilliant Lady which I disembarked yesterday. They do have clip-in shoes for you to use, although for sizes 42 European and smaller they only had 2-3 pairs of each (sizes 43+ they have loads). So if you only like to ride with clip-ins it may still be worth bringing your own.

    Do you happen to know if the spinning bikes are the kind where you clip into the pedals, and they provide the shoes with cleats (like Soulcycle etc)? Or are these the kind that you wear your own trainers for? Thanks!

      I was told to bring my spin shoes but you can also wear your sneakers. The bikes are compatible with the SPD (2 hole) not the Delta 3 hole. I did not hear this from Virgin, only a friend who was on it. I get a better workout with the spin shoes so definitely packing them.
