Xara

Hi CycleBar, I’m Xara! My cycling journey started back in 2022 when I was working reception at CycleBar. At the time, I had no plans of ever becoming an instructor. But over time, things started to click. Being around such a supportive and motivated community made a huge difference. I saw how much it meant to people, not just as a workout, but as a space to reset, to push themselves, or just to get through a tough day. Eventually, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and start the journey to become an instructor. Now, I get to be on the other side of the room, helping others find their own pace and strength in class. My favourite class format is a Classic. I love the balance between rhythm riding and performance metrics, it gives riders the chance to really feel the music but also push themselves with stats when they’re ready. When I’m not at the studio, I’m usually at uni, juggling assignments and deadlines. That’s why those 45-minute classes mean a lot, they’re a break from everything else. A space where I can just focus, ride, and clear my head.
