The “Irish Yank” Daniel McKenna leaves Peloton

Daniel McKenna is the next coach to leave Peloton. McKenna has been noticeably absent on both Peloton and social media since mid-September. This morning, Peloton officially announced that the “Irish Yank” will no longer be coaching.

Horrible, just horrible. What a huge loss. He had a tremendous following and was by far the best strength and tread instructor. There is no one like him, everyone is just boring compared to him. He is so amazing and motivating, big mistake on their part. Hopefully he gets picked up elsewhere and I will follow and ditch Peloton.

McKenna was brought to teach Peloton classes on the Tread, in addition to strength classes. His most popular classes, however, may have been his “Sent It” bootcamps.

This is the second Peloton instructor to leave this year since new CEO Barry McCarthy was brought on. However, unlike the previous instructor Chase (who we think was likely dropped for low class ratings), that does not seem to be the case here.

Let us know in the comments what you think, and if you were a fan on Daniel McKennas.
