Meet Lea, the Owner of StarCycle Chesapeake 

Lea Barlett lives in Hampton Roads, Virginia with her husband Tony. She has been teaching health and fitness classes since 2012 and has earned certifications in HIIT, Pilates, Circuit Training, Aqua, PT, and of course, indoor cycling. 

Lea first fell in love with indoor cycling because it was a full-body, low-impact workout. Then she fell in love all over again when she visited StarCycle’s indoor cycling studio in Lake Oswego, Oregon in 2021. Lea loved the workout she got at StarCycle, but even more captivating was the feeling she got from being a part of something bigger. To Lea, StarCycle was not like other fitness centers she had been to—it was a lifestyle. 

Lea decided it was time to introduce the East Coast to this West Coast company and invite her home state of Virginia to clip in, check out, and ride!

Onsite Childcare 

In addition to beat-driven, 45-minute indoor cycling classes, StarCycle Chesapeake will be offering craft-based childcare with skilled caretakers at select times. That way, your little one can stay safe and entertained while you enjoy a sweaty, tech-free workout.

Did you know you can bring everything you love about StarCycle to YOU? We’re talking about your favorite instructors, fun music, high energy, and a booty kicking workout all in the comfort of your own home.

StarCycle On Demand offers an extensive library of classes to fit your needs and schedule. Short on time? We have 15 minute classes and 10 minute add-on options so you can mix and match. If you need more time to yourself, try a 30 or 45 minute class.

This all sounds great, but let’s be real–the hardest part of at-home workouts is making a motivating and comfortable environment. We have some tips and tricks so you can make the most out of your workout!

1. Minimize distractions as much as possible. Think about turning your phone on “do not disturb” or leaving it in the other room if you don’t need it for your workout. If you’re in the same room as a tv, make sure to turn it off. Consider putting away that pile of laundry or dirty dishes so you aren’t feeling bothered to clean up.
2. Don’t spend too much time trying to decide what video to watch. Sometimes this can take longer than the actual workout! We recommend trying raffle style. Number 1-10 pieces of paper, and draw a number out of a bowl. That’s the workout you’re going to do today!
3. Try playing your video on a larger screen. Use your iPad, laptop, or connect to Apple TV. You can even get old school and connect your computer to your tv with an HDMI cord. Think about using headphones or connecting to a bluetooth speaker if you can’t hook up to a tv.
4. Create the most in-person experience while at home. Sometimes the best part of being in class at a StarCycle studio is the dark, candlelit room. Light a few candles, turn off the lights and enjoy the ride!

We hope your next StarCycle class at home feels good, and there are less distractions. You can get your StarCycle On Demand monthly subscription for $19 each month, and a 7-day free trial!
