Black History Month is observed in October in the United Kingdom, rather than February as it is in the United States, and Peloton has separate programming for the two celebrations. Peloton has released UK Black History Month classes every year since 2020.

Ally Love’s Dance Music Ride on October 23 is also the class we first shared last week, with Ally traveling to Peloton Studios London to teach it.

The structure has changed again this year. Last year’s classes rolled out weekly, beginning with “Black UK Legends” workouts, while the 2024 celebration was organized around four themes: Black Around the World, Black British Radio, Oldies but Goodies, and Afro-ALT Hits.

Peloton also created special UK Black History Month badges in both 2024 and 2025, with the new 2026 badge continuing that recent pattern.
