Build a strong indoor cycling team
Finding someone who can ride a bike and fill a class isn't the same as finding a good instructor. We can help you recruit, assess and onboard instructors with the knowledge and skills your riders need.
Recruiting indoor cycling instructors can be difficult, particularly when indoor cycling isn't your own specialist area.
You need to know what to look for, what to ask and how to assess an audition fairly. You also need a process that helps a new instructor settle into your facility and understand what you expect from them.
ICI's recruitment training and manager resources are designed to make that job easier and give you a more consistent way to recruit and manage your instructor team.
A better recruitment process
Good recruitment is about more than finding somebody available for Tuesday evenings.
Know what you're looking for
Define the qualities, knowledge and practical skills you actually need before you start reviewing applicants.
Interview and audition properly
Use a structured process to look beyond personality and assess whether somebody can actually do the job well.
Set expectations early
Give new instructors a clear introduction to your facility, riders, procedures and the standards you expect.
Keep good instructors
Support development, deal with problems properly and give instructors reasons to stay with your facility.
Indoor Cycling Instructor Recruitment
A complete course for managers who need to find, assess, onboard and retain indoor cycling instructors.
It takes you through the recruitment process from deciding what you're looking for through interviews and auditions to onboarding, motivation, retention and common staffing problems.

You shouldn't have to remember every question to ask or every detail to check. We're building a practical collection of free ICI resources that managers can use during recruitment, onboarding and routine instructor management.
Instructor audition checklist
A structured prompt for observing an audition and recording what you actually saw, rather than relying on a general impression afterwards.
New instructor onboarding checklist
A practical checklist for the things a new instructor should know about your studio, equipment, procedures and expectations before taking over a class.
Instructor review checklist
A simple framework for periodic check-ins and observations, helping you record strengths, concerns and development needs consistently.
Keep an eye on what matters
Once somebody is on the timetable, occasional structured observation is more useful than waiting until a rider complains.
Your checklist doesn't need to turn you into an indoor cycling expert. It should help you notice the things that deserve attention and record what you've seen clearly.
Recruit with more confidence
Use the ICI recruitment course for the complete process, or use our manager resources when you need a practical tool for a particular job.
