Peloton Instructor Jess Sims on Big Transitions, Finding Connections, and What Wellness Item She Splurges On

March 03, 2021

Peloton's Jess Sims comes on the podcast to share her journey from teaching in a classroom to teaching in a Peloton studio. You'll hear her share more about her transition from education to fitness, why she didn't audition for Peloton when she was first invited to, her current big goal of prioritizing herself, and how she's reconnecting with others during the pandemic. You'll also get to enjoy some guest barks and growls from Sienna Grace and Shiloh.


Jess Sims is a Peloton instructor in New York City who teaches classes on the Tread, on the Floor, and on the Bike, bringing her background in athletics and her relatable leadership style to the Peloton community. But before that, she was an educator and a Teach For America alum, who taught a variety of grade levels and held many different administrative positions within schools, including principal. In 2016, Jess left her Masters degree and career in education behind to pursue her first and obvious love: fitness. In Fall 2018, Jess joined the Peloton family, and she recently became a Reebok athlete and a dog mom two times over.
