Melissa has an amazing vibe and energy that she brings to the academy training, it’s a course packed full of high energy and amazing knowledge.

I've been in further education for over 20 years. I have done countless courses, learning days and experiences. This is by far the best I have ever done, in any discipline. Melissa knows indoor cycling. Her intimate understanding of what works and why is at the heart of this course and she tells you the recipe needed to make your classes pop. It is well run, fun and well paced. She answers all emails and responds to everything with such genuine enthusiasm that she roll models how you will want to be with your students. I looked at and attended other indoor cycling certifications, but honestly this is the one.

6 weeks ago I came across the MPowered training academy after hours of research into indoor cycling certification and new immediately it was the course for me! As nervous as I was, everyone on the course was incredibly friendly and supportive, instantly making you feel more relaxed. It is very obvious that Melissa is extremely passionate about what she does and it is this attribute that sets the academy apart from any other! It was an absolute privilege to learn from such an incredibly knowledgeable and experienced instructor who’s passion and enthusiasm is infectious! Can’t wait to put it all into practice. Seriously, don’t look any further, get yourself booked on!

The MPowered academy is such an amazing programme for anyone looking to qualify to become an instructor or who just loves indoor cycling! Melissa has a wealth of experience, and through the course shares everything you need to know to be the best instructor you can be, whilst also having a great time! It is one of the best things I have ever done and cannot wait to get out there and start teaching and helping others fall in love with indoor cycling.

I went in to this course feeling nervous, as I was pretty new to indoor cycling . I knew there would be people much more experienced than me . But it really didn’t matter, not when you have Melissa Power! Everything was made crystal clear and demonstrated amazingly with the type of enthusiasm you can only get from someone who LOVES their job and wants to impart their wisdom on you. The energy she created was infectious and in that moment I knew that I would be hooked on indoor cycling! I’ve left feeling confident and secure with the enthusiasm to push further. If you want an amazing indoor cycling course then really look no further !!

Amazing course for anyone interested in getting their indoor cycling instructor course! Melissa is an incredible teacher and her knowledge knows no bounds. She's great at what she does and is an inspiration. 100% recommend :)

When I managed to secure a space on the MPowered Training Day I was super stoked. Melissa is a master of her craft and is so passionate about what she does that you can't help but feel passionate about it also. Everything is covered on this course and Melissa even helps with creating the perfect class playlist. So much information to take in but you also get a really concise manual to take away with everything that's been taught on the day. The fact that you automatically get an audition for some of the top health clubs in London is major and really distinguishes this course from others of its kind. Overall it was just a really supportive environment in a really great setting with everyone really eager to learn. Even though I am now a qualified instructor and have already secured teaching spots at several gyms (thanks Melissa!) I shall still be attending Melissa's classes on the reg as she's an absolute legend.

I can not recommend this course enough. Melissa delivers her huge amount of knowledge, with such passion and enthusiasm - which leaves you inspired and excited for what’s to come after the course. Spread over two days in an easy to get to gym less than a minutes walk from Bank station. Book this course - you will not be disappointed!!
Ben M
I would 100% recommend this course to anyone thinking about becoming an indoor cycling instructor! The 2 day course was packed with information, tips, awesome songs and some epic indoor cycling sessions! I learnt so much in this course, and came out buzzing with excitement. Melissa is SO inspiring and motivating, anyone thinking about it should just DO IT!
Kathryn B
Fantastic course to learn all you need to know about becoming an excellent indoor cycling instructor! Melissa has done countless classes and it shows in her expert advice, confident delivery of the materials and a lot of fun to go along with it! Plenty of time practicing different techniques on the bike as well as listening to the theory side. Lots to take away and refer to in future and a great course to take with a welcoming bunch. Would highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to get into the indoor cycling scene.

Melissa is an incredibly passionate teacher who will make you feel very comfortable and welcome giving you intensive and very informative course at the same time. She not only shared her knowledge, experience and expertise - she also created an amazing atmosphere that brought us trainees really close together (support was REAL)! If you have ever considered instructing indoor cycling there is no other place to go - combination of sport science, hours of practice, great music and tones of useful information that will bring your cycling and teaching skills to another level.

Incredible Indoor Cycling Course by the amazing & inspirational Melissa Power! I’ve just completed this training course as Melissa was recommended to me by a friend. Wow, such a great blended learning style - on the bike/classroom/interactional - the day flew by and so much information was given and retained! A fun yet challenging atmosphere with a true master/leader in this field. Highly recommended and so thankful for this experience. I feel ready and confident to teach and provide a holistically fun, safe, challenging & dynamic class!
Rebekah S
This Indoor Cycling course was two days of hard work and sweat and a weekend well spent! Melissa’s style of teaching and coaching is first class! I am still buzzing off the great vibes and energy, that every single one of us brought to the studio. We all got on so well and Melissa’s humour and encouragement kept us going every step of the way. I can not recommend Melissa and her programme enough to kickstart a career in Indoor Cycling. Go and get certified by her now! What...A...Ride!

Melissa’s Training Academy is an absolute standout indoor cycling experience. Don’t deliberate any longer, book the course NOW! I had the best day of beat riding learning ever with a great group of like minded attendees. Having already qualified in indoor cycling, I wanted to learn more about beat & performance riding to compliment my knowledge. The course not only met my expectations but surpassed them by a long shot.
Melissa is an inspiration for teaching and practical demonstration unrivalled in her area of expertise. The course is truly revolutionary and I loved every minute.
Thank you to Melissa, her teaching methods and practical expertise, I now feel ready to start my beat riding / indoor cycling combo classes with confidence. 🚴🏻♀️👍🚴🏻♀️
Susan F
The only thing more impressive than the energy and enthusiasm Melissa brought to the course was her depth and breadth of knowledge and her willingness to share it. A real eye-opener and an experience I am sure I will continually refer back to.

This was hands-down the best course I have ever done. As someone who has always struggled with maintaining focus in a 'classroom' setting, Melissa's engaging, succinct teaching style made learning a breeze. Melissa is a breath of fresh air in an age of online fitness charlatans and courses delivered by pretenders who have never really walked the walk. She is the real deal, to the point where the quality of her 45 minute 'demo' class on day one eclipsed any of the classes I have participated in with 'rock star' instructors from a leading indoor cycling brand. The course material covered all of my questions, and provided valuable insights into the areas I was already reasonably confident in, such as music selection and bike set up. Whether you are an experienced indoor cycling instructor wanting to take your classes to the next level, or an enthusiast looking to teach your first class, you will be very glad that you booked onto this course!
John M
Doing this Academy is the best decision I have ever made! Melissa is fun, so knowledgeable and passionate about indoor cycling that it's a dream being there. She provides lots of info beforehand and she helped us all so much throughout the training that I felt so safe and confident as soon as I arrived. The content is so useful and clear it was literally heaven. If you want to take your indoor cycling game to the next level MPowered is the way to go! :-)

I absolutely loved this course and am still buzzing from this weekend. I work in fitness and have taught indoor cycling informally for a while, and absolutely love it. But I wanted to be the very best instructor I can be and I knew I had to go on a well respected training course and gain a recognised certification. Melissa is the most natural, likeable and empowering lady you could ever have the pleasure to meet. She taught with such energy and love and her passion for indoor cycling shone through at all times. The course was engaging, fun and all content was relevant. I know that I’m a far better instructor today than I was on Friday, and I credit Melissa and her amazing talent for teaching and inspiring for that. If you have a real passion for indoor cycling; if it lights up your room and makes your heart sing, do this course and lead from the front; use your passion to bring joy to others in the same way. And get paid for it! What better job could there be in the world?! I feel 100% ‘MPowered’. Thank you!
Samantha VP
Simply the best. Clear and easy to follow tuition to create teachers of a very high standard. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to become an indoor cycling instructor. Melissa's energy, knowledge and experience are second to none.

I’m so pleased a managed to get a place on the MPowered indoor cycling instructor course with Melissa. I’ve learnt such a great unique skill and had so much fun doing it. I couldn’t recommend this more highly to anyone who wants to be an instructor or increase their indoor cycling skills.

The MPowered Indoor Cycling Academy is a fantastic way to learn the ins and outs of getting a room of people to safely sweat it out. The course is comprehensive, engaging and most of all heaps of fun. Having spent this weekend getting to grips with what it takes to be an instructor I can't wait to get out and start putting the lessons into practice. Melissa is a highly experienced pro at this and you'll struggle to find better. If you want to start out your instructing career on the best possible footing then this is the academy for you.
Nathan W
Without a doubt the most fun you will have learning ANYTHING. Melissa is the most inspiring, energetic and personable coach you will ever meet. With no prior experience required in PT, she somehow manages to teach you all you need to know in the funnest and most reassuring of environments. If you're even just considering learning more about indoor cycling or toying with becoming an instructor, sign yourself up immediately!

Took part in the MPowered Training Day and it was an absolute Blast. Facilities are great, very up to date software/bikes. Melissa definitely knows her stuff when it comes to indoor cycling and is wonderfully communicative and managed to convince me that i could teach on a bike, and i did! Would 100% recommend this course to anyone looking to get into indoor cycling, or just looking to expand their skill set. TLDR: Great Atmosphere, Amazing Knowledge, Brilliant People. Left feeling super confident and ready to go teach!
Michael S
Incredible course, valuable insights from a very experienced indoor cycling instructor and how she runs her classes. Learnt a lot about musicality and riding to the beat. Cannot recommend this course highly enough to anyone wishing to embark on a career as an indoor cycling instructor. Melissa will give you the confidence and the edge to be an excellent instructor. Plus it was fun and met some great people from all sorts of backgrounds that I wouldn’t usually meet!

What a fantastic and fun weekend! As soon as I made my enquiry with Melissa about the course details, qualifications etc. I got such a good vibe that I knew Melissa’s indoor cycling course was exactly the training course that I wanted to complete. I learnt so much and what I loved the most is that Melissa made sure that everyone felt as comfortable and at ease as possible. 100% I would recommend this course to anyone looking to get certified and have some giggles and laughs along the way!

I am so fortunate that I have been taught by the best indoor cycling instructor in the UK! Melissa has a wealth of experience in the field and is truly inspirational and full of energy. She motivated and supported us throughout the course. I feel that this certification will help me to stand out amongst other indoor cycling instructors as Melissa has taught us the best techniques on how to keep classes engaging and effective. The course was well structured and very informative. Melissa delivered high amount of information in a concise manner, really focusing on practical applications of theory that will definitely help us when we start teaching. She created a supportive and relaxed atmosphere where a group of great people trained very hard but at the same time had an amazing time. This course was unforgettable and I feel confident to start my own classes very soon. I am very grateful to Melissa for sharing her knowledge with us and highly recommend her course to others!
Justina K
If you want to be an indoor cycling instructor, I couldn’t recommend this course enough. Melissa is truly inspiring. She knows her stuff and brought amazing energy in both the theory, as well as the practical. In this two day course you learn a lot, off and on the bike. Melissa was nothing short of supportive, encouraging and funny! You will be well equipped to run your own classes after this.
Sinmi K
Such an amazing experience with a great group and an even better teacher. Melissa had obviously spend lots of time and effort putting the course together and it was a fantastic experience. Fun, motivational, informative and you come away feeling you are ready to teach and have all the skills for it. She is so supportive and anyone who is taught by her is very lucky! Highly recommend the course!!
