Irene Kaymer / Irene Scholz rejoining Peloton to teach cycling & strength classes in 2024

Former Peloton instructor Irene Kaymer – who was originally known as Irene Scholz – is rejoining Peloton.

Irene Scholz left the company in 2021, and since then, has gotten married and had her first child.

Today, Peloton announced that Irene Kaymer will be coming back to Peloton in spring 2024. In addition to teaching German language cycling classes, she will also be teaching German language strength classes as well.

Peloton is hosting a London Calling German members weekend at Peloton Studios London this weekend – and Irene showed up in London for the weekend, interacting with both members and instructors.

Irene took Erik Jager’s cycling class today along with members, and even posed for the class thumbnail with Erik.

Irene Scholz is once again listed on the Peloton instructors website, and a press release has been put out confirming the news that Irene is rejoining.

In a quote, Irene Kaymer said:

“After taking a break over the past couple of years to focus on myself, getting married and starting a family, I decided to make the return to Peloton so that I can continue to share my love and passion for health and fitness. It has been an amazing experience reconnecting with the Peloton community, and I can’t wait to begin teaching Peloton Members across Germany and Austria, helping them stay motivated wherever they are in their own fitness journey.”

Irene also posted a message on her Instagram announcing her return. In her post, she said:

Life does crazy things sometimes… and I am more than grateful that life works that way ❤️

Today was such a beautiful moment. For one, to see @hauptstadttrainer kicking ass in an absolute fantastic class, secondly because already when I walked in the community showed me WHY I’ve been missing them all along and thirdly YES I will be back, soon and I seriously can’t wait for it all to unfold in so many beautiful ways.
THANK YOU for all your Energy, Love and throwbacks on old memories… I’ll be brushing up on dance moves and Tabatas, promise ✌🏽❤️

Thanks to my colleague @hauptstadttrainer for creating the magic and to everyone else in the team who just welcomed me with open arms!

The press release mentions that Irene will start teaching classes again in “Spring 2024” – so members still have a few months to wait.

The general manager of Peloton in Austria & Germany, Martin Richter, noted how instructors are a key part of the magic of Peloton, and bringing Irene back is “part of our continued investment in Germany and Austria”

Peloton is working on bringing more German language classes in various ways, not just through new instructors. They launched a German-language dubbed version of the Arms with Tunde program, and are teasing more dubbed classes in the near future.
