How Much Does a Peloton Instructor Make?
Ally Love, Cody Rigsby, Jess King, Alex Toussaint, Tunde Oyeneyin, Sam Yo  they're all such a critical part of your Peloton fitness journey. On a daily basis, each Peloton instructor comes out with a new, exciting class to try, whether that be a 20-minute pop cycling ride or a an hour-long bootcamp for runners. It's evident that despite the pressure to constantly create new content, each instructor looks more than happy to put in the time and energy (and we're so grateful they do!). Thankfully, it sounds like Peloton recognizes this hard work and rewards its instructors for representing the premier fitness brand so very well. Though Peloton has never released set salary figures for its instructors, we can roughly gauge what your teachers are making based on what some have told various media outlets. Of course, just like in other jobs, some are likely paid more than others, perhaps due to the number of classes they teach, prior experience and/or title differences (for example, Cody is Peloton's Cycling Director who helps recruit other instructors to the company).

Keeping that very important caveat in mind, NYC-based tread instructor Jess Sims told The Wall Street Journal in 2019 that she made "six figures with stock options." She also gushed to the newspaper that Peloton was "easily the best job you could have as a fitness instructor because we are treated like professional athletes. We get paid time off. We go to physical therapy every single week to prevent injuries." A Bloomberg report from 2021 also seems to confirm Jess's claims:  One instructor last year received a six-figure salary and bonus offer. More-senior instructors make upwards of $500,000 in total compensation, say people familiar with the company  not counting the money they can make from external sponsorships. [Peloton founder John Foley], a big believer in shared ownership, has also handed equity awards to people throughout the companys ranks. Regulatory filings show current and former employees as of Sept. 30, 2020, held stock options with several billion dollars of unrealized gains. Again, while we don't know for sure that each instructor earns a six-figure salary, it does sound like from these two reports that the company treats them well. In fact, The New York Post recently reported that Cody closed on a $1.46 million penthouse in Brooklyn, New York. This content is imported from Instagram.

To become part of team Peloton, London-based cycling instructor Leanne Hainsby told Metro that the company makes sure to hire those who are qualified indoor instructors. "There are three levels that you can complete and they are offered through a range of fitness providers," she explained to the outlet. "How long it takes to finish the course depends who you go with  it can be a few weeks or even a few months  and you will need to pay for most of them." As for Leanne, she takes yoga and works out four to five times per week and trains with a personal trainer two to three times per week, in addition to the Peloton classes she teaches.
