Amazing studio — Leah and Victoria are gifted instructors. Before I started here about 18 months ago, not only did I dislike stationary bikes, I did NO cardio. Now I am going twice per week and look forward to it. This studio has a unique sense of community which is addictive, and it is very clean and well run. Leah and Victoria motivate their classes to push harder, but the great thing with Spin is that you are in charge of your intensity level, so it works for beginners as well as competitive athletes. Highly recommend giving it a try!

I love Momentum I decided to try it after a foot surgery and I love it. Victoria is so amazing her classes are out of this world! You know it’s a good class when somebody keep you full of energy and sweating at 6 am.
If you have not give a try it you don’t know what are you missing. Besides she is so beautiful in and out

Better than soulcycle. they turn on fans halfway through class (no fans on during class at soulcycle). And they ask you for some input on music… apparently they have themed music days here. Finally, the lights are on during class!
They do some good multi-​class packages onlne too. I will return.

Combines an ass-​kicking hour of sweat with a «all are welcome, all levels can rock out» vibe.
Victoria WORKS from the front of the room — just watching her sweat is in inspiration, but she’s also got a great gift to talk you on through a solid 60+ minutes of flat out exertion. It feels good to have a teacher who’s working even harder than I am — a kick in the pants. The happy hour ride combines day-​ending relaxation with non-​stop cardio, believe it or not.
Definitely friendly to beginners — no one can see what difficulty level you set your bike to, so there’s no shame in finding your own sweet spot, whether that’s killer or mellow.
A must-​do in Los Altos.

So I’ll admit I haven’t been to a spin class since I started crossfit fit a few years ago, but all the great reviews and a broken toe brought me to this fabulous studio in downtown Los altos this morning. I had the pleasure of taking Victorias class who is also the owner of the studio and she in just one class got me to love spinning again! It’s such a great environment– Victoria seemed to know everyone in the class today and kept giving me props for riding with a broken toe. She even sent me an email to see how my foot was doing since I had to leave before class was over. If your looking for a clean, state of the art, high energy and most of all fun work out this is the place for you!

I cannot say enough good things about Victoria and Momentum Cycling Studio.
For my fiancé and I, Tuesday night spin at Momentum is our one regular «evening out» together. We always look forward to Victoria’s amazing music selection and her *intense* rides. We feel wonderful after class and we enjoy talking about the ride and how we felt. It is a wonderful way to start the week and it is a special activity that we love to do together.

Wow! I just took my first spinning class and I’m drenched from head to toe — even my shoes are soaked. Great studio, great bikes, great instructor (Victoria) & a great workout. Was difficult and fun at the same time. Highly recommended!

You know that feeling after an intense workout? Exhausted but high on endorphins… that’s how I feel every time I leave momentum.
Victoria, Leah, Mark and the rest of the momentum instructors will give you the best cycling workout of your life! They will push you to the limit with great music and a challenging workout every time. If you want a fun, inspiring and intense workout then this is the place for you.
I live in SF and I’m not the only one ‘commuting’ to Los Altos for weekend workouts with Victoria, she really is that good!

If you’re looking to get an intense indoors workout as if you’re riding outside, Momentum is at close as it gets to riding outdoors.
Climbing hills, sprinting, and time-​trials are just a few techniques Victoria uses to bring the real life mountain biking experience into her studio.
I’ve taken cycling classes all over the country and Victoria’s class is by far the most intense and fun class there is. Maybe the only class that increases my heart rate to its Max.
If you don’t care about your technique on the bike and just want to have fun, Victoria’s enthusiasm and the music she plays will get you all pumped up, making the Momentum experience a great cycling experience.
P. S. If you’re a music junkie like me you’ll LOVEEE all the house and trance music playing while you work your butt off!

I agree with Anne C! We are so fortunate to finally have a world class cycling studio in sleepy little Los Altos. Victoria is a great instructor who somehow manages to pack in an intense workout with lots of humor and fun at the same time. Workout time goes by quickly and I feel like I did something the next day.
I“ve also been to Soul Cycle at Stanford Mall and felt ripped off. It’s twice the cost of Momentum, the riders are right on top of each other and no one pays any attention to form or substance in there (it’s pitch black). The candles creeped me out, and I found my mind wandering about all the other errands and things I needed to get done that day. I was not focused on my workout or my form at all. They did have decent music though.
Momentum on the other hand is very down to earth. The studio has great light, is ventilated well and has a wonderful vibe. You can easily reserve a bike online and parking is easy and uncomplicated. Los Altos is finally coming into the new millienium!

If you are looking for a place that is primarily devoted to spin, Momentum Cycling Studio is that place. I’ve taken spin classes at other gyms and the quality of the classes is much better here. I have taken classes with both Victoria and Leah and they are awesome! They encourage you to do your best and the classes are good for all levels of spinners. I just wish my schedule was more regular so that I could take more classes.

Wow. Took a class last night with Jackie and loved it! Been looking for something to do for a workout. I am not in shape, and I was scared to death that I would embarrass myself. But the owner Victoria took the time to show me exactly what to do, and the trainer Jackie was supportive and inspiring. I left feeling empowered and awesome. You can go at you pace, which makes this place great for beginners and real cyclists. But you will definitely sweat! The studio is new and clean with great equipment, music, etc. I am hooked!

I am SO THANKFUL that Momentum Cycling came to Los Altos! It is the perfect workout with bikes that are state of the art, instructors that motivate you to take it to the next level, and an overall environment that makes you go into the zone. I’ve been taking classes for about two months and I can tell the difference in my leg strength and overall mood. I didn’t think that I could make it through a class when I started, and now I can’t imagine not taking classes multiple times a week. The owner has created an inspirational and supportive culture in the studio, and riding with the group pushes me further than I would go if riding alone. You have to try it!

First class spinning. you will be challenged and you will get stronger. Victoria is simply the best. You will not be dissappointed. Whether you are a first time rider or experienced road cyclist she has the perfect balance of personality and experience. I go 4 times a week and can’t seem to get enough of her classes!
