If 2020 taught us anything positive, it’s that we are done taking any excuses for brands not having inclusive and diverse content. Whether it’s makeup brands offering limited shade ranges for foundation or clothing companies offering only size small through large, consumers have made it clear that this is a priority going forward.
Peloton is one of the most inclusive brands in fitness and repeatedly demonstrates their commitment to diversity. I’ve rounded up the top five rides dedicated to not just acknowledging diversity but actively celebrating different minority cultures. I challenge each of you to go out of your comfort zone and take the challenge to complete five rides that celebrate diverse voices. As always, these templates are saved on my Instagram stories highlights for your convenience.
